    I reckon anything to make your face LOOK DIFFERENT than the one they have would work......

    There's always the old fashioned method, a ski mask. Just don't walk into a bank.

    I've been told by an animal rights activist friend that wearing a cap on the street makes facial recognition cameras harder to identify you, apparently the wing cap shadows part of your face and makes their job more difficult, with the added benefit that a cap can not be considered a disguise.

    most of these will fail as soon as they have a picture of you wearing the glasses/partial mask. The only fool proof way is the ski mask or a see through plastic mask (they bend light making IDing next to impossible).

    If you want to try this download something like Private Eye or another facial recognition program with a free trail. add yourself wearing the glasses and it will see you from now on. Assume law enforcement will do this.
