[ Cisco sets down the beer as casually as he can without opening it, like he just isn't thirsty quite yet. ]
The science thing is going great. I'm working on facial recognition tech, right now. So... a program that you could put in a pair of sunglasses, or a visor, and when I looked at you, it would take a picture of your face, and compare it to other pictures of your face that it's got in it's- in it's stored memory, and it would be able to come up with a little label that says "aha, that's Magnus!"
[ He could delve much more into the specifics, the nitty gritty details of how he is tweaking the software to be faster, more accurate in low light and despite disguises and while moving, but Magnus doesn't need to know all that. All he needs to know is the broad strokes, and why it matters. ]
Gonna use it for some visors for the cops and the Perimeter Guard, make it easier to tell who is who in a crowd, spot anyone that's out of place, make sure nobody ends up shooting a teammate or a civilian.
[ It's yet another instance of technology that Cisco knows could be misused, but he's going to put in plenty of safeguards, make it so that if any of the visors are stolen, they'll become useless almost immediately. Failsafes upon failsafes. The one silver lining to the whole catastrophe with the heat and cold guns is that he's much much more careful, now. ]
What about you, how's carpentry stuff? Any interesting projects recently?
