Google announced this week that movies on Google Play will soon have information cards that will use facial recognition technology to help users identify individual actors, so now when watching a movie with friends any dispute over what else a particular actor has been in can be solved by hitting pause and circling the face of the actor on the screen thereby bringing up relevant information. Initially this function will only be available to US users on devices running Android 4.0 and higher, but is expected to roll out to more countries soon.
