I don't have any specific technical info. I just know that even 3 years ago the face recognition tech in Moscow could successfully match people even with sunglasses on.
The question is whether they were using infrared to see through normal sunglasses. IR blocking sunglasses prevent "night vision" from seeing through the lenses. Under infared, you can see through normal dark sunglasses like they aren't even there.
