Camera Mismatched Ears
Subtle feature changes — usually the ears — that only appear when you compare the desk view to the CCTV.
Overview
This is the CCTV cousin of the photo mismatch anomalies. The patient’s ears — or occasionally another small feature — look one way at the check-in window and subtly different on the security feed.
The differences are deliberately subtle, which makes this one of the easier camera anomalies to wave through. If you only give the CCTV a quick glance rather than an actual comparison, the mismatch will not register.
Compare the two views carefully: hold the appearance you saw at the desk against what the camera shows. If the camera version of the ears does not match, deny entry.
How to spot the Camera Mismatched Ears anomaly
The ears or other features differ between how the patient looks at the desk and on the camera feed.
Pro tips
- Note the ear shape at the desk BEFORE you switch to the camera, so you have something to compare against.
- As with the photo version, ears are the usual target — check them first on the feed.
How to handle it
Compare desk vs camera, then deny.
- Treating the CCTV as a formality and not actually comparing it to the desk view.
