Oh my!
You do realize that major wars have been fought over questions of ethnicity? Does the term "ethnic cleansing" mean anything to you? Just one picture, run it through your software, and you can tell the ethnic mix, which some people would use as a life or death criteria ? I recommend you read some history, such as about the One Drop Rule.
I would thus highly recommend that you only consider going forward with this project if you already know that it will definitely fail, and that if you have reason to believe it might be successful, then you should refuse it on ethical grounds.

Have you considered increasing the resolution of the cameras? Have you considered using something like Compressive Sensing techniques?
