Great idea of Pointgrab project
Save energy:This could be based on detection of lighted lights and presence of people in room. In case, People are no longer in room algorithm could make a decision to switch the lights off. This technology can also make a decision like, You are going sit into a chair lets switch main lighting of the room off and turn on small lamp close to you.
This is some of great example how this technology could save the many.
The only problem that I see here is false detections that could switch light on or call security agency in wrong time. The algorithm could works perfectly for 99 percentage time of the day but wrong alerts are problem in many situations.
Another advantages is image processing on sensor level. Tracking and location on sensor level could be anonymous enough for most of us.
I am thankful for this blog to gave me much knowledge regarding my area of work. I also want to make some addition on this platform which must be in knowledge of people who really in need. Thanks. Face recognition Mobile apps
I saw this post. You are really great. Keep Up the Good Work man.
