Video
Analytics as a whole is a relatively new technique, therefore the impact it
will have in the future is still relatively uncertain.
Let´s look at
this as if it were an emerging country: A lot of opportunities to take
advantages from but also some risks that should be taken into account.
During these
months we tried to explain the main topics related to video analytics all the
while being aware that, some applications could carry some precautions.
Nowadays we tend
to trust our devices but… would you trust to 100% a car that is being driven by
itself? Would you feel safe taking curves on a rainy day?
Not every
alarm received from our fall detectors will mean a suicide and not every
suspicious behavior that our camera is detecting will be a terrorist trying to place
a bomb. Technology works for us, but it is our duty to filter and control this
information.
At the same
time that technology is evolving, the applications we make of it are increasing
too. So it is easy to guess that in 10 years a lot of different branches will
have grown from the core idea of Video Analytics.
The main
challenge for the future is not to come up with new inventions, if not making
them completely reliable.
For example,
in terms of security we live in a world where new threats are arising every day:
imagine that someone can potentially hack your Google Car and drives it out of
your sight.
From SmarterView,
we cannot predict the future inventions related to technology, but two things are
clear: Video Analytics trends will squeeze them to improve our welfare and,
above all, SmarterView will be here to tell you the news.
