Surveillance has become ubiquitous. From video cameras in public spaces to internet-enabled devices, wireless sensor networks and flying drones, privacy is becoming a scarce resource. What if, instead of resisting the use of surveillance technology, we could harness it for the public good?
This three-part workshop will allow students to develop a small experimental project based on low cost open hardware real-time video streaming kits developed by the ARTIVIS project.
