This is a car that responds to the emotions of the people inside. If it senses a happy mood it automatically takes a picture. (How Japaneese) I need to setup a ubicomp topic. I wrote a paper in college about how potential privacy concerns with ubicomp recording systems in might be curtailed if the system could judge your emotional reaction to a context and file the data accordingly... IMHO this car will "get it wrong" and it will take a while before this sort of stuff is accurate. A funny post from slashdot: Susie: MMmmmmmsmack!kissgrope! David: MMmmsmack!gropekiss! Susie: Slurpgurglesuck! David: Slurplicklicklick! Car: Oooh! Happy moment! Everybody smile! [photoflash!] ...next day... Mom: Susie, I just had the car photos processed... I wanna have a word with you... |
