You would have thought that police would have upped the quality frames per second thingy, or get higher resolutioned cameras in those places where the crime rate is higher.. yeah, that would work I guess, but it's not very interesting. Cameras sit on the wall all day and watch nasty things or nothing
happen, and when it's too late we respond. Pointless.
Or... they could follow my emergency protocol *evil smile*
Person enters store though those bleepy frames that they have nowadays to find shoplifters, but it also scans them and using a high tech verification programme that matches up the person with their personal record file in the police station uber-database thingy. It checks their criminal record and sends the info to the surveillance cameras around the store. Each camera has a complex vision thing that locks onto one person, and the lens is sort of like a spider's; each eye views a different person until he/she leaves. Actions of pinching things from shelves and robbing the tills activate a special control in the camera; a siren sounds and a metallic voice alerts everyone of the situation, using their full name for public humiliation and little model guns pop out the side to scare the target. If he/she proceeds to being evil, (actions of progression are booked to identify how to um.. identify), it gets a bit louder and alerts the police immediately. A paintball gun is lowered from the bottom and is aimed at the target's legs and arms, and it shoots. The police should have arrived by then, and when they do, they disable the control by saying something. The wave frequency of their voice is identified and matched up with them saying it before, and it doesn't have to be perfect for it to stop. The guys in uniform take it from there.
I know my protocol is not practical, so ease off the criticism a bit, please ^^

And how does it differentiate between "pinching" and shopping? Is this alarm going to go off if I grab a pack of gum? How is anybody supposed to shop? Another problem is that not everybody has pictures in a police database, usually only people who already have criminal records. |

Can you say "Invasion of privacy"? I thought you could. |

ISTR that something a little like
this is being deployed in England
- apparently an algorythm for
deducing possible "suspicious
behaviour" from urban CCTVs,
which will alert a human
operator to have a closer squizz. |

I'm pretty sure I don't want Coles
(Tesco's/Wal-Mart) having access
to criminal record databases. |

They tend to make their own unofficial ones. Any half decent security camera operator will have a wall full of stills of the local prolific shoplifters, coupled with a list of names for those they've caught. They watch the f**kers like hawks, and zoom in as apt, but some 'lifters are cute enough to know when shelving or even advertising displays will obscure the camera view. |

On a separate point, Most cctv in the UK is operated and controlled by local councils and the stores themselves, and some are very reluctant to let cops anywhere near the live screens or be actively involved in the positioning/focus of the cameras. |

As 21 on the practicality of the software's AI. I seem to remember a research project a couple of years back. They were looking to create software that could detect (and report) accidents and falls in sheltered accommodation, through the realtime analysis of cctv footage. What you're asking for here is way beyond that. |

I thought this was an idea to have software
on people's regular cameras so that when
people are not using their cameras they
can leave them on a window sill looking
out at the street and will record
movement/motion. It would be just like a
security camera posse. |

But your idea is jus' crazy, you know, it
having it's own weapons and all. |
