« Drones, logiciels prédictifs, vidéosurveillance algorithmique, reconnaissance faciale : le recours aux dernières technologies de contrôle se banalise au sein de la police. Loin de juguler la criminalité, toutes ces innovations contribuent en réalité à amplifier la violence d’État. Elles referment nos imaginaires politiques et placent la ville sous contrôle sécuritaire. C’est ce que montre ce livre à partir d’expériences et de savoirs forgés au cours des luttes récentes contre la surveillance policière. De l’industrie de la sécurité aux arcanes du ministère de l’Intérieur, de la CNIL au véhicule de l’officier en patrouille, il retrace les liens qu’entretient l’hégémonie techno-solutionniste avec la dérive autoritaire en cours. »

Samsung NX camera to Mastodon bridge

From 2009 to 2014, Samsung released dozens of camera models and even some camcorders with built-in WiFi and a feature to upload photos and videos to social media, using Samsung's Social Network Services (SNS). That service was discontinued in 2021, leaving the cameras disconnected.

We are bringing a reverse-engineered API implementation of the SNS to a 20$ LTE modem stick in order to email or publish our photos to Mastodon on the go.

Police Departments Are Turning to AI to Sift Through Millions of Hours of Unreviewed Body-Cam Footage

Body camera video equivalent to 25 million copies of “Barbie” is collected but rarely reviewed. Some cities are looking to new technology to examine this stockpile of footage to identify problematic officers and patterns of behavior.

Dutch wind farm to save eagles’ lives with #smart #cameras on #turbines

One of the biggest criticisms of the #wind farm proliferation in Europe has been the harm that the blades of the turbines cause to the local birdlife. Now it seems that there is a solution being tried out by a wind farm in Zeewolde (Netherlands), which involves the installation of smart cameras on the wind turbines.

The essence of the project is to have the cameras stop the rotation of the blades automatically if they identify the incoming object as an eagle, thus preventing a collision and injury or death to the animal. The smart device will be able to detect an object from a distance of 1,100 metres and then if the object closes in, at 300 metres the camera will identify it as an eagle and automatically stop the blades for a few minutes.

Why #eagles? Apart from the fact that they are rare and protected animals, being apex predators, their attention is usually focused on the ground below in search of prey. Thus, they might not even notice that there is an object ahead of them.

Next year, a wind farm in Zeewolde (Netherlands) will install smart cameras on its wind turbines with the aim of preventing collision between protected sea eagles and the blades.

DXOMARK’s Apple iPhone 15 Pro Camera test: They won’t like being rated Global no2 behind Huawei P60 Pro

We do need to keep in mind that the iPhone is overall a very quality piece of phone hardware (although I’m no fan of their restrictive OS philosophy), and also that this is a pure camera rating (not an overall phone rating).

But it also shows how really good the Huawei hardware is. Another thing that becomes clear from these ratings is, more megapixels does not equal the better camera. The Google Pixel series has also been proof of there, with Google really pulling way ahead, with more credit to the software than the hardware.

These are real world benchmarks though, and nothing at all to do with specifications on paper or marketing fluff, which is why I like them.

DPReview will live: Gear Patrol has purchased it from Amazon

“Gear Patrol is a natural home for the next phase of DPReview’s journey, and I’m excited to see what we can accomplish together,” said Everett. “Thank you for your continued support of our team and legacy. We appreciate it and can’t thank you all enough.”

Everett says in his announcement that current core employees across the company’s editorial, tech, and business divisions will continue to work on the site. He also says that DPReview site features and editorial coverage won’t be impacted by the acquisition and that the website will continue to operate as it did before the purchase.

“DPReview is the internet’s original center of gravity for photography,” says Eric Yang, CEO and founder of Gear Patrol.

And that is why there was such concern amongst photographers about the site being shut down by Amazon. After 25 years of operation, it contains a vast wealth of review data and content about most new cameras launched during this period, and it was feared this was going to all be lost.

Le Sénat a donné, mercredi 7 juin dans la soirée, son feu vert à une disposition controversée du projet de loi sur la justice autorisant le déclenchement à distance des caméras ou micros des téléphones dans certaines enquêtes, à l'insu des personnes visées. L'article 3 du texte porté par le garde des Sceaux, Eric Dupond-Moretti, examiné en première lecture par les sénateurs, apporte plusieurs modifications à la procédure pénale.\
\
La mesure votée mercredi a deux finalités. D'une part, la géolocalisation en temps réel pour certaines infractions. D'autre part, l'activation de micros et caméras pour capter son et images, qui serait réservée aux affaires de terrorisme, de délinquance et de criminalité organisées.

The Senate gave, Wednesday, June 7 in the evening, the green light to a controversial provision of the justice bill authorizing the remote triggering of cameras or telephone microphones in certain investigations, without the knowledge of the persons concerned. Article 3 of the text carried by the Keeper of the Seals, Eric Dupond-Moretti, examined at first reading by the senators, brings several modifications to the criminal procedure.\
\
The measure voted on Wednesday has two purposes. On the one hand, real-time geolocation for certain offences. On the other hand, the activation of microphones and cameras to capture sound and images, which would be reserved for cases of terrorism, delinquency and organized crime.

"délinquance" (delinquency) seems a bit vague.

"LG's smartphone-making days may be over, but LG Innotek -- a major supplier of mobile camera modules -- is alive and well. It's introducing a new telephoto zoom camera module at CES 2023, offering true, continuous optical zoom."

"While most other long smartphone cameras use image-quality-degrading digital zoom to reach beyond their native focal length, LG's design uses moving lenses -- much like a traditional DSLR camera lens -- which preserves image detail. This camera module also uses a folded-optic design, also referred to as a periscope lens, keeping the overall size down. The result is a lens that covers a 4-9x range, with true optical zoom in between."

By "folded-optic design", they're referring to a system for using prisms so light, instead of going through lenses that are stacked parallel to the phone surface, the prism will redirect the light from going perpendicular to the phone surface to going parallel to the phone surface inside the phone, enabling lenses to be stacked perpendicular to the phone surface inside the phone. One prism redirects light as it enters the phone and a second redirects it before it reaches the sensor. If you're having trouble visualizing this, get the PDF document linked below (Apple patent).

LG Innotek is ready to put true optical zoom lenses in the next wave of flagship phones / The camera component supplier has unveiled a telephoto module with real moving optics to cover a 4-9x range — no digital zoom required

Newly Developed Camera Can Take In-Focus Photos Without a Lens | PetaPixel

Due to physical limitations, cameras can only become so small before they simply cannot shrink anymore. But a new lensless camera design could change that.
Researchers have also been steadily moving towards a computational approach rather than on that relies on optics being a set distance from the image sensor in order to focus light upon it.

And you could end up with a camera so small you can't see it.

Nikon Doesn't Want Cameras to Be its Core Business Anymore

Nikon isn't giving up on cameras, it just wants to be less reliant on them for financial stability.

Here are a bunch of photos from my trailcam.
I like to leave food scraps out in front of the camera because animals love it.
The crows really liked to just play with the egg shells. That family of crows has come back multiple times. I love those guys.
A fisher showed up. That's new to me.
A gray fox showed up, too. I've seen him hunting in the fields around here during autumn,
The trailcam took a lot of videos too, but I don't have anywhere to post those that isn't youtube and youtube is evil. A few of the smaller videos I did temporarily post here: http://www.operatorchan.org/t/res/113833.html

#App to detect hidden mini-cameras

“During the scan process, the ToF sensor emits laser pulses and receives the reflected light off of the object – such as the water bottle – and its surroundings. Specifically, the hidden camera embedded in the object reflects the incoming laser pulses at a higher intensity than its surroundings due to an effect called lens-sensor retro-reflection,” they explained.

“This occurs when almost all light energy impacting an object is reflected directly back to the source. These unexpectedly high-intensity reflections from hidden cameras cause certain regions of the ToF sensor to be “saturated” and appear as black pixels. LAPD processes these saturated areas to automatically identify the hidden camera and its location and displays it on the user’s smartphone screen.”
