RE: Thermal Imaging, Thermal Cameras, The Movie Predator and Now in Your Own Pocket
We have a case of steempathy here :P I wanted to write an article on how thermal cameras on smartphones are going to be a privacy nightmare.
Hahaha, but based on my personal experience they are not really going to be a privacy nightmare at least based on what is currently being offered as afordable solutions... there are some stories that exaggerate the issue a bit, though they can still be misused just like many other technologies.
I already have seen cases where it can even be used for criminal purposes, like detecting presence and movement within a house, etc. And that's with the first iterations of the ultra-portable tech. I can only imagine what'll happen next.
As I said - every technology can be abused or misused in the wrong hands :)
