Plumerai Launches Smart Home Security Cameras with On-Device AI!

A group of Harvard undergraduates gained notoriety on Wednesday when they integrated face recognition technology into a pair of Ray-Ban Meta glasses. The DIY effort is the most recent development to fuel privacy worries about the pervasive technology. The issue has gotten more pressing as cameras become more commonplace in society.

In this discussion, connectivity plays a significant part as well. Requirements for remote servers bring additional security and privacy risks. When police enforcement and Ring's parent company, Amazon, are involved, more problems occur.

Plumerai was founded in 2017, and its main selling point is its technology for improving on-device AI processing. The London-based company has created a technique that eliminates the need to send data to a distant server in order to complete activities like people detection and familiar face identification.

Tony Fadell is an early investor. The iPod creator cites issues he ran into as the co-founder of Nest in his decision to back the company.
