I doubt it would cost nearly that much. I could build something similar in a couple of days, and I'm not even a developer by trade. Just use something like pHa

Just use something like pHash (e.g. https://github.com/JohannesBuchner/imagehash https://github.com/JohannesBuchner/imagehash), screen cap the centre of the screen (say, a quarter of the screen in total) every minute, hash and then send the 8 byte hex string back to home base.
- alexpersian 10y agoOk. Now get the database of content to match it against and build a program that automatically determines what the user is engaged in.
- spangry 10y agoOk, I'll just go and buy a major media content publisher. Sony, perhaps...
- scient 10y agoAh, the "I'm no developer, but this is easy" person. Glad to have your valuable input here :)

- runholm 10y agoThe problem you are describing is one that many large companies spend huge resources on today, so guarantee you that it is not something you do in a couple of days. Even if you had the system up and running, you would still need to create a large database system managing 100 billion data points each day and integrate the stream of information with your customers APIs. $2m worth of developer time going into this project is very likely. Thinking you could do this in a couple of days is simply ignorant.
