Downscaling video to be noisy low-resolution and effectively unprocessed is a trivial computation task. No need to have low-resolution cameras to get that - if you really want that.
- RC_ITR 4y agoAre you implying that it’s easy for computers to take the average color of 25 pixels and make one 5x5 pixel that color? Then drop a random set of frames/pixels? No, apple, the company with the worst voice assistant (who does most of the work on-device for privacy reasons), must want to collect our (low motion single vantage point image) data for some nefarious reason.
- eurasiantiger 4y agoLast I checked, image resizing was anything but trivial. I get your point, but if you were optimizing for low energy consumption, you’d want to skip that downscaling because dropping every nth pixel actually removes data; meanwhile convolution operations are slow and cannot be done in-place i.e. without making it obvious what is happening.
