Other than the 360 degree cameras and the location data. Nope. Can't identify anyone using that information.
- richbell 2y agoThis reminds me of an anecdote from someone who worked for a large hotel(?) chain. I can't remember where I read it. Anyway, they wrote a program that analyzed employee activity from sources including badge readers and automatically shut off lights when no one was around. Management loved it — because it, inadvertently, allowed them to surveil employees.
- stemlord 2y agoThis is the most hilarious part: >The aim is to create a better work environment for humans — one that isn't too hot, humid or dim. Saad said that means more comfortable and productive employees. Hello, lighting and climate control are already solved problems? But regardless, deploying roombas riddled with cameras out into the workplace is undoubtedly a step toward making employees feel more "comfortable".
