iPRIVI-SENSE Project. (Privacy-Responsive Integrated computer Vision for Intelligent Safe sENsing and Situational Enhancement)
This IRC Laureate funded project will investigate novel combinations of multimodal imaging – near-Infrared (NIR), thermal-Infrared (LWIR) and neuro-morphic (event) camera technologies processed by AI networks, to infer actions or detect subtle thermal or biometric events related to a human subject. The combination of AI with multi-modal imaging of a scene/subject enables subtle understanding and sensing without creating images or video of a human subject that might accidently violate their data privacy. The core goal is to demonstrate the feasibility to process and analyse multi-modal data locally (in-device), thus avoiding the creation of large amounts of video/image data and avoiding the need to upload store and process such data in the cloud.
Two Research Assistant positions and a PostDoc opportunity are currently advertising.
