In Brief
The camera you are adding can automatically take a snapshot of a motion event that can be used for training. When motion detection is highly confident that there is important motion occurring, your Intelligence Hub will submit 10 seconds of video of this event.
Providing a contribution to the camera training fleet requires no effort and helps scOS to make your system, and other customer systems, more accurate at picking up relevant motion (with MotionX) - the entry point on detecting crime or knowing how and when to personalise your home.
If ObjecTron is selected, your samples can be used to improve object detection of vehicles and people.
The scOS internal team will classify or annotate this data, so you may only like to do this for exterior cameras.
Contributions will be recorded for a potential competition in the furture, however, this is down to our discretion on when we do so.
In Detail
Where Will This Be Used?
If "Motion Only" is selected, imagery will help train MotionX - our innovative motion detection system. Classification is performed by the scOS internal team - placing frames in either noMotion or importantMotion.
If "ObjecTron Only" is selected, the images will only be used for annotating objects (people, cars, packages etc) that are useful for scOS Intelligence for understanding the context of events. These annotations are done manually by the scOS internal team.
If both are selected, then both contributions will be made available.
Where Is This Data Stored and For How Long?
All contributions are securely stored on Amazon Web Services (AWS) in the Ireland region (along with our other processes). Access to this data is strictly controlled and limited to authorized personnel. The data is housed in encrypted storage mediums to ensure maximum security and compliance with relevant data protection regulations.
You own your data and only allow us to permit use of it. Through the Data Integrity Zone, in CaelusVIew (in development), you will be able to view all of this data on scOS. There you will be able to selectively delete all or some of your contributions. Otherwise, as default to choosing to contribute, data is retained for as long as it remains relevant to improving and evolving our motion detection and ObjecTron capabilities, depending which is chosen. This period may vary as technological and operational needs develop. On a yearly rolling period, we will reach out to you to ask if you are still happy contributing.
The scOS community is grateful for your contributions for building a better network that proactively combats crime!
