University project wants YOU to help spot suspicious behaviour on CCTV

Deny ID | 31.03.2007 13:44 | Education | Repression | Technology

Appearing around Nottingham University around the weekend, a leaflet offering 4 quid for 30 mins volunteering tells you to email Anthony Carse,  epyyamc@nottingham.ac.uk or phone mobile no. 07921 706 198 to take part.
"Absolutely anyone is suitable to undertake the experiment". "WHY NOT SEE IF YOU ARE UP TO THE CHALLENGE"



It's the next thing in CCTV! Not content with new cameras that tell you off when you drop litter, or poke fun at the authorities, the next generation of Big Brother technology is about looking for funny walks and inappropiate loitering, or perhaps you are looking too sad or too happy?
But how do we know if they work or not? Can it be done even better?

The CCTV experimenter tells us "We are researching the particular aspects of a persons' behaviour that are seen to be suspicious when viewed using continuous surveillence."

The potential for suspiciously random behaviour by those taking part in this experiments does not seem to be mentioned!

Flytipping seems invisible to our wonderful CCTV

31.03.2007 17:21


The all seeing eye.

Persistent flytipping on my estate doesn´t seem to be inhibited by the fact that CCTV covers the main turn off from the A road the lorries take.

I must get round to asking a copper about this- if I can access one who isn´t zooming past in his PT cruiser that is!

New CCTV in Carlton

01.04.2007 10:54

I've just noticed how the council are rapidly expanding the CCTV circuit around the city. New poles for high tech all rotating cameras have recently been installed around Carlton. (Carlton Hill/Standhill Rd and various locations along Carlton Rd)

maybe we should volunteer and 'report' suspicious behaviour at random. that should screw up the research nicely.

Sick of being spied on - and barked at ...

Today we hear that:
"Talking" CCTV cameras that tell off people dropping litter or committing anti-social behaviour are to be extended to 20 areas across England.

Guess which cities are included?
