U.S. Spy Agency Dreams of Surveillance Underwear It’s Calling “SMART ePANTS”

https://bit.ly/44zOK1B - 👖 The U.S. intelligence community is exploring the next frontier in wearable tech: ePANTS. The Office of the Director of National Intelligence has invested $22 million to develop clothing that can record audio, video, and geolocation data. #WearableTech #ePANTS 🔍 Spearheaded by the Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity (IARPA), the SMART ePANTS program is set to produce garments like shirts, pants, and even underwear that are both smart and washable. The aim is to enhance surveillance and data collection capabilities. #IARPA #SmartClothing 🤖 IARPA, known for its high-risk, high-reward projects, has awarded contracts for the ePANTS program to entities including defense contractors Nautilus Defense and Leidos, as well as academic institutions like MIT. #DefenseTech #Innovation 🌐 The potential applications of ePANTS extend to aiding personnel in high-stress environments, such as crime scenes or arms control inspections, by providing hands-free data collection. #PublicSafety #TechForGood 🎬 This isn't the first time the national security community has ventured into high-tech wearables. Past projects, like the TALOS "supersuit," were inspired by sci-fi movies but ended without tangible results. #TALOS #SciFiInspired 🔮 The rise of smart wearables like ePANTS could lead to new forms of biometric surveillance. While consumer wearables can monitor heartbeats, advancements might enable more invasive biometric data collection. #BiometricSurveillance #PrivacyConcerns 🛍️ Beyond national security, the private sector, including companies like Meta (Facebook's parent), is showing interest in smart clothing, indicating a potential broader market for such innovations. #SmartClothingTrend #Meta 👀 If successful, SMART ePANTS could redefine surveillance, potentially offering unparalleled insights into individuals.

עבודת אנליסט המודיעין תהיה מעכשיו קלה יותר

רבים מהחיישנים המוטסים והחיישנים בחלל מסוגלים לספק תמונות לצורך מודיעין גאוגרפי (GEOINT). אבל בעוד שיהקף הנתונים ממשיך לעלות, האנליסטים מתקשים להתמודד עם הכמות, המגוון והמהירות של נתונים מבוססי-חלל. פרויקט מודיעיני חדש ידגים כיצד מודיעין גאוגרפי שנאסף באמצעות התכת נתונים טוב יותר מהסכום הפשוט של מו

Wanted: Larger Datasets for Computer Vision Training

Computer vision is a type of artificial intelligence that allows computers to interpret images and videos. Many law enforcement and public safety organizations already use the tech to investigate crimes, monitor critical infrastructure and secure major events that could be a target for terrorists.
