Microsoft is preparing to release its new invention soon. The patented technology will be used to record events occurring in the lives of users, but theoretically it can also be used to spy on people.
As a rule, the process of video recording requires a number of special actions from a person: it is necessary to select a shooting angle and press the desired button. The new Life Streaming technology does not require any additional efforts from its owner. A device for recording life will constantly record events occurring with the user in the form of audio and video content. Information about life experiences can be shared in real time - so loved ones can experience exciting moments together with the owner of Life Streaming. Thanks to the gadget, it will be possible to blog in the format of "live feeds". In addition, all information is stored in the memory of the gadget, and the user can easily view the recordings made several years ago, or transfer them to a similar Life Streaming device to another user.
According to Microsoft's description, the device for recording life will include a processor, memory, digital video camera, which will record what is happening, a microphone and a network interface.
At first glance, Life Streaming technology is useful and quite safe, but many believe that in the future it will become an excellent tool for total surveillance of the actions of people and their environment. According to the description of the device, user data will also be transmitted to servers, which will make the system extremely convenient for monitoring users.
Life Streaming isn't the only technology suspected of spying on people. Google is developing "smart glasses", which will also record every step of their owner. Apple also plans to create a similar device. It is not yet known when Life Streaming will go on sale, but the technology has already managed to acquire a considerable number of opponents.
