Background
Our technology tackles the problem of GDPR and publishing of video material. Imagine – reporters have a video and wish to show it on their news channel but they did not get consent from people in it. Imagine – you wish to post a video online (on social media) but you don’t want the social platform or web crawlers to be able to use it to profile you.
Description of invention
Our technology lets us keep people anonymous while still revealing certain relevant characteristics (selectively):
- Hair/skin colour and other physical attributes
- Facial expressions and emotions
- Gender, age
- Accessories
