As you might expect from a company based in Europe, which is becoming increasingly privacy-forward, Telraam has designed the device to be as private as possible. The low-resolution video images are processed on the device itself, then discarded, and the company says only the anonymized data table is transmitted off-device.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe camera is deliberately low resolution. The quality is sufficient for the AI chip to process in order to recognize the moving objects and categorize them as a car, bike or pedestrian, for example, but not enough detail to be able to see a face or read a license plate. There is no chance to identify individuals or vehicles,\u201d says Vanherle. \u201cThis means that Telraam S2 devices can provide useful traffic counts, but not collect any private information on the street users who pass by.\u201d<\/p>\n
