It doesn't work if you don't pre-print this out.

You'd be surprised how much can be done at the edge with current cameras. I'm not sure exactly how these particular ones are set up, but the other major players in the space (Axis,Bosch,Panasonic) all have pretty surprising levels of local compute dedicated to "AI", and leveraging external VMS platforms can exponentially increase capabilities. It's pretty idiot proof once set up, as it's aimed at desk jockies that monitor and report with minimal systems training.
Again, not this specific system but this stuff is far from sci-fi anymore.
Spray paint. Krylon makes "stained glass" paints. Something dark and thick like violet would be pretty effective.
I work in security engineering, including massive video systems. With any commercial unit made in the last 5 years and any software past entry level consumer grade this is a non-issue. Especially if someone is using descriptive visual search when pulling up video vs just scanning through every motion event.
I wouldn't even be mad honestly. I learned a ton of my early computer skills trying to get stuff running where I shouldn't or get into things I had no business messing with. That's how kids learn!
Follow Sony's play and call it an "OtherOS" mode. You don't even have to support it once you're already shipping under the new classification!
He does ham radio and we just built him a 20m high tower for it with the Starlink dish mounted at the top to look over any possible trees etc. it's not obstructions 🤷♂️
A coworker lives out I the middle of nowhere but has Starlink to keep him connected and working fully remote. Literally once a meeting he drops mid-sentence and when his frozen face comes back to life he's yelling "GOD DAMNIT ELON". Never fails to get a chuckle.
Maybe a good chunk of my opinion on it is due to having grown up with that era of crawlers. Like I said, maybe I'm an odd duck on this one but I still play Daggerfall occasionally to this day. 🤷♂️
Maybe not for everyone, but I feel like Daggerfall still holds up to scratch the crawler itch. Especially with Daggerfall Unity out there.
What would the wall being precut have to do with the car deciding to drive through it?
I love these games, but the fan service scenes sprinkled through like that are cringey as all hell. At least I never knew about this one, I bathed my Snake regularly.
