Project Goals and Description:

This project aims at designing a new programmable camera that can support on device machine learning algorithms and user privacy preserving simultaneously. The best place to protect data privacy is where the data is generated. In particular, we will this open source smart camera to further benchmark the feasibility and performance of other existing IoT devices to host IoT services in smart homes.
