Restricted countries use social media to target data driven free speech which can get you imprisoned or killed. My rebuttal is to humanize data and decompartmentalize the mentality that data can only revoke your humanity. It also has capability to express a narrative. In this example each car represents a soul, this data aims to acknowledge the humanity found at an overpass. This is my attempt at using Data Vision as an assistive tool in expressing creativity.
This demo was conducted in Al Mursalat, Riyadh (24.75210° N, 46.69910° E) whilst scouting locations to test DATA VISION’S object detection capabilities for tracking moving objects. The video was shot on iPhone at 60fps then descaled to fit into the algorithms parameter requirements. This final edit had to be fast forwarded 8x as the initial rendering outputs the video at a painful 3fps. I will now investigate methods of using the GPU as main processor, in hopes of a smoother and faster final rendering.
