AI 'Sensors boss' system has the ability to help you show hard work in front of your superior

This is a great application for lazy office workers.

Artificial intelligence has been used to manage the global economic market, predict heart disease and help cars locate the street automatically. However, not all AI applications are "serious" . A Brown University student recently developed a system of placing ridiculous names with the aim of helping future parents not have to worry about their children being "hit" . And last year, the first AI "beauty pageant" was born.

The machine selects the faces it thinks are "bright".

And, recently there is another application of AI that will be praised by lazy employees around the world - a facial recognition software that integrates deep learning technology that can hide what you are doing. on the screen whenever "boss" you visit.

"I feel very shy when" boss "suddenly appears behind me , " Hiroki Nakayama, the brain who invented the software, shared in one of his articles. "Of course, I can switch to the desktop quickly, but such behaviors are often suspicious, and sometimes we don't know when they" slip "behind us. To avoid suspicion, I created a system that automatically identifies his presence and automatically "hides" my screen ".

The system does not have much time to "buy time" but must act now .

To train this system, Nakayama helped him get acquainted with the boss's face by showing him a series of images. Then, he attached a webcam to his boss' desk and about 12 meters away. He can go all the way in just 5 seconds, Nakayama said, so the system doesn't have much time to "buy time" but must act now.

Nakayama described his system - which he named "Boss Sensor" - in a detailed post on his personal page, from the webcam he used and the software he created to record and process images. of the boss. Nakayama uses OpenCV - a leading open source library for computer vision, to identify faces and other source code libraries called Keras to build a convolution neural network on its own. can identify the face of his boss.

The system can identify your boss's face.

Once CNN sees his face, a picture filled with code - Nakayama is a programmer who will appear on the screen, making the boss think he is a hard worker, while he is not do anything.

Nakayama also shared its source code on the GitHub site so that other "lazy guys" can adapt themselves to their work.
