Intel developing box that watches you watch TV

Feb 14 2013, 1:09am CST | by

Washington, Feb 14 (IANS/RIA Novosti) The world's biggest chip-maker Intel has said it is developing a set-top TV entertainment box that can provide personalised programming using a camera that can watch users watch TV.

Washington, Feb 14 (IANS/RIA Novosti) The world's biggest chip-maker Intel has said it is developing a set-top TV entertainment box that can provide personalised programming using a camera that can watch users watch TV.

This has sparked a conversation among technology enthusiasts about the fine line between innovation and privacy.

"Today, television does not really know anything about you, and it is the same television service for everyone in the household," said Erik Huggers, vice president of Intel Media at conference in California.

The front facing camera on Intel's yet-to-be-named set-top box will come equipped with facial-recognition software that will allow users to receive TV show recommendations based on individual viewing patterns and history, the company said.

"In order to actually recognise who is there and to offer you your personal experience, rather than having to log in or put your fingerprint or do a retina scan... to make it completely seamless you need a camera," Huggers said.

With the chip industry struggling, the consumer electronics market is where the money is, Nathan Brookwood, principal analyst with Insight 64, a semiconductor consulting firm, told the website Tech Hive.

The release of the device, slated for later this year, means Intel will join the already crowded set-top box market that includes companies like Roku, Apple, and Boxee which offer different variations of home entertainment devices that can stream movies, shows, and let users surf the internet.

The box will also offer live and on-demand TV programming and will come equipped with a programming interface that will allow users to find shows more easily than with current cable and satellite options, the company said.

Intel's new technology will be of special interest to advertisers, who tech writers said, will have the ability to target ads using the age and gender of the individual watching TV.

"The on-demand project will nonetheless rely on the viewer-tracker potential, helping advertisers craft more appropriate content and recommending more relevant shows depending on who's watching what," electronics blog SlashGear reported.

It said Intel is aware of the "uphill challenge" the company will face attempting to market such a device to the general public.

Asked if it was "getting into a little bit of creepiness", Huggers said he wanted to remind potential consumers that the camera does come equipped with a shutter that can be closed at any time for the camera-shy.

"We're used to being watched while we're web surfing," said Bill Ray, writer with the global online tech publication The Register.

What remains to be seen, experts said, is if the comfort of revealing private information that has become second nature on the web will be commonplace for users watching TV in their homes.
