That’s not very sustainable, the main thing is to be fancy and smart first.
To be honest, the camera solution hasn’t really been thought through either…

    Sounds like the perfect challenge for reverse engineers. Or a chance for Liebherr to at least release the source code of the camera firmware so that the hardware can live on as part of an open source project.

    Have you tried turning it off and on again?

    user109 not only, there’s more here: https://www.digitec.ch/de/page/hype-firma-humane-macht-dicht-hp-kauft-die-reste-36827

    I can still remember when it was so hyped on the net. Now the patents are going to HP, nothing will be done with it, although FOSS projects could do a lot. Spotify once had a thing like this (but I don’t think it was so much with AI)…
