Is this why 360 camera doesn't have a sentry mode?

Ford and ADT announce Canopy to create Ring-like security for your car

I like the idea. I'm not at all interested in paying some inflated monthly fee to ADT to get the feature.

The CNET article, IIRC, mentioned additional hardware being required for onboard image processing and machine vision. The Bronco's SYNC 4 system runs QNX, an embedded system OS written by Blackberry, and only packs 256MB of ram and some lightweight processor.

Future versions are supposed to run Android, and would need at least a smartphone SoC to do so. I'd bet the hardware they choose for that would be capable of running some decent machine vision/ML to support something like Canopy.

so they can charge you extra to add the feature later

From a tech perspective this is actually quite interesting to me.. I would figure they can remote-in via a high end smart phone though.

For example; you can play Playstation 4 games on your phone from anywhere so long as the Ps4 is connected to wifi (don't quote me). The Ps4 acts as the engine and the phone simply becomes a television. I would imagine something similar is possible for this application
