Posted: Jan 29, 2013 The IEEE International Symposium on Technology and Society (ISTAS) is an annual international forum sponsored by the IEEE Society on the Social Implications of Technology (SSIT) to be held in Toronto, Canada, 27-29 June 2013. ?ISTAS13 is the annual symposium of the IEEE Society on the Social Implications of Technology (SSIT) which dates back to 1989. ISTAS'13?presenters and panellists will address the implications of living in smartworlds - smart grids, smart infrastructure, smart homes, smart cars,?smart fridges?smart people.?ISTAS'13?will bring together participants sharing research, projects, and ideas about people living in smart environments. ?The environment around us is becoming "smarter". Soon there will be a camera in nearly every streetlight to do better occupancy sensing and ultimately a camera in every light fixture. Many appliances and everyday products such as automatic flush toilets, faucets, and sensor-operated showers are starting to use more sophisticated camera-based computer-vision technologies.

What do we make of the growing numbers of businesses like department stores and restaurants that prohibit cameras, yet display QR codes that require cameras to read and understand? This event will facilitate the Veillances to come together in acknowledging the wearer as a camera but also the supporting infrastructure that will enable intelligent 4G applications.
