New Ad Technology Tracks Consumer Movement
mingrassia writes "Over at CNN: New technology tracks consumer movement, flashes messages and calls out to passersby. Meet the Human Locator. It's a new technology developed by Canadian ad agency Freeset Interactive that purports to detect when humans are near, track their movement, and then broadcast messages directed at them on a nearby screen. Conspiracy theorists can relax, however. The Human Locator can't yet identify, say, obese pedestrians and then bombard them with images of a cheeseburger and fries."

Don't waste your vote! Vote for whoever you want, unless you live in a swing state it won't matter anyways
Did it just detect who was reading the article and respond with this string of text and /. submission?
..and we wonder why we our depressed? over stressed? You'll mark this troll or offtopic because it challenges you to face reality and/or think about something other than what you're going to shove in your face or flash before your eyes next.
relax.. relax.. relax.. and the darkness surrounds us as the mad cows hog the freeways stuffing their faces with grease and convincing their sad souls to stay attached to their fat bodies by pumping themselves full of super duper sized coffee in the drive through.
They seal up the earth in concrete so they can drive polluting mobiles of death (designed to look pretty to mask the harm these "inventions" cause yet any disease that killed as many people and animals as cars do per year would likely be cured by now)
Second hand smoke! they cry, passing laws against tobacco which will lead to a complete ban in the future.. while the mad cows spew out the poison fumes from their gas guzzling coffins on wheels.
Advertisements bombard our eyes and ears in various forums all over the place...
