Facial-recognition technology is fodder for a new breed of summer camp horror movies
franchise, the American summer camp tradition has long captured our cultural imagination as a place where terrifying things are bound to happen. Now, the advent of facial-recognition technology has added a dystopian sci-fi horror element to real-life summer camps by allowing unsuspecting children’s parents to easily spy on them in order to demand from afar that they more demonstrably enjoy themselves.
New facial-recognition tools can capture up to 1,000 images of campers a day, sending parents instant notifications when their children are kayaking, hiking, making new friends. Hopefully, parents are not being sent images of minors feeling each other up in the woods, but I am willing to bet that has happened at least once, as getting felt up in the woods is every bit as much a part of summer camp as learning dozens of Bible verses by heart .
“‘It’s all about building this one-way window into the camper’s experience: The parent gets to see in, but the camper’s not distracted from what’s going on,’” said Bunk1 president Rob Burns, a former camp counselor himself. “‘These are parents who are involved in everything their kid does, and that doesn’t go away when the kid is at camp.’”“How can our kids ever learn to be autonomous when we’re always tracking and monitoring them?” said Katie Hurley, a child and adolescent psychotherapist.
