Hansaplatz, near Hamburg Central Station, is the AI surveillance laboratory of the city. The Hamburg Police is experimenting with behavior recognition. Using a Fraunhofer Institute stick figure AI, passers-by were "digitally skinned" and analyzed. During this surveillance walk, we take a closer look at this project and demand the city stop this surveillance.
