Product Overview
KarmaSense in action
A visible mechanical privacy module designed for CCTV cameras in sensitive environments.
The Problem
CCTV vs Privacy
Many organizations need security cameras to protect their spaces — but they must also respect privacy regulations and the rights of the people inside.
Traditional CCTV systems record everyone who enters the frame. This creates serious legal and ethical concerns, especially in privacy-sensitive environments such as schools, offices, and public institutions.
Until now, there has been no simple and visible way to guarantee that a camera is not recording a person.
The Solution
How KarmaSense Works
Empty space
Camera monitors the area normally.
Person detected
PIR sensor detects human presence.
Shutter closes
Mechanical shutter physically covers the lens.
Privacy mode active
The camera cannot record people while the shutter is closed.
Benefits
Why KarmaSense
Core Idea
Monitor changes, not people
KarmaSense allows cameras to record the state of a space while protecting human privacy.
Organizations can compare:
- — the condition of a room before and after use
- — changes in equipment or environment
- — security incidents that occurred in an empty space
without recording individuals.
Applications
Where It Can Be Used
Schools
Monitor classrooms when empty while protecting student privacy.
Offices
Provide security monitoring without constant employee surveillance.
Public buildings
Enable responsible surveillance in government and public spaces.
Libraries
Observe room conditions without recording visitors.
Sensitive spaces
Deploy cameras where traditional CCTV would raise privacy concerns.
