Shuttercam public research
At the entrance of the AMS Institute on the Marineterrein, the Responsible Sensing Lab is experimenting with the Shuttercam. This privacy-friendly camera is designed for crowd monitoring during events or at peak times, such as on very sunny days at the Marineterrein.
The Shuttercam collects only essential data, activating only during busy periods. The visible shutter indicates if the camera is on or off. Also passersby can opt out using the black button, similar to a laptop camera shutter.

The Shuttercam is initated by the Responsible Sensing Lab: a collaboration between the City of Amsterdam and AMS Institute. Responsible Sensing Lab explores how to integrate social values in the design of sensing systems in public space. For more info check our other projects: Projects | Responsible Sensing Lab

We zijn een nieuwe pilot met twee Shuttercams gestart in de omgeving van Johan Cruijff ArenA.
Final Report Pilot Shuttercams ArenA
The results of the Shuttercams pilot are in. To monitor crowdedness in public space near the Johan Cruijff football stadium while respecting social values like privacy, we installed two Shuttercams. How did professionals, activists and passersby respond to this intervention?
Shuttercam
The Shuttercam project investigates the effect of shutters, so-called shields placed over cameras. What if, as a passerby, you could clearly see if and when a camera was on or off?
