Surveillance Technology-Yuki Takeyama

    Our daily lives are being watched unknowingly. In the city, you can find some surveillance technology. First, CCTV camera helps crime prevention. I think this camera protects our life. If you met pickpocket in the station, the cops can check the camera to be able to catch the pick pocket. Second, facial recognition technology. In my opinion, it is little bit scare but it can be useful. In Japan, recently, unmanned convenience store has been started. Unmanned convenience store use facial recognition technology to automatically make payments using a pre-registered payment method. I think it is very useful and good for understaffed job. In conclusion, we're being watched by cameras more than we think, and information is connected to a lot of things.

    I agree that stores using facial recognition technology are very convenient. It isn't only convenient, but also it solves a lack of employee. Sometimes we feel scared to these technology, but they are too useful to avoid.

    I think it is a good example to explain the benefit by using that technology. This example tells us the possibilities of using the surveillance technology anywhere.

I like to go fishing in Port Chalmers on weekends with my friends. I think fishing helps me to release stress, exercise my willpower, and we will have fish to eat.

   Today's market was fun because there were a lot of shops. I saw accessory shops and clothes shops and tried a game, too.  It was the most interesting that many of the accessories were made by people. Both of the students and the sellers seemed to enjoy the market.  I felt this market was one of the interesting cultures for the students and the local people in New Zealand.

Surveillance Technology- Hiromi Yoshioka

   I think the surveillance technology will help keep us safe, because if we use surveillance technology, we can notice crimes easily. The surveillance technology will help us to prevent or solve crime. Also, the picture quality of security cameras is really good these days, so the police can identify criminals more easily and it will help move investigation forward smoothly. Also, not only for prevention or investigation of crime, but for children's safety, the surveillance technology is useful. It means that if a child gets lost, parents or other adults can search for him or her by using the surveillance technology. That technology must help improve safety for children.   However, the surveillance technology can sometimes invade our privacy if it is used wrongly. The abuse of the surveillance technology is dangerous for us, because the abuse of that technology measns that someone can know what we do or recognize our personal information without noticing us. So, we must understand
