Recently, the Lege lifting table was exposed to have hidden cameras, which attracted widespread attention from the public.
Some netizens complained on Black Cat on platform that the Lege A9 smart lift I purchased had problems such as quality and hidden cameras, and said that it may cause privacy leakage. "The product does not clearly indicate that there is a camera on the promotional page, instruction manual, etc., and the seller also admits that the camera is idle."
Subsequently, Lege Co., Ltd. responded that the built-in camera of the product is idle and has removed the A9 lift platform involved "out of caution."
"This camera is used for the contactless heart rate detection function developed by the company, with the purpose of providing users with health value-added services. However, because the software of this function is technically difficult, there are some compatibility issues during the local use process. The function is currently being further developed and improved. The function has been turned off, so in fact, this camera is idle and there is no problem of stealing user privacy at all."
Monitoring heart rate through the camera is not a new feature. In November last year, the Google Pixel6 updated its function to detect the user's heart rate through the rear camera of the mobile phone and monitor the user's breathing frequency. In 2020, Xiaomi MIUI officially announced that the MIUI 12 system has added a heart rate detection function, so that the heart rate can be measured through the camera without additional hardware.
However, judging from the current public opinion, it seems that the number of users who hope to perform heart rate detection through lifting table still accounts for a small number.
