Today, TV sets
provide a child lock option for the parents on their children.
I can't remember
my parents using one and neither any of my neighbours imposing such a
strict rule on their child as well. Why? Its because no one cares as
they think most programmes filter and censor the bad stuff
themselves.
Online sites also
provide an age filter option and it is as easy for my pet dog to
bypass it.
But as I grew up,
I begin to realise that there are certain things that children must
not watch at such a tender age. Also it is now naive to think that
children of today won't find a way to overcome this obstacle.
I thought of an
innovation and it might just work out for this kind of problem.
Let us suppose
there is some sort of retina scan device fitted inside the monitor of
the TV set and is continuously emitting invisible signals outside.
Through this scan, whatever the input information the device would
get from scanning the retina(s), based on that it will be able to
identify the age of a person and will only display the types of
program that particular age is set for viewing.
But what if
multiple people are viewing the TV? Simple. The device is so set so
as to give the first priority to the person with the minimum age.
Next comes the
online sites. Well it is still viewed in a monitor, right?
