They may work to specification indoors; however, foroutdoor use, their abilities to distinguish people from the environmentquickly diminishes. This is a fundamental problem this paper aimed tosolve. In other research, it is difficult to achieve complete accuracy foroutdoor detections for a reasonable price. A proposed solution by Akter,Sima, Ullah, and Hossain [2] called for a Raspberry Pi and PIR sensor toaid in an automated doorbell. While useful for some locations, the systemdid not appear to be easily expandable, and PIR sensors were not ascapable in daylight [3]. Another solution for security camera reliability is to run artificialintelligence (AI) on a video stream in real

process that are often invisible but critical to development. 2 All too often in education, we are focused only on final products: the final exam, the grade, the perfect research paper, mastery of a subject. But how do we get students from here to there? What are the intermediate stages that help students develop the skills and habits of master learners in our disciplines?” 1 To me, “invisible learning” represents the development of the thought processes behindthe solution to a problem. What am I thinking as I first look at a problem? What do I do first andwhy? I imagine a single student sharing a piece of paper with me as I sketch and talk.
