In the video, men with bright skin and dark men, 2 people try to get soap with a soap dispenser. When a man with bright skin turns his hands, it comes out vigorously, but dispensers did not respond no matter how much hands are moved by a deep skinny man.</p> <p>When a dark skinny mother holds a white paper towel and holds up, you can see that it reacts. Perhaps the soap dispenser is equipped with an optical sensor and reacts when you hold your hand, but cheap sensors do not seem to be able to recognize dark skin. CNET on the technology/business information media site Developing <a href="https://www.cnet.com/news/how-accurate-are-wristband-heart-rate-monitors/">Fitness Tracker</a> Mr. Bharat Vasan of Basis Science has asked why the sensor can not be recognized by the skin color and answered as follows.</p> <p>"Although light penetrates through several layers, the higher the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fitzpatrick_scale">Fitzpatrick Scale</a>, the harder it is for light to bounce back, so if the person with bright skin is in a bright place the light will be pure white The problem of skin color is the part that technology must supplement. "</p> <p>The soap dispenser is still a light example, but there have been examples in the past that wearable fitness trackers and heart rate monitors do not respond when dark skin people.</p> <p>Of course, such wearables do not serious health care, but if people with dark skin who have heart disease etc. do not respond to wearables attached to observe the condition of the heart, It makes no sense at all. </p> <p>Technology has spread all over the world to make life more convenient, while it has to deal with various colors in the world.</p> <hr> <center><a href="https://steemit.com/@mytechcrunch" rel="nofollow noopener"><img src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-i5glPS8fq84/WHipuo9dX6I/AAAAAAAAF4I/5xm4_mlQwSMyqqzez-k61yNtICA18WH_gCLcB/s1600/mytechcrunch-profile.png"></a></center> </html>
