About Dave Selinger
I'm a technologist at heart and have been fortunate to be the founder of a number of successful start-ups, including Redfin and RichRelevance (and some unsuccessful ones too!). On the NGO side, I have gotten to serve on the board/advisory board of a number of non-profits including MyTwoFrontTeeth (now a part of Family Giving Tree), The Darfur Stoves Project (now Potential Energy) and most recently Silicon Climate.
My favorite technology right now is deep learning, specifically as applied to image and video object detection/recognition. This technology is undergoing a disruptive improvement and will change numerous industries. That's why I started Deep Sentinel--which puts deep learning to the practical use of protecting families in their homes. I am a fan of Tesorflow, Keras and am even teaching Stanford's CS231n course out in my hometown of Pleasanton :)
I'm also deeply engaged in my most challenging role so far--being a dad--while remaining connected to the community through advisory roles, board roles and a few investments.
About Deep Sentinel
Deep Sentinel is the only security system that delivers the experience of a personal guard at every customer's property. Deep Sentinel's 24/7 guards review and respond to alerts from cameras positioned around the perimeter of customer's properties. This ensures that any suspicious activity is identified within seconds and crime can be stopped before a potential burglar even gets a chance to enter.
The product uses deep learning with wireless security cameras to enable live guards to intervene within seconds of a perimeter breach and before the criminal enters the property -- at this price point, everyone can now access the protection of private security guards.
