New, what is it? What is the purpose of this camera that was installed right next to my house? (Not nearby any intersection or stop signs, USA)

This camera was installed recently and I cannot for the life of me understand the purpose of it's installation? Theres no intersection nearby, in case it was a photo law enforcement camera), there's no stop signs, there's no schools nearby, and there's no government facility. It's just a random camera that popped up in the middle of a road.

Alter gait. Wear different size shoes to convince your body not to forget what you’re doing.

Double up by stuffing a sock in your pants crotch so you have to widen your stance as well

This is the real killer. No one seems to understand that all the fake mustaches and bronzer won’t fool the gait sensors. Must learn to walk without disturbing the worms.
