Cameras are there to lower insurance premiums. That's why for years and years every security camera video looked like it was filmed on a potato because there was no incentive to upgrade. The rise of phone cameras has caused the price of 4k cameras to plummet though so they are getting better.
Computer-vision has been a thing for years, though it's now bundled under the moniker "AI". I know that the self-checkout cameras at the store where I go use AI to "watch" customers. I would assume most of them do, now. Heck, the cheap camera that I bought to point out my front window for fun pretty reliably detects animals, vehicles, and people.
