Yangsky's cognitive vision solutions cover the spectrum from applications that allow end users to use webcams for visual tasks such as flame detection, bar code reading, home security, and allow enterprisers to use industrial video cameras for visual tasks such as traffic monitoring, fire alarm, and visual tracking.
"Practical" applications [NSFW]:
Blowjob Detection/Oral Sex Detection
Anus Detection
Cowgirl Sex Position Detection
Fog Penetration

The guy reads like an absolute crackpot, but he's apparently managed to operationalize his ideas, which is impressive. He doesn't show any examples of detecting an absence of porn in his filter, though, which might point to a problem with false positives.
