What's even funnier, "We believe that the camera might have difficulty 'seeing' contrast in conditions where there is insufficient foreground lighting."

I think what they're saying here is that it's hard to see black people in the dark ...?

LMFAO!!

Now that's a bad glitch, what HP doesn't have Blacks or Latinos that work for them that could have tested this out before it left the factory. Way to go HP next time use a bigger group of people of different skin complexions to test out your cameras.

They probably didn't check the "follow black people" checkbox in the options which is off by default.

At first I thought this was security software... This could have been an issue!

I guess it just hadn't occured them them that they would need to run tests with different pallets.
