The license of the project is for non-commercial research use only. Are they using it to build their cam for commercial?

You're right, it's quite plan really:

> PERMITTED USES: The Software may be used for your own noncommercial internal research purposes. You understand and agree that Licensor is not obligated to implement any suggestions and/or feedback you might provide regarding the Software, but to the extent Licensor does so, you are not entitled to any compensation related thereto.

from https://github.com/CMU-Perceptual-Computing-Lab/openpose/blo.... According to the article, that's powering the pose estimation here.

It's not for sale _yet_, so they may be in the clear for all the demo-ing they've been doing. Would CMU even be open providing a paid, commercial license? Does anyone know how CMU usually handles situations like this?
