Your analysis is likely correct; but at the same time, a system like this has never been more affordable, possible.

Also, imagine getting a video of your brand new car’s construction at the time of purchase.

So Ford is providing pictures for people who ordered Ford Broncos currently. And for a method of keeping customers interested in the vehicle they ordered I think it is a really good tactic.

I wonder how well some kind of bespoke batch-processing video codec would work on production line footage where the endless repeats of the same mechanical motions continue for hours and across days/weeks? Encode only the difference between cycles.
