This is not the first attempt at this. Anti-camera makeup has been a thing for a while. Painting a square on your nose or a flesh-colored eyepatch is often enough to fool facial rec systems looking to measure distances between features. Standing on a skateboard or moonwalking can sometimes trick a system into calling you a non-person. Putting a box over your head darlek-style works too.
None of these defeat old fashioned motion detection + followup by human eyes. Security guards arent going away anytime soon.
Of course security guards aren't going anywhere anytime soon. Rather the new technology will make finding and acting on incidents quicker and more efficient.
I can't see it being too difficult to identify tactics being used and mark them as suspicious.

I'm sure you're right. But remember what every security measure is trying to achieve -- it's not actually making you immune to attack (that's impossible), but rather to increase the cost of the attack.
This sort of thing would accomplish that by requiring human involvement.
