Magical HTML5 moustache.

Introducing HTML5: Video and Audio
http://www.peachpit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=1765993&seqNum=5

magical HTML5 moustache.
This is a cool AR application.  One that put's
moustache's on people.  Yea I know some webcams come with software to do that.

But
HTML5 can do AR, meaning you can use your camera phone to point to a web site and run applications that to image processing tricks.

That ability to completely change in an out the AR engine from a URL changes everything.
Since HTML5 based software isn't locked in to legacy libraries and drivers and the massive web of version compatible issues that come with it.

I only hope the HTML5 people keep their act together.

So far the most important function for being able to capture video in HTML5 is:

navigator.getUserMedia

This only works in Opera by default.  In Chrome you need to run a command line argument --enable-media-stream to enable it.

I was surprise to see that the  NVIDIA 3D Vision system used HTML5 exclusively for playback of Youtube 3D videos.

FOX and YOUTUBE here is an oppertunity going to waste.

Wired is one of the top magazines and has some klout.

I came across an interesting article on Wired.com


http://www.wired.com/dangerroom/tag/voice-of-god-weapon/







Which linked to Youtube "Gob's greatest illusion - the yacht disappears"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=hyIoiTa066E


"This video contains content from FOX, who has blocked it on copyright grounds."

What a missed opportunity. If I were a share holder I'd be getting a little upset about this by now.

I mean Wired I am sure would be more then happy to license this clip as it would any still or clip from FOX I know there are middlemen that do just that for traditional Broadcast medium.

What this just a miss step on Wired part?
Is this because the author didn't know to use some obscure streaming service that does just this very thing? 

So in the end, Wired who I am sure would be a happy paying customer, get's an unprofessional result. 

Shut down by Fox through Youtube, the only thing not turning this FAIL/FAIL in to profitable WIN/WIN is a small amount of Code and an agreement by the lawyers and the suits.

Just imagine how it would also empower others who also wish to include a video that references modern popular culture.

Driven by Smartphones and Tablets, the Market for Mobile Processors Is Projected to Reach 1.9 Billion Units Annually by 2016, Says NPD In-Stat

Scottsdale, Ariz., March 28, 2012—The term "mobile processor" refers to a range of processors used in mobile CE devices, often referred to as applications processors and central processing units (CPUs). These highly flexible mobile processors are used in multifunction devices that combine computing, communications, entertainment, and/or productivity capabilities. Mobile devices include e-readers, handheld game consoles (HGCs), mobile PCs, portable media players (PMPs), smartphones, and tablets. New NPD In-Stat (www.in-stat.com) research, reports that the growth of mobile processors in 2011 exceeded 43% and is forecast to grow at a 22% CAGR through 2016.

"Although the total available market for mobile processors continues to grow, the emergence of industry leaders in the high-growth mobile device segment is becoming a key factor in the success of processor vendors," says Jim McGregor, Chief Technology Strategist. "Just having a captive smartphone and tablet market has propelled Apple into second place for the entire mobile processor market just behind industry leader Intel. In 2012, Apple will likely capture the top spot, in terms of unit shipments, driven by the success of its iPhone and iPad. Other companies that benefitted greatly from new product releases or dominance by their OEM customers included Nvidia, Texas Instruments, Qualcomm, and Samsung."

Key research findings include:

  • For all mobile devices, ARM is the dominant processor architecture with over 73% of all units shipped and is growing.
  • Intel's dominance continues in mobile PCs, while Apple, Qualcomm, and Samsung claim the top spots in other CE devices.
  • Smartphones and tablets represent the greatest opportunity for growth with a combined 75% growth in 2011 and 29.3% CAGR expected through 2016.
  • In-Stat anticipates consolidation in the mobile processor market beginning in the 2013/2014 timeframe.
  • The release of Windows 8 later this year will be a pivotal point in the competition between the ARM and x86 processor architectures.

New In-Stat research, Mobile Processor Architectures, Devices, and Market Shares, Q4'11 (#IN1204993SI), examines the vendors, markets, and issues surrounding the mobile processor market.

Technology Microsoft could be working on gaming helmet and eyewear

A recently surfaced Microsoft patent looks like they could be looking into reinvigorating the gaming space with displays built into eyewear and helmets.


Microsoft's system, a virtual image projector, could be built into helmets, goggles, and other types of eyewear. It would involve two different images, one projected in front of each eye, providing a stereoscopic 3D experience.
The projectors would be partially transparent, so you could play a game while still seeing a semblance of your natural environment. Alternately, a game could merge the real world with a virtual world beamed in front of your retinas.
There's one fundamental problem of having a display projected so close to your eye, though: The human eye can't focus on images less than an inch or two away. Microsoft's patent solves this problem by projecting the image as if it's viewed at arm's length. Projected scenes appear to be 21 inches in diagonal with a 16:9 aspect ratio.
Such " wearables" are commonly regarded as the next frontier of tech. Google has reportedly been working on a sunglasses-like heads-up display (HUD) unit that could go on sale before the end of the year. Apple has also dabbled in eye-worn displays, if past patents are any indicator. Other types of wearable technology could be built into clothing, or even be embedded in your flesh.
As for the helmet, the more awkward potential implementation of this projector technology, Microsoft envisions it could be used in aviation applications in addition to gaming.

A history of 3D cinema

1826  French inventor Nicéphore Niépce made the first permanent photograph from nature with a camera obscura


1838 Charles Wheatstone invented the stereogram. He found an explanation of binocular vision which led him to construct a stereoscope based on a combination of prisms and mirrors to allow a person to see 3D images from two 2D pictures.

1855 James Clerk Maxwell  developed color theory and the perception of color,

1861 The first color photograph made by the three-color method suggested by James Clerk Maxwell in 1855, taken by Thomas Sutton.

1861 Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. invented an improved form of stereoscope which had no mirrors and was inexpensive to produce. These stereoscopes were immensely popular for decades.

1888 Thomas Edison invents the Kinetoscope also known as a peep-hole viewer.

1894 William Friese-Greene files a patent application for a 3D viewing process using two screens side by side, united in the viewer's eye by a cumbersome stereoscope headset.

From Wikipedia:
"In the early 1890's he experimented with cameras to create stereoscopic moving images but met with limited success. Friese-Greene’s experiments in the field of motion pictures were at the expense of his other business interests and in 1891 he was declared bankrupt. To cover his debts he sold the rights to the 'chronophotographic' camera patent no. 10131 for £500. The renewal fee was never paid and the patent eventually lapsed."

1894 Herman Casler invents the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutoscope a peep-hole viewer
like Thomas Edison's Kinetoscope

1894-6, Thomas Armat's Vitascope, manufactured by the Edison factory and marketed in Edison's name, was used to project motion pictures in public screenings in New York City.

1903 Frederic Eugene Ives patented the parallax stereogram, the first "no glasses" autostereoscopic 3-D display technology. A compound image consisting of fine interlaced vertical slivers of a stereoscopic pair of images was seen in 3-D when viewed through a slightly separated fine grid of correctly spaced alternating opaque and transparent vertical lines, now known as a parallax barrier.

1915 "Jim the Penman",  the first anaglyph movie Edwin S Porter,  and William E. Waddell  red-green anaglyph test shorts in New York, but his process is never developed further. The film used was simple footage of rural landscapes and short excerpts of previous films that had been converted in to the format.

1921 Rêve d'opium France Stereo Parolini

1922 "The Power of Love", using a system developed by cinematographer Robert F Elder, is the first 3D movie screened for a paying audience, in Los Angeles.  Fairhall-Elder 3-D

1922 "The Man From MARS" aka Radio-Mania  An inventor succeeds in making contact with Mars via television. Teleview (dual-strip 3-D) (single-strip/frame sequential release print)  Using two projectors synchronised with stereo headsets, Laurens Hammond and William Cassidy present a series of shorts plus one feature, The Man From MARS, but it played only at the sole cinema equipped to project it.

"Plastigrams" This film was released on 17 December 1922 in the Ives-Leventhal stereoscopic


"Movies of The Future"

1923 Frederick Eugene Ives and Joseph Levanthal present several 3D shorts for Pathe Films.

1925 Zowie, Luna-cy!, Ouch!, A Runaway Taxi( all 3D Shorts)

1929  Edwin H. Land invented and patented a polarizing sheet. He gave the first demonstration of Polaroid filters in conjunction with 3-D photography at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in January 1936

1935 MGM's Audioscopics, developed by Joseph Leventhal and John Norling, wins the Best Short Subject (Novelty) Academy Award. 

1936  "Nozze vagabonde" (Italian: Beggers Wedding) using Systeme Gualtiero Gualtierotti single-strip 3-D system. It was the first 3-D talkie film (with a synchronized soundtrack) to encourage the use of 3D polarizing glasses by its viewing audience. 
 
"Zum Greifen nah" (German: Within reach or  You Can Nearly Touch It).

NAZI's present Raumbild 3D Film technology at the 1936 Berlin Olympics.

1939 The first commercial Polaroid 3-D film in the U.S.; commissioned by Chrysler for showing at the Chrysler Motor Pavilion at the 1939 New York World's Fair, under the title "In Tune With Tomorrow", the 15-minute short depicted a full 1939 Chrysler Plymouth being magically put together (in stop-motion), set to music. It was so popular that Chrysler commissioned a color remake for the second year of the fair, under the title "New Dimensions"; the color version was released theatrically by R.K.O. in 1953 as "Motor Rhythm"


1952-55 The first boom period in 3D cinema, led by Bwana Devil, Andre de Toth's House of Wax (the first of four 3D movies to star the determinedly one-dimensional Vincent Price, the Olivier of the form), and Dial M for Murder (filmed 3D, released "flat"). As TV menaces the studios (lately forced by the US Supreme Court to sell their cinemas), they push all kinds of new formats such as Cinerama, CinemaScope, Technicolor and VistaVision.


1953 It Came from Outer Space

Technology Filmmaker discovers Nazi 3D movies from the 1930s

Technology Filmmaker discovers Nazi 3D movies from the 1930s

From Wired.com:

Decades before Hollywood shlockmeisters rolled out their gimmicky spectacles in the mid-'50s, Nazi filmmakers made 3D propaganda films using their own versions of the format.

Stored in an obscure corner of Berlin's Federal Archives, two black-and-white shorts shot in 1936 were discovered by Australian director Philippe Mora as he researched a project on Third Reich cinema.

Mora told Variety the 3D Nazi movies, evidently filmed with a prism in front of two lenses, "were made … for Goebbels' propaganda ministry and referred to as raum film -- or space film -- which may be why no one ever realised since that they were 3D."

The half-hour films include a musical, So Real You Can Touch It, featuring close-ups of sizzling bratwurst. Six Girls Roll Into Weekend follows a group of Nazi starlets.

"The quality of the films is fantastic," Mora said. "The Nazis were obsessed with recording everything and every single image was controlled -- it was all part of how they gained control of the country and its people."

Mora, who believes there are more Nazi 3D films waiting to be unearthed, is already digging into his next project: a 3D biopic about Salvador Dali.

Films shot on 3D in pre-war Nazi Germany have been unearthed in Berlin's Federal Archives.

Two 30 minute black and white propaganda films in 1936 were found by Australian director Philippe Mora, who is prepping a feature length documentary on how the Nazis used images to manipulate reality.

Mora broke new ground with his first film "Swastika" when it was released in 1973 featuring previously unseen color footage from Hitler's "home" movies shot on a 16mm camera by his mistress Eva Braun at the Berghof mountain retreat at Obersalzberg in the Bavarian alps.

Now he has discovered that the Nazis were decades ahead of Hollywood in developing a medium first popularized in the 1950s and now enjoying an international renaissance.

"The films are shot on 35mm -- apparently with a prism in front of two lenses," Mora who is at the Berlinale for his planned $13 million 3D biopic on Salvador Dali, starring Alan Cumming and Judy Davis that he plans to shoot in Germany, Australia and Spain.

"They were made by an independent studio for Goebbels' propaganda ministry and referred to as 'raum film' -- or space film -- which may be why no one ever realised since that they were 3D."

One film, a musical set during a carnival entitled "So Real You Can Touch It" features close up shots of sizzling bratwurst on a barbeque; the other "Six Girls Roll into Weekend" has what may be UFA studio starlets living it up.

"The quality of the films is fantastic. The Nazis were obsessed with recording everything and every single image was controlled -- it was all part of how they gained control of the country and its people," Mora said.

He plans to incorporate the material in a 3D section of his documentary -- working title "How the Third Reich Was Recorded" -- and is convinced there is more vintage 3D footage out there to be found.

From http://www.s3dcentre.ca/news/nazi-3d-philippe-mora-and-me:

The Search For 3D in The Third Reich.

Mora told the audience about two Nazi stereoscopic films (shot using a process that the Nazi’s called Raumbild) that he discovered last February. Yet, what was even more unbelievable was the fact that German scientists had employed the 3D film and projection medium during the 1936 Berlin Olympics

“We subsequently discovered that a Technical unit of engineers working with Zeiss Ikon at the Technical and Physics institute in Braunschweig in 1935 and 1936 built special 16MM high-speed stereoscopic units to film certain events at the Olympics. Why? We believe they had determined that in a close race a still photo may be an inaccurate image of who won, depending on the position of the camera.

They built two stereoscopic rigs to film the events in 16MM at 50 frames per second from a special tower over-looking the finishing line. The cameras were triggered by the starter’s pistol. Even more enterprising they developed the film within seven minutes of the races finishing, and projected them with two projectors to examine the races in 3D. Many results were corrected when the judges viewed the stereoscopic films”

Arduino Face Follower

Capturing video with an arduino

FromHack-A-Day:



[Carlos Agell] sent in a tip where he captured images from an analog camera with an Arduino.

We’ve seen a few AVR/Arduino hacks that generate video, although overclocking is necessary if you want to do anything beyond a Breakout clone. [Carlos]‘ hack bucks that trend and now he can capture video with an Arduino.

The project captures individual frames from NTSC video at a resolution of 128×96. Although the Arduino isn’t powerful enough for real-time capture, [Carlos] managed this by capturing only thresholds and sending them over to a computer running a program coded in LabVIEW. The PC program reassembles the images of the thresholds and produces a tiny image in 3-bit grayscale.

[Carlos] used the Video Experimenter shield which is impressive in it’s own right. The Video Experimenter is able to do object tracking and edge detection, so we’re wondering when we’ll see robots with computer vision running off an Arduino. Check out a demo of the nootropic design video experimenter shield after the break.

UPDATE: Carlos wrote a sketch in Processing that does the same thing as his LabVIEW program.

3DX: New 3D Technology Changing How Big Brands Advertise

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

3DX: New 3D Technology Changing How Big Brands Advertise

Los Angeles, CA – The concept of 3D print advertising has always been a no-brainer: if the message is more entertaining, it should stand out and drive better results.  Then why hasn't 3D become a strong and major channel for companies looking to grab potential customers' attention? 
 
The answer is remarkably simple: it's hard to impress anyone with technology that has been in use for over 60 years.  Even when the print world expanded into ads on computers and mobile devices, when it came to 3D, companies were still relying on the same tired anaglyphs that utilized the old red/cyan glasses that were iconic in the 1950s.  Yet year after year, big brands have continued testing this medium, with recent examples including Sports Illustrated, Playboy, Vogue, and even the Kardashians.  Regardless of the topic, this dated technology has a limit, and with that boundary comes limited image depth, ghosting, poor color management, and annoying eyestrains.
 
That's where Los Angeles based tech company 3DX has come in and already made its mark on the advertising world.  As 3DX CEO Ziggy Kormandel sees it, there isn't a place for old technology in today's world. "It amazed me that today's consumer – who is no stranger to voicing his or her opinion – was basically giving 3D a free pass," he said. "Yet these are the same people who line up to pay an extra $5-10 to see a 3D movie.  We found that disconnect fascinating and aimed to bridge the gap between 3D expectations and actual performance."  3DX ventured into the print space with a direct mail test that featured its patented Phantaglyph® technology, and the conversion rates immediately told Kormandel that the hunger for a higher-quality 3D product was out there.  "Our Phantaglyphs® are unreal; they're stunning 3D images that rise off a printed page, tablet, or mobile device like a holograph in a sci-fi movie.  If someone wants their brand to literally stand out, we can make it happen."
 
The level of 3DX's quality and expertise has already attracted some of the most known names out there today.  After successful projects with Sony and Honda, world-renowned direct marketing company Guthy-Renker™ was impressed as well and recently brought 3DX in on a campaign featuring one of the biggest names in music and entertainment today.
 
"3DX's technology is intriguing and with our celebrity spokesperson roster and social activation goals, exploring the incorporation of 3D imagery was an exciting and innovative step for us," said Corrie Murphy, Vice President of PR and Social Media for Guthy-Renker. "The 3D images are eye-catching and represent something new for our brand."
 
Kormandel is already viewing the landscape and planning his next moves. "3DX's technology allows brands to take their normal methods of marketing and add an extra level of entertainment.  We're not finding many limits either. From mobile games and applications to cereal boxes, 3D floor rugs, and even the next evolution of pop-up books, we're able to capture attention faster and better.  Who wouldn't want that?"

Super Hi-Vision at 120fps for Olympics

Posted: 08 Mar 2012 05:12 AM PST

NHK is developing an 8K image sensor for its Super Hi-Vision Ultra HD system capable of 120 frames per second, which it plans to unveil in Tokyo on 23 April and should be ready for use at the London Olympics.

The new 33-megapixel (7680x4320 pixel) CMOS sensor will use an advanced two-stage (4-bit then 8-bit) cyclic analogue-to-digital converter to deliver a 12-bit image at the higher frame rate (twice that of the current SHV cameras). This architecture also allows it to reduce power consumption, with the ADC drawing 800mW (out of a total drive power of 2.5W). To deal with the high number of pixels involved, the sensor outputs alternating rows of pixels to ADCs on either side, each of which has 48 parallel outputs.

The sensors will probably still get rather warm at these frame rates, so heat management will be a significant issue. Each pixel measures 2.8 x 2.8 microns, and the 26.5 x 21.2mm chip (which is about the width of a Super35mm sensor, but taller) will use a 0.18-micron manufacturing process. The chip is being developed with Shizuoka University, and engineers revealed details of the sensor at the recent IEEE International Solid-State Circuit Conference in San Francisco.

Two SHV cameras will be used to capture parts of the 2012 Olympics, with transmission to three large screens around the UK (plus one in the International Broadcast Centre) and three in Japan. Having the 120fps sensor will reduce motion blur and allow for much better slo-mo replay.

However, as the resolution increases (and 8K is 16 times the resolution of HD), motion defects become much more noticeable. "300 frames per second might just be acceptable, but 600fps would be better," said colour scientist and camera consultant, Alan Roberts. At 300fps, the material would also be easily compatible with both 50 and 60Hz display.

Using Long GoP compression, which typically combines a group of pictures in half a second, would lead to a GoP of 150 or 300 frames, but this wouldn't lead to huge bandwidth requirements. "The motion between frames is very small, so the compression is much easier," he explained, which means the increase in bit rate needed to convey high framerate material is minimal. "The problem is in the shooting and the editing, because of the monstrous data files you have to deal with," he added.
