UC-23-3D 1080p Stereoscopic Camera Module

It's expensive but looks great.  Dual synchronized cameras.  It can output a combined single hdmi output for use with non 3d streaming systems.

This could turn a Cisco or Polycom or a PC in to a 3d video conference system if you use the right monitors.

Fwd: Comcast's $2.2 Trillion Nightmare

Isnt going to happen.  Cable is a broadcast medium.  At the physical layer, its much more efficient the trying to unicast live tv.

Also comcast with tivo is the only system that can do cable tv and internet video in one box.

So far apple and google have only shown how clueless they are about video.  Its not a technical issue.  I showed D1 video over the internet to the studios in 1996 to 1999.  My conclusion they have no hurry, or motivation to change.  Now that there partners control the last mile, piracy is also not a real threat like it was for the music industry. Its so tightly bound with legal contracts that change is nearly impossible except for the disney, nbc and other players at that scale.

They will never let tv live up to its true potential.

What I've learned from 35 years of wearing computerised eyewear

Steve Mann on his 35-year history building and wearing computerised eyewear. "Was it blind luck (pardon the expression) that I was wearing this vision-enhancing system at the time of the accident? Not at all: I have been designing, building, and wearing some form of this gear for more than 35 years." Glass has the potential to have a huge impact on the world - and just like with the advent of the mobile phone, people are afraid, cynical, and unable to see the possibly huge benefits of systems like this.

New Optrix XD5 Transforms your iPhone 5 into an Incredibly Tough Action Video Camera System Now available, the XD5 fits the iPhone 5 like a glove for unparalleled protection against water and shocks Marin, CA – February 27, 2013 – Optrix, designer of ultra-rugged action video and sports specialty housings for the iPhone, announces the availability of Optrix XD5, the first ultra-rugged, camera optimizing system for iPhone 5 that enables users to record wide-angle HD videos under the most punishing conditions. Optrix XD5 system incorporates features from its award-winning XD4 product, including the 175 degree lens that enhances the iPhone 5's 1080p HD optics and the clear protective membrane that enables users to continue using their iPhone while in the housing.  It enhances the previous design with a thinner, lighter and stronger unibody, and a new rail mounting system for quick on-off for helmets, chest mounts, water sport mounts, handle mounts, and more. "Optrix is proud to unveil the world's toughest case that disaster proofs the iPhone 5," said John Willenborg, founder of Optrix.  "The XD5 is the only iPhone 5 camera system built for sports enthusiasts by sports enthusiasts." Designed using the same concept as a Formula 1 race car, the XD5 utilizes a "monocoque" protective unibody system that encapsulates the iPhone 5, shielding it from pressure and making it drop safe from up to 40ft.  In addition, the XD5's enhanced design utilizes a unique waterproofing seal that guarantees waterproof ability up to a depth of 15ft. "Many action sports camera systems exist in the market, but only the XD5 takes into account real life video capturing needs," added Willenborg.  "The ability to easily adjust shooting angles, access to all controls and its compatibility with multiple mounting options solidifies the XD5 as the ideal action camera system for the iPhone 5." The XD5 also incorporates a second door to access charging connectors, headphone jack and microphone, making it the ideal option as an everyday rugged case.  For iPhone 5 users wishing to enhance their videos, Optrix provides a suite of cutting-edge video recording and editing software and apps, including VideoPro, which adds full telemetry data such as speed, G-force, lap time and track map onto the video. Optrix XD5 action video making system can be found at select Apple, Best Buy and Target stores; and online at Apple.com, Bestbuy.com and www.optrix.com.  For additional information, visit our website or contact PR representative Pedro Chen at 305-374-4404 x139, PedroChen@maxborgesagency.com.
