Automatic cutting of boring parts from long videos

Posted: 25 Jun 2014 10:24 AM PDT

Smartphones, GoPro cameras and Google Glass are making it easy for anyone to shoot video anywhere. But, they do not make it any easier to watch the tedious videos that can result. Computer scientists, however, have invented a video highlighting technique that can automatically pick out the good parts.

Innovation: Magnetic field conductors

Posted: 25 Jun 2014 07:13 AM PDT

Physicists have developed a new technology to transfer magnetic fields to arbitrary long distances, which is comparable to transmitting and routing light in optical fibers. They have theoretically proposed and already tested this new device experimentally. The field of possible applications is broad and includes spintronic and quantum computers among others.

Verification protocol for data storage or transmission: Ghost writing the whip

Posted: 24 Jun 2014 10:56 AM PDT

"Ghost imaging" sounds like the spooky stuff of frivolous fiction, but it's an established technique for reconstructing hi-res images of objects partly obscured by clouds or smoke. Now a group of researchers is applying the same idea in reverse to securing stored or shared electronic data. Their work establishes "marked ghost imaging" technology as a new type of multi-layer verification protocol for data storage or transmission.
