Dartmouth Professor finds that iconic Oswald photo was not faked
Dartmouth Computer Scientist Hany Farid has new evidence regarding a photograph of accused John F. Kennedy assassin Lee Harvey Oswald. Farid, a pioneer in the field of digital forensics, digitally analyzed an iconic image of Oswald pictured in a backyard setting holding a rifle in one hand and Marxist newspapers in the other. view more (2009-11-06)
We need better yardstick to measure digital divide, researcher says
Relying on easy-to-measure factors like how many Internet access points a place has presents a simplistic picture of today's digital divide. A more sophisticated approach is needed to get an honest assessment of who is being left behind. view more (2006-10-13)

Astronomers discover largest-ever dark matter structures spanning 270M light-years
A University of British Columbia astronomer with an international team has discovered the largest structures of dark matter ever seen. Measuring 270 million light-years across, these dark matter structures criss-cross the night sky, each spanning an area that is eight times larger than the full moon. view more (2008-02-22)
X-Ray For Grain
Researchers from St. Petersburg have invented a way to check the viability of grains and seeds of agricultural plants without prior germination. The scientists assume that injuries of the germ and tissues of seeds can be revealed through X-ray photomicrography with the help of computer recognition system. This methodology allows determining the... view more... (2003-02-20)
Instants In The Flow - Request Stop
The Novosibirsk researchers have developed a device capable of producing mist with support from the Russian Foundation for Basic Research and the Foundation for Assistance to Small Innovative Enterprises (FASIE). The precise name of the device is "field device for measuring liquid and gas velocities". It helps to perform prompt, precise... view more... (2005-02-14)
Technological competence not sufficient for success in the digital gaming machine industry
The shift from electromechanical to digital technology generated a lot of opportunities for the gaming industry, but it simultaneously created a new set of prerequisites for success. view more (2009-03-03)

Computers controlled by the Human Eye
Soon computers and many other household devices will guess the owner`s will by a slightly seen gesture or a frowned brow. This confidence has appeared for good reason: such programs have already being developed. In particular, scientists from the Research Institute of Experimental Physics in Sarov have made their own version. The principles on... view more... (2001-12-25)
Distant Galaxies Are In The Red
According to scientists from the Institute of Astronomy, University of Cambridge, red is the colour favoured by distant galaxies. But the reason for this is still not clear. Working with astronomers in California and Canada, the Cambridge team used a special infrared-sensitive camera to carry out a large-scale survey of distant galaxies. The main... view more...

When it comes to information overload, two heads may not be better than one
In an age of e-mails, databases and online catalogues, two heads may no longer be better than one, according to new ESRC-sponsored research into the effects of information overload. view more (2005-03-23)
Portable power plants
Running a laptop or other electrical equipment causes a problem when there is no access to a mains supply: If the battery runs out, where can you recharge it? This is a particularly thorny issue if, for example, your work takes you out on the road or involves spending lots of time on construction sites. In the long run spare batteries do not... view more... (2003-04-04)

Integral - tracking extreme radiation across the Universe
The world`s most advanced gamma-ray space telescope Integral [International Gamma Ray Astrophysics Laboratory] was successfully launched today [17 October 2002] from the Baikonur Cosmodrome, Kazakhstan. Integral will provide first-hand observations of cosmic objects that release some of the most energetic radiation of the Universe. British... view more... (2002-10-11)
World's fastest camera relies on an entirely new type of imaging
Ultrafast, light-sensitive video cameras are needed for observing high-speed events such as shockwaves, communication between living cells, neural activity, laser surgery and elements of blood analysis. view more (2009-04-30)
Funnel in the eye: Signal focusing increases photosensitivity
In poor light the eyes of mice react like some digital cameras: they reduce their resolution while at the same time increasing their sensitivity. Specialists in the retina focus the information of several light sensor cells for this purpose. view more (2006-11-03)
