On two occasions, I've encountered artifacts in my photos that I've converted from NEF (using Nikon D7000) to DNG format in Lightroom 3.6. Is there a "fix" for this?
The artifact shows up as a square in the middle of the photograph. The artifact seems to contains a mix colors, in lines. (It looks similar to what one might see on a graphic representation of a PC's defrag routine...hope that makes sense.) The artifact takes up less than 5% of the image. It is very strange.
I exported the image to a JPEG onto my hard drive and found that the resulting file does indeed also contain the blemish. (Therefore, I'm assuming, as you state, that the DNG is corrupt). I always have converted my files while importing. Would the process be more reliable and free from corruption by converting after import?
Probably not. It's the same process.
Late-model DNGs contain a checksum that alerts Adobe programs if they go corrupt after they were created, and your files don't do that. If they did, you'd get an error message when you tried to us the DNG. That says to me that either the original raw file was corrupt or that the corruption happened during the creation process. Do you still have the original?
I'd say so. It's good to keep backups of all your images.
We're left with the question of how it happened, but I'm fresh out of ideas. Does your computer have a memory test application that you could run? If so, you might want to run it. Intermittent problems can be caused by hardware glitches.
I have seen this photo corruption issue cropping up regularly on forums (it also happened to me years ago). The worst thing is that it is a silent process: if one doesn't happen to look at a particular photo one may never know that it is corrupted.
I put a feature request forward to implement an automatic photo integrity check into Lightroom:
http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/photo_integrity_ check
Please feel free to add your vote.
Hal, my understanding is that this check is done only when working on an image (DNG). So if the image is left alone - say for 6 months - Lightroom won't provide any warning, is that correct?
1- So it looks like a very quick implementation of the data integrity check would be to do the check on demand for every DNG in the catalogue.
2- At a second stage, this function could be extended by creating checksum for all types of raw files and also jpg.
Yes, you're correct. It sounds perfectly feasible to keep a checksum in the database for other file types. I voted for your idea.
Here's an interesting article: http://dpbestflow.org/data-validation/dng-validation
Currently, the only way to check a large number of DNGs is to run the free DNG converter on them, which can take a long time and requires disk space for the second copies. The Adobe SDK has a function for checking the checksums, so it sounds like a relatively easy task to write a small app that would validate an entire directory tree containing DNGs. That could be quite fast and would be a good thing to run periodically.

Reading Questions for
A Ticket to the Circus
Oprah.com | From the April 2010 issue of
O, The Oprah Magazine
Warning: May contain spoilers
1. One reviewer described Norris' life as a series of emancipations. From what or whom do you think she was liberated? Was she really able to leave her childhood and life in Arkansas, or was her life there too much a part of who she was?
2. How did you relate to Norris' childhood with regard to her religious upbringing? Did you see it as harsh or loving? How far should you go in allowing religion to dictate your life?
3. Upon beginning life with Norman, Norris realized that public perception of him was often greatly at odds with the man she knew. How should she have handled ugly comments about the man she loved?
4. Being with someone who is so successful in their field can be intimidating, especially if you have aspirations in the same field. Did Norris do the right thing in putting her novel away when Norman was less than enthusiastic about it? Or should she have ignored it and continued writing?
5. Being related to a famous man is a double-edged sword, at best. As the wife of a controversial celebrity, was it harder or easier for Norris to succeed?
6. The age difference didn't seem to be an issue between Norman and Norris for quite a long time, but it was hard in later years. In what ways did their age gap bolster their relationship, and it what ways did it put strain on it? What roles do age and life experience play in relationships, especially marriage?
7. Knowing Norman's history and reputation as a womanizer, should Norris have been more guarded? Why or why not?
8. Being a step parent is a difficult relationship, for many reasons. Why do you think Norris had such a good relationship with the children? How does the definition of what it means to be a mother or father extend beyond shared DNA?
9. At one point, after Norris discovered the extent of Norman's infidelities, she describes herself as having taken a step away from him in her heart. Is it necessary to do that, if you want to protect yourself? Can you ever take that step back again and have a relationship as close as it was? If not, then what kind of relationship is possible? How do you move on? Can you control it?
10. Discuss how you viewed Norman Mailer before reading
A Ticket to the Circus
, as well as after. Did Norris' intimate, private account of life with a very public man change your opinions of him? Are we ultimately better defined not by what we do, but by the people we love—or more importantly, who loves us back?

Taco Bell is doing away with kid's meals and toys at all U.S. Restaurants. The company announced today (Tuesday) they will phase out the children's items by next year.
In a statement, Taco Bell's CEO said it "no longer makes sense" to spend resources for kid's meals and toys and that the change will have an "insignificant" impact on sales.
Taco Bell says it is the first national fast food chain to eliminate kid's meals. The move comes amid pressure from health groups for the fast food industry to improve the nutrition of kid's meals.

Richard Poole
by Everyday Connection in Books
Tags: humaitarian relief Richard Poole Author Blended Being
Richard Poole has spent over thirty years working in emergency relief, reconstruction and development in Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean. He now lives in Colchester, UK.
Drawing extensively on his experiences of more than thirty years as a humanitarian worker, Richard Poole takes us on a journey from our earliest origins to our present day, one that enables us to see how far we have strayed from our guiding principles to create a world that is bent on self-destruction.
Mankind's Last Chance argues that the repair of our broken societies, our collapsing economies and our wrecked environment lies not in the application of any new form of political and economic governance but in a moral re-awakening and a renewed commitment to the common good that can only come from a spiritual transformation on a universal scale.
More importantly it tells us where the source of such a transformation is to be found and how it can be achieved.

Rosen called the children's parents, using cellphone numbers obtained from the school bus company, and they came and retrieved their children.
One little girl, he said, spent the entire ordeal clutching a small stuffed Dalmatian to her chest and staring out the window looking for her mommy.
And one little boy brought them all a moment of levity.
"This little boy turns around, and composes himself, and he looks at me like he had just removed himself from the carnage and he says, 'Just saying, your house is very small,'" Rosen said. "I wanted to tell him, 'I love you. I love you.'"
Rosen said Sandy Hook had always been a place of joy for him. He taught his 8-year-old grandson to ride his bike in the school parking lot and took his 4-year-old granddaughter to use the swings.
"I thought today how life has changed, how that ground has been marred, how that school has been desecrated," he said.
He said it wasn't his training as a psychologist that helped him that day - it was being a grandparent.
A couple of hours after the last child left, a knock came on his door. It was a frantic mother who had heard that some children had taken refuge there. She was looking for her little boy.
"Her face looked frozen in terror," Rosen said, breaking down in tears.
"She thought maybe a miracle from God would have the child at my house," he said. Later, "I looked at the casualty list . . . and his name was on it."

Article Highlights
- Only 25% of full-time community college students finish their degree in 3 years @AEIeducation
- Every student who drops out of community college represents an investment loss #taxpayers
- Some needed community college reforms: more online courses and evaluate faculty based on students @AEIeducation
Community colleges are central to the nation's higher education system, enrolling almost 30% of all postsecondary students. But their record of success is spotty.
Nationally, only about a quarter of full-time community college students complete their studies within three years (the official measure of a school's graduation rate).
At more than a third of California's community colleges, graduation rates are 20% or less. Of the full-time, degree-seeking students who entered California community colleges in 2007, more than 35,000 had not earned their degrees three years later, and most of them were no longer enrolled in any postsecondary institution.
This happens year after year after year, and it's not only the dropouts who are harmed. When students fail to complete their degrees, taxpayers also lose.
Community colleges are subsidized through direct state and local government appropriations and through student grant programs. Every student who drops out represents an investment loss by the taxpayers in that student's uncompleted education.
"Competency- based models would allow for the certification of prior learning, speeding time to graduation."
Because students who complete their degrees earn more money than high school graduates or dropouts, taxpayers win when students graduate. The higher wages they earn as a result generate higher income taxes.
We recently took a hard look at the economics of community colleges and calculated that if the schools could reduce by half the number of students who drop out each year, more than 150,000 more students nationwide would get associate degrees each year. More than 18,000 of those students would be graduating from community colleges in California.
We further calculated that these newly minted community college graduates would earn an additional $1.4 billion in income nationwide, which would translate into an additional $200 million in federal income taxes and $60 million in state income taxes each year. California's share of these added benefits would be large: an additional $100 million in income, more than $16 million in additional dollars in federal income taxes and more than $4 million in additional California income taxes.
The question is: What can be done to make this happen?
We know that the longer a student takes to complete a degree, the more likely it is that something will happen to derail his plans. Many students start at community colleges needing remedial classes to bring them to the point where they can handle college work. One important step to reducing the number of dropouts would be to streamline remediation programs so that students can more quickly get to a level where the classes they take earn them college credits.
Community colleges could expand their online course offerings as well. Online delivery of class content renders the traditional limitations of geographic distance, physical capacity and time moot. Instructors can reach far more students online than in traditional physical classrooms, and online courses can start any day of any week and any week of the year. Online delivery would also significantly lower the costs of providing and attending courses for both community colleges and students.
Another way to reduce the number of dropouts would be to replace a system that awards degrees based on "seat time" with a system that rewards subject mastery. This would allow students to move at their own pace through a course of study, progressing from one concept to the next after passing assessment tests. Competency-based models would allow for the certification of prior learning, speeding time to graduation.
Finally, for-profit institutions embody a host of ideas that community colleges should emulate. Despite being the subject of negative scrutiny over the last year or so, many for-profit colleges are leading the way in developing innovative online learning platforms and redefining an approach to curriculum development and faculty training to encourage uniformity in instruction across multiple sites and instructors. Faculty at the best for-profit institutions are evaluated on the basis of their students' learning outcomes, and promotion and salary decisions are based in part on these metrics. Graduation rates at two-year for-profit institutions are almost three times higher than at public community colleges.
Reforms such as these could transform today's inefficient and costly community college system. These reforms are not necessarily expensive, especially in relation to the tax dollars lost each year through lower income and lower tax collections, as well as the billions of dollars in government appropriations that subsidize the tuition paid by students who fail to graduate.

Shaken baby syndrome is brain injury that occurs when someone shakes a baby or throws a baby against an object. It is a form of child abuse. It may happen to children up to 5 years of age, but it is most common in babies younger than 1 year old.
It is never okay to shake or throw a young child. It may not leave any obvious sign of injury, but it can cause serious long-term problems or even death.
Shaken baby syndrome often occurs when a baby won't stop crying and a caregiver loses control of his or her emotions. Parents can help prevent this problem by learning healthy ways to relieve stress and anger. It's also important to choose child care providers carefully.
Shaken baby syndrome may also be called "shaken-impact syndrome." Many doctors use the term "abusive head trauma" to describe the injury. They may use "intentional head injury" to describe how it happened.
When a baby is shaken or thrown, the head twists or whips back and forth. This can cause tears in brain tissue, blood vessels, and nerves. The child's brain slams against the skull. This can cause bleeding and swelling in the brain.
Young children are at high risk for brain injury when they are shaken or thrown. That's because they have:
Normal play, such as bouncing a child on a knee or gently tossing a child in the air, does not cause shaken baby syndrome.
Symptoms vary among children based on how old they are, how often they've been abused, how long they were abused each time, and how much force was used.
Mild injuries may cause subtle symptoms. For example, a child may:
A child with more severe injuries may have symptoms such as:
A child who has been shaken or thrown may also have other signs of abuse, such as broken bones, bruises, or burns.
Symptoms can start quickly, especially in a badly injured child. Other times, it may take a few days for brain swelling to cause symptoms.
Sometimes caregivers who harm a child will put the child to bed. They may hope that symptoms will get better with rest. By the time the child gets to a doctor, the child may need urgent care. In some cases, the child may be in a coma before a caregiver seeks help.
Shaken baby syndrome can be hard to detect because often there aren't clear signs of abuse. Instead, a baby may have vague symptoms, such as vomiting or a poor appetite. At first these symptoms may seem related to an infection, such as the flu or a kidney infection. Sadly, shaken baby syndrome may not be discovered until repeated abuse or more severe harm occurs.
To confirm a diagnosis of shaken baby syndrome, a doctor will:
A doctor may also do tests to rule out other possible causes of the child's symptoms. For example, a lumbar puncture checks the spinal fluid for signs of meningitis. Blood tests may be done to check for internal injuries or to rule out other conditions, such as rare blood disorders.
A doctor who suspects shaken baby syndrome must report it to the local child welfare office and police.
A child with shaken baby syndrome needs to be in the hospital, sometimes in an intensive care unit (ICU). Oxygen therapy may be used to help the child breathe. Doctors may give the child medicine to help ease brain swelling. Sometimes a cooling mattress will help lower the child's body temperature and reduce brain swelling.
Depending on the symptoms, doctors may try seizure medicine, physical therapy, or other treatments. A child who has severe bleeding in the brain may need surgery.
A child may have brain damage that causes one or more serious problems, such as:
Some children die from their injuries.
It is important to get help if something doesn't seem right with your baby. Shaken baby syndrome may cause only mild symptoms at first, but any head injury in a young child can be dangerous.
Call 911 or other emergency services immediately if a child:
Young children can't defend themselves, so it is up to adults who care to protect them. If you suspect abuse and the child is not in immediate danger:

GAH!: Creepy 3-D Printed Doppelganger Dolls
You do realize that thing's just a lock of hair, drop of blood and piece of worn clothing away from a functional voodoo doll of yourself, right?
Are you in the market for a creepy 3-D printed 20" Barbie doll of yourself? Because guess what? You're also in the market for a mouthful of Geekologie Writer fist if you are. THIS SHIT AIN'T RIGHT. But, for $1,750, the CloneFactory will make you one anyways, using a 3-D printer that both cuts your head AND paints it in one fell swoop. The future is now, folks, and we're living in. But your two grand doesn't stop there -- oh no -- they'll also make your doppelganger a complete custom-made outfit of your choosing. "I want a ballerina dress!" We know you do, Derrek, we know you do. Derrek's my roommate by the way. That or an imaginary friend, it's hard to tell. Not that there's a difference anyway! Get it? Because you secretly hate all your roommates.

Cessna Citation Mustang Achieves Russian Certification
The Citation Mustang is now certified in 60 countries including the United States.
MOSCOW, Sept. 16, 2009 - Cessna Aircraft Company, a Textron Inc. (NYSE: TXT) company, has received Russian type certification for the Citation Mustang from Russia's MAK (Interstate Aviation Committee, Aviation Register).
The Citation Mustang is now certified in 60 countries including the United States. Cessna has delivered more than 200 Mustangs from the company's Independence, Kan., facility since April 2007.
"The Citation Mustang expands the sensible solutions any potential Russian purchaser will find with our line of Citation business jets, and the aircraft is proving to be as reliable and robust as other Citations," said Cessna Vice President, International Sales, Trevor Esling. "The Mustang's entry into service has been extraordinary around the globe and interest from the market continues to grow, including a fleet order announced in 2008 from a Russian operator."
MAK previously certified five current production models: the Citation X, Sovereign, CJ3, CJ2+ and CJ1+.

We got back 10 killer concoctions representing a wide variety of beer styles and brewing methods. (Note: For definitions of some of the specialty jargon, check the glossary and tips at the end.)

Mash for 10 minutes at 113 degrees F, 10 minutes at 122 F, 60 minutes at 149 F, and 10 minutes at 168 F. Boil for 90 minutes. Fermentation: Make 1 liter of starter wort and aerate it on a stir plate. Add oxygen in-line as the wort was transferred from the chiller to the carboy. Pitch yeast at 58 F. Allow fermentation to rise to 62 F for the first three days. Raise temperature to 65 F for four more days. Then raise to 68 F to clean up any off flavors. Drop temperature to 34 F for three days to crash yeast, proteins, and tannins. Keg and carbonate to 4 volumes CO2. Brewer's notes: This is a very simple recipe that relies on fermentation-derived flavors and proper mouth feel to achieve the best result. The step mash procedure I used was developed via trial and error over a number of batches. The ferulic acid rest increases the clove character of the beer, while the protein and the low saccharification-rest temp creates a highly fermentable wort with a creamy mouthfeel. Carbonating to 3.5 to 4 volumes is necessary for this beer to be true to style and enhances the mouthfeel and refreshing nature of the beer.

The Canadian Churches' Forum for Global Ministries (formerly The Ecumenical Forum of Canada) is among the oldest ecumenical organizations in Canada, having emerged from the Canadian School of Missions founded in 1921 by several churches and theological colleges. For over eighty years the Forum has played a unique role in preparing people for cross-cultural mission and ministry.
Our goal is to stimulate ecumenical dialogue on issues of mission, global concerns and social justice and to prepare individuals to serve faithfully in mission in an ever-changing world. As it has since its inception, the Forum continues to foster a deep spirit of community and solidarity among groups and individuals of distinct traditions and beliefs involved in global ministry through its Mission Personnel and other cross-cultural activities.

The Canadian Council of Churches is the most inclusive ecumenical body in Canada and one of the broadest ecumenical councils in the world. Its membership currently consists of 22 denominations of the Anglican, Roman Catholic, Protestant, Evangelical and Eastern and Oriental Orthodox traditions. The officers and staff of the Council are drawn from the diversity of traditions represented by the member denominations.
The CCC was founded in 1944 to bring churches into encounter with one another, and as such, the CCC is a place where all voices hold equal weight. The members act together in areas of Faith and Witness, Justice and Peace, and Biotechnology, according to their particular theologies and polities, and centered in their common Trinitarian witness.
An example of recent work is the leadership of the CCC in a Religious Leaders' Summit held in parallel with the G8 meeting to comment on and challenge the G8 for the sake of God's people.

There has been a growing trend to offer women, who need mastectomies, immediate breast reconstruction. This has the obvious advantage of a single major surgery (there are always small ones to "tweak" the reconstructed breast and immediate area) and not have to contend with a flat chest. As this surgery has become more common, there have been studies to examine the possible risks. Specifically, the concerns focus on possible damage to the new breast from post-op radiation therapy and whether chemotherapy might delay good healing. As always, the advice is to speak with your doctors about your particular situation. It is never "one size fits all." I wrote about this several days ago, and here is a quote from Journal Watch about another study and then a link to read more:
The Multidisciplinary Spectrum of Cancer Therapy: Effects on Immediate Breast Reconstruction
More-selective use of postmastectomy radiotherapy is appropriate; use and timing of chemotherapy might not affect surgical outcomes.

Personalized treatments for people with back pain and spine disorders
The team of experts at the Duke Spine Center offers a number of techniques to address even the most challenging cases of spinal deformity.
Complex spinal reconstruction surgeries may be necessary for patients who have a deformity or misalignment affecting a major portion of their spine.
These treatment procedures consist of correcting the abnormal curvature, stabilizing the newly shaped spine with rods and pins, and finally fusing the vertebrae together.
Scoliosis and kyphosis are common conditions that may require a complex spinal reconstruction due to the involvement of a great portion of the spine.
Other conditions, such as sagittal imbalance, may also require this type of surgery.

Research Projects
Augmenting Reflection and Awareness with Wearable Devices
Pattie Maes, Sophia Brueckner, Tinsley Galyean and The Dalai Lama Center for Ethics and Transformative ValuesWith this project, we are building wearable devices that can be used to encourage connectedness, awareness, and reflection, providing a radically different type of technology for social networking.
Data Objects
Pattie Maes and Sang-won LeighWith the advent of touch screens and gesture systems, computing has become manipulating digital data by tapping, dragging, and making hand gestures. However, one of the most crucial functions of hands is missing in this context: carrying. Data has an un-carry-able form, as visualized shapes in 2D displays. Data can't leave displays while retaining their own visual shapes: they become invisible data over Internet cables–wireless signals. This project aims to transform digital data into a more objectified form, which we can carry with our hands, in our pockets, not through any digital devices or storage which have been playing a role as "containers" of digital data. The short-term goal of this project is to create proof-of-concept interactions based on existing platforms, and then to create new technologies to bring an authentic experience of manipulating digital data as physical objects.
EyeRing: A Compact, Intelligent Vision System on a Ring
Roy Shilkrot and Suranga NanayakkaraEyeRing is a wearable intuitive interface that allows a person to point at an object to see or hear more information about it. We came up with the idea of a micro camera worn as a ring on the index finger with a button on the side, which can be pushed with the thumb to take a picture or a video that is then sent wirelessly to a mobile phone to be analyzed. The user uses voice to instruct the system on what information they are interested in and they receive the answer in either auditory or visual form. The device also provides some simple haptic feedback. This finger-worn configuration of sensors & actuators opens up a myriad of possible applications for the visually impaired as well as for sighted people.
Pattie Maes, Jürgen Steimle and Andreas JordtFlexpad is a highly flexible display interface. Using a Kinect camera and a projector, Flexpad transforms virtually any sheet of paper or foam into a flexible, highly deformable, and spatially aware handheld display. It uses a novel approach for tracking deformed surfaces from depth images in real time. This approach captures deformations in high detail, is very robust to occlusions created by the user's hands and fingers, and does not require any kind of markers or visible texture. As a result, the display is considerably more deformable than previous work on flexible handheld displays, enabling novel applications that leverage the high expressiveness of detailed deformation.
Glassified: Explorations with Transparent Displays
Pattie Maes and Anirudh SharmaThis project explores techniques and applications for using truly transparent displays for augmented reality. The user looks at the physical world through a piece of glass/lens and perceives relevant digital annotations. Unlike traditional handheld augmented-reality solutions such as Layar or Wikitude, the user can see through the screen to look at and interact with the objects behind it. Among other applications, we have built a prototypes of a "smart ruler" which can augment paper drawings with measurements, physical simulations, etc.
InterPlay: Full-Body Interaction Platform
Pattie Maes, Seth Hunter and Pol Pla i ConesaInterPlay is a platform for designers to create interactive experiences that transform public spaces into immersive environments where people become the central agents. It uses computer vision and projection to facilitate full-body interaction with digital content. The physical world is augmented to create shared experiences that encourage active play, negotiation, and creative composition.
Natan Linder, Pattie Maes and Rony KubatLuminAR reinvents the traditional incandescent bulb and desk lamp, evolving them into a new category of robotic, digital information devices. The LuminAR Bulb combines a Pico-projector, camera, and wireless computer in a compact form factor. This self-contained system enables users with just-in-time projected information and a gestural user interface, and it can be screwed into standard light fixtures everywhere. The LuminAR Lamp is an articulated robotic arm, designed to interface with the LuminAR Bulb. Both LuminAR form factors dynamically augment their environments with media and information, while seamlessly connecting with laptops, mobile phones, and other electronic devices. LuminAR transforms surfaces and objects into interactive spaces that blend digital media and information with the physical space. The project radically rethinks the design of traditional lighting objects, and explores how we can endow them with novel augmented-reality interfaces.
MARS: Manufacturing Augmented Reality System
Rony Daniel Kubat, Natan Linder, Niaja Farve, Yihui Saw and Pattie MaesProjected augmented reality in the manufacturing plant can increase worker productivity, reduce errors, gamify the workspace to increase worker satisfaction, and collect detailed metrics. We have built new LuminAR hardware customized for the needs of the manufacturing plant and software for a specific manufacturing use case.
Moving Portraits
Pattie MaesMusical Paintings
Eric Rosenbaum and Sophia BruecknerTouch the painting to release its music. Slide your finger across it to play melodies, play chords with your palm, improvise a duet. We've combined traditional painting techniques with conductive paint and capacitive touch sensing. The result is a new form of visual music, combining composition and instrument into a playable score.
Ogle: A Mobile Eye-Tracking Application Platform
Pattie Maes and Niaja FarveAlthough the eye, its movements, and how it works has been studied since the late 1800s, studies involving eye tracking have been primarily constrained to stationary applications, due to limitations in computational power as well as the bulky size of the equipment. Recent advances in hardware technology have made it possible to use eye-tracking technology in a mobile context. Ogle is a platform for compact, mobile eye tracking for everyday use applications.
OpenShades: Augmented Reality with Google Glass
Brandyn White, Scott Greenwald, Andrew Miller, Kurtis Nelson, and Pattie MaesWe are exploring the use of Google Glass for augmented reality. The Glass display allows us to overlay information on the world. Streaming data from Glass, and communicating back to the user with the display, we can enable remote people to see and participate in activities—to teach, learn, and collaborate. Using a combination of software and hardware tools, we aim to facilitate this type of interaction.
Perifoveal Display
Valentin Heun, Anette von Kapri and Pattie MaesToday's computer screens are ill-suited for displaying large amounts of dynamic data such as stock market updates or control room data. The Perifoveal Display is a multi-screen display that is aware of the user's focus of attention and adapts the rendering of the data based on this information. Information in the user's visual periphery is displayed using motion and larger black and white blocks, while information in the user's foveal visual area is displayed in very fine detail. Using this technology the user's entire visual system can be used to more easily monitor large amounts of changing data.
Reality Editor: Programming Smarter Objects
Valentin Heun, James Hobin, Pattie MaesThe Reality Editor system supports editing the behavior and interfaces of so-called "smart objects"–objects or devices that have an embedded processor and communication capability. Using augmented reality techniques, the Reality Editor maps graphical elements directly on top of the tangible interfaces found on physical objects, such as push buttons or knobs. The Reality Editor allows flexible reprogramming of the interfaces and behavior of the objects as well as defining relationships between smart objects in order to easily create new functionalities.
Reprogramming Body-Control System
Sang-won Leigh, Ermal Dreshaj, Pattie Maes and Mike BoveThis project aims to create technologies to support people who have lost the ability to control a certain part of their body, or who are attempting sophisticated tasks beyond their capabilities, using wearable sensing and actuating techniques. Our strategy is to mix a body gesture/signal detection system and a muscle actuating/limiting system, and to reprogram the way human body parts are controlled. For example, paralyzed people could regain the experience of grasping with their hands by actuating hand muscles based on gaze gestures. People who have lost leg control could control their legs with finger movement–and be able to drive a car without special assist. People handling very fragile objects could limit their grasping strength using voice commands ("not stronger," "weaker"). A person with a specific skill could help another complete a complicated task via another's body control system.
Six-Forty by Four-Eighty: An Interactive Lighting System
Marcelo Coelho and Jamie ZigelbaumSix-Forty by Four-Eighty is an interactive lighting system composed of an array of magnetic physical pixels. Individually, pixel-tiles change their color in response to touch and communicate their state to each other by using a person's body as the conduit for information. When grouped together, the pixel-tiles create patterns and animations that can serve as a tool for customizing our physical spaces. By transposing the pixel from the confines of the screen and into the physical world, focus is drawn to the materiality of computation and new forms for design emerge.
Pranav MistryTeleStudio
Seth HunterTeleKinect is peer-to-peer software for creative tele-video interactions. The environment can be used to interact with others in the same digital window at a distance such as: presenting a Powerpoint together, broadcasting your own news, creating an animation, acting/dancing with any online video, overdub-commentary, teaching, creating a puppet show, storytelling, social TV viewing, and exercising. The system tracks gestures and objects in the local environment and maps them to virtual objects and characters. It allows users to creatively bridge physical and digital meeting spaces by defining their own mappings.
Text Editor for Augmented Writing
Pattie Maes and Cassandra XiaWe study augmentation of the creative writing process through a new text editor. This text editor presents short-length snippets from books and Internet sources such as blogs and Twitter in the moment of the writing process. The snippets are selected in such a way as to be relevant to the content that the user is trying to produce. This text editor explores a number of ideas including: Is it possible to augment creativity by introducing just-in-time information? Is it more efficient to consume content in the moment of creation? Is it possible to develop a notion of "books" that do not have to be consumed in a serial process?
Pattie Maes and Seth HunterVisionPlay is a framework to support the development of augmented play experiences for children. We are interested in exploring mixed reality applications enabled by web cameras, computer vision techniques, and animations that are more socially oriented and physically engaging. These include using physical toys to control digital characters, augmenting physical play environments with projection, and merging representations of the physical world with virtual play spaces.
