Tiny vibrations bring still photos to life in dynamic interactive images

Aug 4, 2016 by John Aldred 2 Comments

A photograph is, by its very nature, a still image. Good ones perform their task very well. As technology has evolved the lines between photo and video have started to become a little blurred. We’ve got live photos, Instagram supports video, and now wants to be SnapChat.

Then we have augmented reality. The combination of computer generated data and real world imagery in real time.

The big problem with augmented reality is that the two don’t really mix together too fluidly yet. MIT PhD student Abe Davis has figured out a possible way to solve this problem. It’s a process he calls Interactive Dynamic Video. It uses tiny vibrations picked up in video to simulate real world movement in still images.

Apparently capturing Pokemons while second shooting is a thing now

If you’re living in the this earth you know that capturing Pokemons with the pokemon go app is sucking out everyone’s time. People have been capturing pokemons in parks, museums, just on the street and actually everywhere…. you will not hear me complain to anything that get folks out off the couch and on to the streets (despite the occasional found body), but is capturing pokemons always a good thing?

Videographer ‎James Riley just shared the above photo in Facebook along with the caption: “Came up to check on my second shooter and found him like this! Haha :)“.
