Researchers have shown that smartphone cameras are capable of detecting blood oxygen saturation levels down to 70%, which is the lowest value that dedicated pulse oximeters should be able to measure as recommended by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
Researchers at the University of Washington have developed a new deep learning method that essentially creates high-quality cinemagraphs automatically. The team says the method can animate any flowing material, including water, smoke, fire, and clouds.
Researchers from the University of Washington have developed a way to use smartphone photos to identify potentially harmful bacteria on skin and in the mouth. The method can visually identify microbes on the skin that contribute to acne as well as those that cause gingivitis and dental plaques.
A team of researchers at the University of Washington have created something they're calling "a GoPro for beetles." In reality, it's a tiny, smartphone controlled camera backpack that can ride aboard an insect, giving us a beetle's-eye view of the world.
Researchers have created an AI that can animate a human subject from a single still photograph, "bringing them to life" by making them walk, run, sit, or jump out of a photo in 3D.
A computer vision researcher at the University of Washington has developed a face-swapping image search engine that will automatically insert the face from an uploaded photo into any search term at all. No photo editing skills of any kind required.
Memory card full? Just pull out some DNA storage and keep shooting. Scientists have figured out how to store digital photos in DNA and then perfectly retrieve them afterward.
Researchers at the University of Washington have figure out how to create 3D time-lapse video sequences of landmarks by using a collection of still photos found on the Internet. The 7-minute video above is a short presentation that shows the technology in action.
Time-lapses are usually created with one or more cameras by one or more photographers working together to document a particular subject, but now scientists have created a new method of time-lapse creation that uses photographs found on the Internet.
Biomedical researchers at the University of Washington have created what they claim to be the world’s fastest 2D ‘receive-only’ camera. Just how fast exactly? Up to 100 billion frames per second with the help of a technological process called Compressed Ultrafast Photography.
This allows the scientists to SEE laser light moving... actually watch it move... think about that for a second (or 100 billion frames).
In crazy-bordering-on-creepy-but-also-super-fascinating news, researchers at the University of Washington have found a new technique to simulate the aging process of human faces over the course of almost eight decades ... using nothing more than a single photo.
Here’s the current state of imagery: still cameras can shoot HD video, video cameras can capture high quality stills, …
