Professor Karl Deisseroth and his team at Stanford University managed by a new method to make a whole brain transparent, so you can see every detail of using an optical microscope. The technique, called CLARITY, allows the creation of three-dimensional images like those you see in videos. Here the group uses to analyze the brain 7chronoy a boy with autism.

Dynamic mapped display A group of students in Ishikawa Watanabe laboratory at the University of Tokyo, working on augmented reality functions and a program for viewing patterns on moving surfaces. This dynamically mapped display functions through a system which detects the surface with an infrared ray grid speed 1000 fps. The projected image is calculated directly again to match the object moves, and gives the illusion that the display is integrated in the moving object.
Computational thermoforming The Christian Schüller presents us with the computational technique thermoforming, with which a laminate can easily get the color and texture of any three-dimensional shape. The software simulates the process of shaping and converts a three-dimensional image to the dimensions needed for the mold. Then the image is transferred onto a sheet of plastic. During thermoforming, the sheet is deformed to create an exact copy of the digital model.
Diabolo with 3D views The Japanese Yusaku Mochizuki, Member of the enra artists group, It gives an impressive performance with a diabolo in sync with images from 3D screenings.
The design of three-dimensional objects to a new level Scientists at Tel Aviv University in Israel and the Tsinghua University of Beijing took the cut-paste in the third dimension. With just a few mouse clicks, '3-Sweep' software can extract a 2D object from a photo and convert it to 3D.
Change photos with artificial intelligence Photo editing has reached a new level. Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Computer Science, of the Sarbrucken Research Center, of MIT, of the University of Pennsylvania and Google, developed an image processing method using GAN (Productive contrastive network) which allows us to control almost everything in an image. You put two points and move the objects in the photo in 3D space.
Deepfake from a single photo Researchers from Samsung's labs have developed a way to create high-resolution deepfakes, from a photo or even a painting. It's called MegaPortraits, and the team says it solved a particularly difficult problem when displaying its image "driver" is quite different from the source animation. For example, an effective Angelina Jolie deepfake is much more difficult to handle, when he is a man with short hair.
Paint with hydrographic printing The technique of painting objects with hydrographic printing: PVOH film printed with the image of the artwork to be transferred, and then placed on the surface of a water tank. A chemical is sprayed onto the membrane to help weld, and then the object sinks into the tank until the film to bind on it.
Two neurons join together This is a video taken by neuroscientist Lila Landowski in a laboratory culture vessel under the microscope. Two neurons like the ones we have in the brain and throughout our body, looking to connect to other neurons in space. Eventually they unite with each other. The video has been accelerated - this development occurred in the space of 20 minutes.
Artificial arm lifts a dumbbell Developed by the Polish robotics team Automaton Robotics, This human-like mechanical arm is capable of lifting a 7 kg dumbbell. This 1 kg synthetic member is electric and uses hydraulics and various sensors to move the joints.
An artificial kidney has been successfully tested The project "Kidney Project" funded by the United States Agency for International Development, made an artificial kidney that works with the blood pressure and does not require special drugs at the University of California. The artificial kidney consists of a silicon blood filter that removes toxins from the blood and a bioreactor with real human kidney cells..
When a band celebrates for you In a neighborhood in the United States, a young boy playing basketball at home when a philharmonic band crossed the street. The group of musicians in the back of a truck, started by encouraging him and then they played a musical march when he hit the basket.
Everyone needs a # 50 on their team A little boy with cerebral palsy receives help from a teammate to hit a basket.
A technology for real holograms In 2019 at the InteractLab research center at the University of Sussex, Researchers have developed a hologram that uses a polystyrene bead, which is suspended by means of an array of speakers emitting ultrasound. The bead is illuminated with an LED light projection, and moves so fast that it creates images.
The Stanford experiment The Stanford Prison Experiment was an experiment in the psychological effects of turning a person into a prisoner or jailer.. The experiment was conducted in 1971 by the research group of Professor of Psychology Philip Zimbardo of Stanford University. The movie "The experiment" 2001 is based on this experiment.
A department store opens during a pandemic in Brazil Crazy pictures taken in a department store in Brazil, as more than 150 deaths from Covid-19 in the country.000. Only the US has more recorded deaths from coronavirus, according to data from Johns Hopkins University. The video was taken at the Havan department store and shared on Twitter by a journalist, shows hundreds of people huddled in the department store in the city of Belem.
