The spinoff Lucid Technologies is developing a program to enhance film images automatically

E-Mail
Lucid Technologies, a new UPF spinoff, is to bring to the audiovisual market computer products that will streamline the film postproduction process, automatically improving films aesthetic appearance. Thus, the company will exploit cutting-edge technologies protected by two international patents developed by the Image Processing for Enhanced Cinematography (IP4EC) research group of the UPF Department of Information and Communication Technologies (DTIC).
The company s first product is a computer program that will help film professionals to perform an essential task more quickly and easily in any post-production process of a film. This stage, called technical grade, consists of reviewing the entire recording and fixing whatever is necessary so that the images have a natural appearance to the audience s eyes in terms of lighting, colour and contrast. This process requires many hours of work by specialized professionals. ....

Overview:
Third-year doctoral student Toshiaki Takahashi, associate professor Kazuhiro Takahashi, and their research team from the Department of Electrical and Electronic Information Engineering at Toyohashi University of Technology developed a testing chip using semiconductor micro-machining that can detect volatile gasses in exhaled breath in ppm concentrations at room temperature. A polymer that expands and contracts when gas is absorbed is formed on a flexibly deformable nanosheet, and the amount of deformation that occurs when a target gas is absorbed is measured, allowing gas to be detected at high sensitivity. The testing chip, which is formed in the size of a few square millimeters with semiconductor micro-machining technology, is ....

Editor s Note: In the fifth graf, the number of African savannah elephants left in the wild was updated to 415,000.
For the first time, scientists have successfully used satellite cameras coupled with deep learning to count animals in complex geographical landscapes, taking conservationists an important step forward in monitoring populations of endangered species.
For this research, the satellites Worldview 3 and 4 used high-resolution imagery to capture African elephants moving through forests and grasslands. The automated system detected animals with the same accuracy as humans are able to achieve. ....

A new type of ultra-efficient, nano-thin material could advance self-powered electronics, wearable technologies and even deliver pacemakers powered by heart beats.
The flexible and printable piezoelectric material, which can convert mechanical pressure into electrical energy, has been developed by an Australian research team led by RMIT University.
It is 100,000 times thinner than a human hair and 800% more efficient than other piezoelectrics based on similar non-toxic materials. ....

Why is studying spin properties of one-dimensional quantum nanowires important?
Quantum nanowires-which have length but no width or height-provide a unique environment for the formation and detection of a quasiparticle known as a
Majorana zero mode.
A new UNSW-led study overcomes previous difficulty detecting the Majorana zero mode, and produces a significant improvement in device reproducibility.
Potential applications for Majorana zero modes include fault-resistant topological quantum computers, and topological superconductivity.

A Majorana fermion is a composite particle that is its own antiparticle. ....
