IPEVO USB Document Cameras And Evernote - 0 views

  •  
    There are a number of ways IPEVO and Evernote can help both teachers and students be more successful in and out of the classroom. Teachers can use the document camera to project a lesson, then easily save their lesson sheet to a Shared Notebook in Evernote so students can access the material at home or later in the year. For students, the document camera makes collaborating easier; groups can project a document to easily work on it together, then save completed work to a Shared Notebook to submit to the teacher or to share their work with the rest of the class. Together with Evernote, the IPEVO document camera can also help students create and maintain a digital portfolio. Students can capture projects, papers, and artwork using their IPEVO document camera and seamlessly save these artifacts to Evernote.

Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom is Half-Camera, Half-Smartphone - 0 views

  •  
    It's official: Samsung has announced the Galaxy S4 Zoom, the most powerful smartphone-camera hybrid on the market today. Check out its front side, and you'll see a device very similar to a Galaxy S4 Mini. It has a 4.3-inch qHD display, a 1.5GHz dual-core processor, 1.5GB of RAM, 8GB of storage memory (expandable via microSD cards, and a 1.9-megapixel camera. On the back, it's a full-fledged camera, with a 16-megapixel sensor and 10x optical zoom, which is far better than on any other smartphone or smartphone-camera hybrid we've seen.

Verizon Lists The Samsung Galaxy Camera For $549 - 0 views

  •  
    To add the Galaxy Camera to a Share Everything Plan, you can even upgrade for a special price of $5. AT&T recently started carrying the device for $499 in November. The camera has a 16-megapixel CMOS sensor with 21x zoom. But when you flip that bad boy over, you won't see a little 2-inch LCD. Instead, you'll be met with the familiar Android homescreen (Jelly Bean, no less), on a 4.8-inch 720p SLCD display.

Every Communicator Needs a Real Camera - 0 views

  •  
    "Perhaps the easiest visual medium for most communicators to grasp and use is photography. There is a growing school of thought that with an iPhone or Nexus smartphone, a communicator is well equipped to meet the needs of the visual thirsty stakeholder. Don't kid yourself. Every communicator needs a real camera."

Is Google Glass Useful in the Operating Room? - 1 views

  •  
    "The target for this test was to see if the video footage that is being delivered adds to the cameras that are already in the operative theatre. Due to the fact that one can almost literally look through the eyes of the surgeon, medical students and colleagues can view the same perspective, instead of the fixed camera points or to watch over the shoulder of the surgeon.

Project Glass is not enough. Google patents smart glove to make your Minority Report VR... - 0 views

  •  
    "The Google Glove is filled choke full with electronics. These include cameras on the fingertips, compass, gyroscopes, accelerometers and other motion detectors on the fingers, CPU, a bunch of RAM and storage in the palm of your hand, and (wireless) communication chips on the back. Maybe even a small battery band around your wrist."

Twitter announces Vine for Android, available today - 0 views

  •  
    "Twitter announced on Monday that its long-awaited Vine app for Android smartphones will soon be available. Vine requires Android 4.0 or higher, and though many features from the iOS app are currently missing, Twitter says that the Android version will soon have all of the features currently available on iOS. Things such as front-facing camera support, search, mentions and hashtags, and even Facebook sharing are planned to arrive in the coming weeks. But Android users are getting one unique feature that's not available for iOS: zoom. Twitter also alluded to future features that "can only exist on the Android platform.""

This is How You Should Crop a Portrait - 0 views

  •  
    "If you're looking to get into portraiture then you'll learn very quickly that sometimes a photo should be cropped in order to make it better. It's a skill that many photo editors learn quickly. Digital Camera World just released this awesome infographic on how to crop a portrait. It covers a basic fundamental that I was taught in photo school: Don't crop at a joint-ever! always crop a little bit above or below it."

Metacognition and Student Learning - 0 views

  •  
    "What makes so many of those atrocious singers laughable to us-excepting the ones who put on deliberately bad performances in order to get on camera-turns out to be a problem that plagues many undergraduates, especially the weakest among them: an inability to judge accurately their own level of skill or knowledge in a specific area. Poor metacognition means that some terrible yet hopeful singers on American Idol are unable to assess their own weak vocal talents. And it means that some students have a mistaken sense of confidence in the depth of their learning."

Lytro's Magical DSLR-Like Camera Lets You Refocus Photos After You Take Them | Gadget L... - 1 views

  •  
    "With the Illum, Lytro is targeting a more specialized market. In addition to the 8X (30 - 250mm) zoom lens, it has a constant f/2.0 aperture, 1/4000 shutter, and a four-inch backside touchscreen display. According to the company, the new sensor can capture 40 million light rays (Lytro doesn't list megapixels) to the original's 11 million. Its desktop processing software works with traditional products, like Adobe's Photoshop and Lightroom. Photographers can use the camera's software to refocus pictures after the fact, generate 3-D images, adjust the depth of field, and create tilt shifts. It will be available in July for $1,500."

How to Shoot, Edit & Publish Videos From Your Android Phone - 0 views

  •  
    "Dedicated point-and-shoot digital cameras and lower-end camcorders are surely facing a slow road to extinction, with many modern phones capable of shooting ridiculously high-quality photos and videos. But can your phone really do it all, from start to finish, without connecting up to your PC? Well of course it can."

Google's new Visual Positioning System takes learning, navigation to new levels - 0 views

  •  
    "The practical use is simple, even if the underlying technology isn't. Users can walk into a store and point their phone's camera in front of them. After identifying what it is you're looking for, VPS will kick in, using visual data and previous sessions to point you in the right direction. Google showed it off in a hardware store, but it's not hard to imagine how the technology could be extended to malls, large stadiums, theme parks, or museums."
