Automatic sports highlights
07/04/2004 03:47 PMResearchers have devised software that churns through sports video and
automatically grabs the highlights. A New Scientist article describes
several of these projects--from snooker analysis at Trinity College to
soccer game scanning at the University of Florence. Computer vision
problems are notoriously difficult, but, according to the article, "as
sports follow fixed rules, and take place in predictable locations,
computers ought to be able to pick out the key pieces of play and
string them together."

Last year in Lab Notes, I wrote about a similar project at UC
Berkeley. Computer scientists there are using soccer and ballet video
footage to demonstrate machine vision software that recognizes humans
and their activities.

That AK-47 Automatic Rifle? That's Just

That AK-47 Automatic Rifle? That's Just
My MP3 Player
02/10/2004 02:41 AMBy now we've seen all sorts of odd or confusing convergence products,
where people will try to add an MP3 player to a variety of different
products that don't necessarily make sense as an MP3 player. Here's
one, however, that goes a bit further than you might have predicted.
Apparently, a UK company is
selling the AK-MP3 - an MP3 player built into the ammunition clip
of a Kalashnikov automatic rifle. The company selling this is doing
so pretty much as a publicity stunt to sell the players loaded with
audio books they're pitching. Their website includes a
picture
which suggests that not only should you be wandering around
swinging your automatic rifle around while bopping to music coming out
of your headphones - you should do it in a camouflage bikini. The
rifle, the girl and the bikini are apparently not needed to use the
MP3 player. The folks behind the player point out that: "This is our
bit for world peace - hopefully, from now on many militants and
terrorists will use their AK-47s to listen to music and audio books."

04/19/2005 08:47 AM
A
Senegalese inventor is getting quite a bit of press for his automatic
condom fitting device that is being shown at the International
Exhibition of Inventions. The device is designed to help men slip on
prophylactics in one smooth motion—so fast that "with a bit of
practice the man's partner probably won't even notice that he had
reached over and used his trusty auto condom fitter."
The device is not commercialized at this time, but Mor Maty Seck
hopes to see it in production soon. I can't tell off hand if it's a
one-time use sort of thing or something that you'd just wear around
your neck on a chain. (Thanks, pt!)

Automatic feed unsubscibe
Automatic feed unsubscibe
09/16/2004 07:38 AMDave Winer asks
about automatic unsubscribing from a feed, and it's an interesting
question. If a feed is no longer updated, how should the publisher
tell aggregators to unsubscribe from it? I think the simplest
solution is for the server to return HTTP status code 410, as recommended here and here. An aggregator that receives a 410 for a specific found
should then automatically unsubscribe from it.
This will be supported in the next build of FeedDemon, and I
believe it's already supported by several other aggregators. In
FeedDemon's case, the user will be prompted to unsubscribe, since
automatically unsubscribing would remove the feed from FeedDemon's
cache - losing the user's history of that feed's postings. If the
user chooses not to unsubscribe, FeedDemon will turn off automatic
updating for that feed.

Unforuntately, my biggest criticism of PHP remains: all of the above is
supported using functions built in to the default namespace! The lack
of a smart namespace system (like Python's modules) really gets in the
way when you start trying to write reusable code or large
applications.
