There is quite a bit of confusion when we talk (and hear) about resolution. Resolution is measured in pixel per inch, that is how many different points are in an inch. On a 4k television you have 3,840 points horizontally and 2,160 vertically. How many per inch? Well that depends …

9. Digital Realilty The cyberspace has become so pervasive in terms of usage and its access so seamless in every moment of our life that we are starting to lose the perception of a separation between the reality of atoms and the ones of bits. They are starting to merge …

Sony researchers were due to present a paper at CHI 2020,  scheduled at the end of April in Honolulu, Hawaii, but because of the epidemic the conference was cancelled.

In the previous post I pointed out that Digital Reality is becoming Reality not just for products but also for Systems, including complex systems like telecommunications networks. Here I point out that Digital Reality is becoming “Reality” also for processes. This is of particular interest, and significance, for the manufacturing …

An airplane engine (turbine) has its digital twin, creating a digital model in the cyberspace that can be used in many ways, including the provisioning of information via virtual and augmented reality to designers, maintenance crew, …

If we go back to industry, we see that more and more products are a mixture of hardware and software. Whilst in the past software was totally embedded, and in the end just a different sort of “material”, nowadays, more and more, software is decoupled from the hardware, it might …

OK, let me start by saying that I have been uncertain on writing this post as part of the Digital Reality series. Eventually, I decided to publish it for three reasons: VR in porn is a rapidly growing “reality” VR in porn is facing technological challenges that are so far …

Whilst humanity have long pursued the dream of eternal youth with basically no success so far (although the quest is as strong as ever!) movie makers have taken a few shortcuts to make actors look younger on the screen. So far the application of cosmetics (make up) have allowed the …
