Webcam good human eyes
While chatting on webcam don't you feel like that the person on other side is not looking you're your eyes but rather on the computer screen? Well Microsoft research lab in Cambridge University, England has developed a webcam which has 2 lens, just like human eyes, This enables the webcam to take 2 images of the same face from 2 different angle and the software converts it into 1. This makes chatting and video conference as real as looking into each other’s eyes, and you feel like the person is right in front of you in the same room.
The technology is called Stereo Algorithm, Essentially what is done here is replacing 2 human eyes with 2 lenses while replacing human brain with computer, it is that easy, this is the same technology which revolutionized the voice and audio from mono to stereo. This technology believed to be used by NASA, for its robots and rovers on another planet which sent the 3d image of the surrounding they were looking at and it as we all know how good those images looks from mars and other planets. So basically this is the same High-tech million dollar camera concept taken from expensive technology and make it smaller and affordable version for everyday consumer, not only just making it simple and cheap but also with included software it makes it easy to use. Software is capable of detecting color difference, depth and distance and the light perception to make the perfect 3d image.
Some other feathers also included with the software is, you don’t have to type the smiley symbols that you are happy or sad or laughing, the software provides the smiley faces on your computer and you choose the smiley as your mood which floats the smiley image all around your streaming video, makes it easier just to click on symbol rather than typing it.
