Pimp up your camera with Arduino timelapse video tutorial – auch auf Deutsch Zoe Romano — May 25th, 2013 Last month we launched the first of a series of tutorials hosted on our Youtube Channel and created by Max of MaxTechTV in german language. Today we are publishing the second video called “Pimp-up your camera with an Arduino timelapse“. The video explains how to connect an Arduino UNO with you camera and shoot pictures, for example, every 1, 5, 10 seconds to create wonderful videos of slow processes that would normally appear subtle to the human eye.

Predator takes visual object tracking to new heights – Computer Chips & Hardware Technology
Cameras have slowly made their way into the portable gadgets we all carry around with us and not having a camera in a new device is viewed as a missing feature. It’s got to the point now where the latest smartphones even have two cameras so as to make for better video chat. But while the prevalence and quality of the cameras has gone up, the software still lags behind in terms of being able to identify and track objects in any real-time or captured footage. That is about to change due to the work of Czech student Zdeneki Kalai. This algorithm not only tracks, it learns the more it gets used. Kalai believes what he has created, a combination of tracking, learning, and detection is completely unique and allows for a whole new set of functionality to be applied when looking at video feeds. In the video he gives examples of a new interface that can detect your fingers and use them to draw, learning to get better at trakcing those fingers as it is used more. Read more at GottaBeMobile
Neurology of Gaming, Infographic « All Kinds of Minds
As with most things, “gaming” (or being engaged in video games) has both positives and negatives when it comes to developing minds. Too much gaming, and the positive effects are overshadowed by the negative. Yet, the right balance can add another avenue for pursuing educational goals and achievement. As a result, more and more programs are using gaming to reach and teach students in ways they never could before. Therapy programs, schools, and even research scientists have all benefitted from the strategic use of games to increase successes. Below is an infographic from Online Universities looking at the brain on games. Image: Online University Like this: Like Loading...

Games and Game Design with BrainPOP
The Global Education Conference is pleased to announce a new partnership with BrainPOP®, a leading creator of animated, curricular content, to develop a new gaming strand for the 2012 Global Education Conference. In addition to general session strands for teachers and students on curriculum, policy, and leadership, we are now seeking proposals for the new strand’s game-based learning sessions. The third annual Global Education Conference is an online international education extravaganza, slated to take place November 12-17, 2012. BrainPOP will be lending its expertise and support to the conference by curating the new gaming strand.
