Thanks for this link. Really cool use case, and maybe Niantic will check it out, if they haven't already.

#24Wow, more incredible image processing stuff from MIT. What's really cool is how it shows how much hidden information is out there there in world to be captured within a normal camera. We just need to be aware of it and analyze it properly. For me, it just re-injects a bit of wonder into the everyday world we live in.
Re: Interactive Dynamic Video
#25I wonder of you could use this on car commercials and thereby deduce the actual comparative quality of construction. Assuming that better built cars would vibrate less at speed. It would be interesting to understand where the vibrations occur.
A question for the authors. All the video is with vibrating but otherwise stationary objects. Must the object be stationary for these tools to work?

Jazzing up science seems to have more upside than not, as long as the quality and substance are maintained.

Please comment civilly and substantively on HN, or not at all.

Re: Interactive Dynamic Video
#29What exactly are the implications of this for construction engineering, which must already have some way of measuring vibrations? I.e. does this measure something previously unmeasurable, or is it just that the visualization provides an extra channel for interpreting the data? Or is it that it would make this kind of tool available to anyone with a digital camera?
It's kind of the last option.
This kind of analysis is already done and important, but usually it takes installing a lot of sensors and giving an impulse to the structure. I have actually worked on a company that did this, using strain gauges.
The fact that this is one using a commercial camera is kind of impressive. I'll take a look on the papers someday, but the obvious way to do this would be to have a framerate at least the double of the frequencies being measured.
Being able to determine frequencies much higher than sample rate not only is non-trivial, but also alleviates immensely the cost of these measurements.

Sarcastic whining, complaining about genuinely innovative research, missing the point, nitpicking, trying to make self seem more important by criticising everything.
Yup, Hacker News Commenter.
