Auto news on Youtube Feb 2 2018

okay this is super weird because I can't see, you guys... but hello YouTube!

I'm Kurtis Baute and this is the Scope of Science and I just built

I built a digital camera. Okay wait a second, we're gonna start from the very

beginning. You see, this isn't really a video about the camera that I built but

it's about how I built it. People often ask how the eye, in all its complexity,

could have possibly evolved, and I actually think it's a great example of

evolution. Now since the eye is actually a lot like

camera - well the camera is a lot like an eye - I've decided to evolve a digital

camera, one step at a time, so that at each step it still worked. So this is

that process. I start by making something that can sense light it's a photocell

and I'm going to make mine using a copper penny.

You see metals like copper give off electrons when they're exposed to light

and by adding some heat and some saltwater to a plate of copper I can

actually make that effect big enough that I can measure it. Animals also see

light by using chemistry and electrical charges just instead of copper its

proteins and instead of wires it's neurons. Now I can take the number value

that I get and represent it as a degree of brightness a lower number is darker

and a higher number is brighter. Now to make a camera I'm gonna need a lot of

these but since I don't have 2.8 billion years to evolve the camera (and that's

how long it took for life to evolve vision) I'm just gonna take a couple

short cuts and I'm gonna order a bunch off of Amazon. This photocell is more

compact than my penny but if I connect it to my Arduino brain-computer thing I

can use it in pretty much the same way. If I put a bunch of these photocells

together I get a sensor and now I can measure light even better and now I can

finally start to tell if maybe there's a predator swimming above me and if it's

casting a shadow onto me. That's really important information to have! This is

what life might look like for a Hydra: they can see light and dark but that's

about it. Now I'm going to build a wall up around my sensors so that light

entering one side casts a shadow on some of my photo cells. If light enters from

the left side of my sensor it casts light on the right side, if it enters

from the top it casts light on the bottom. I can now use my camera to sense

directionality it can see if light is coming from over there or if there is a

predator coming at me from behind this is what life might look like for

flatworms their eyes are just little sensors in a cup the bigger this wall

gets the smaller the hole becomes and the more directionality I can see

eventually I can close that hole almost all the way until it's just a pinhole - we

call that a pinhole camera. And it's not very sensitive so I need to use a lot of

really bright lights so that it can receive an image and since I'm using so

many bright lights I have to wear these glasses to protect my eyes because it's

blinding otherwise so I can't really see you guys. But I built this digital camera

using 16 photo cells and a pinhole box and the image you see from it is

currently in black and white and it's just 16 pixels so it's pretty extremely

low resolution but hopefully you can make out my selfie. Hi! And the image you

see from it is upside down and backwards because of how light goes through this

hole in the front of this camera. The image is upside down and backwards

because, remember if light enters from the left side it shows up on the right

and if it enters from the top it shows up on the bottom. I can use computer

software to rotate and flip that image. In life that software is stored in

brains. It would be good if we had a colour image and we can do that with a

little grade school math and physics. All of the light we see is

made of just three primary colours: red, green, and blue. Mix them together and you

get purple, or well, I mean, you get the idea. If we specialize our photocells so

that each one only detects one colour; say we cover it with a red filter so that

only red light gets onto that one... we can see how much red is in the image, or how

much blue is in the image, or how much green, too. The thing is that each

photocell needs a value for each colour purple is lots of red, lots of blue, but no green.

But we can use the power of averages for this this photo cell senses red and it

uses its neighbour to figure out how much green and blue is nearby. Computing that

we get: purple. our eyes actually work like this,

they have three photo cells called rods ones four red ones four green and one is

for blue. Now my camera it can see colour so let's take a look out my window it's

a little pixelated but... I mean okay, it's it's really... it's really pixelated. After

spending a lot of hours trying to upgrade my camera from sixteen pixels to

81 pixels... after all that, finally...

I gave up when I

realized that this was the best possible image I could get from an 81 pixel

camera in the best-case scenario. And yes it's cool but it's just not good enough

because I want to show you how lenses work and I can't do that with this level

of resolution. So, I just upgraded from 16 pixels to over 2 million pixels using

one of the camera bodies that I already owned, and this is the image you get with

that and it's blurry because I still haven't added a lens to it. This is still

just a pinhole camera it's a piece of cardboard with a pinhole in it so the

light goes directly onto the sensor. This is the world through the pinhole eyes of

the Nautilus: it's dark and blurry, but there are images and colour. For the next

step we're going to add a very simple lens... Behold!

The water droplet. Yes, just a single droplet of water can act as a magnifying

glass, and this is something that you can try at your own risk on your smartphone.

It will act as a macro lens making very tiny things very large to your sensor so

that you can zoom into tiny little things like the Canadian flag on the

sleeve of the astronaut on the five-dollar Canadian bill. Lots of snails

have simple lens eyes like this. Now that lens is still pretty crude so

we're gonna bring it up to the next level. This crazy-looking image that's

kind of blown out on the sides is what you get if you just use a magnifying

glass in front of the pinhole. It's better than nothing but it's still kind

of distorted on the outside, but hopefully this gives you an idea of the

focus that a piece of glass or our droplet of water can give you in making

an image. I finally look like a real person! Okay, a weird person but I thats

how I normally am. Now there are more tweaks you could do in evolving a camera,

like being able to change the size of the pinhole, or change the distance

between the pinhole and the lens. All of those things can change and improve the

image that you get but I think by now you should get the idea of how a camera

works and how a camera or an eye could evolve. Something really cool happened

while I was working on this project but before I get into that if you feel like

you've learned something so far please consider subscribing to this channel

you'll SEE the button for it below... if bad puns don't make you subscribe what

will!? ok.. ok. So while this project evolved the code that I was writing got messier

and messier because I kept adding new code but since it usually wasn't worth

my time to delete the old code that I was no longer using it kind of just

became clutter and just built up. Now, what's awesome about that is that that's

what actually happens in evolution. Most of our DNA doesn't actually do anything

anymore - it used to, but it no longer has a function, and it just kind of stuck

around. Scientists call it 'junk DNA' and it makes up most

our DNA! Evolution doesn't solve things in the best possible way, it just solves

things using whatever way is good enough. That's why our eyes have a blind spot.

You see, the photocells in our eyes are actually pointing the wrong way they're

pointing away from light so there's actually a bundle of nerves where there

should be photocells if you want to find your blind spot, I left instructions

in a link in the description. If you liked this video you can like this video

and if you want to learn more about how evolution works I recommend the book The

Selfish Gene by Richard Dawkins. It's actually the reason that I started to

take science classes in the first place. The 40th anniversary of the book just

came out and I can tell you it stands the test of time, it is a true classic.

You can buy that book using the link in the description and that link will also

help support this channel the Scope of Science. I also put some links to the

camera gear that I use to film the camera that I made it was meta, right?

Anyways thanks so much for watching!

Hampton City Schools - The Digital Bridge - January 30, 2017 - Duration: 3:49.

(upbeat techno music)

- Hello, and welcome to The Digital Bridge.

I'm Paul Lawrence, Director of Information Literacy

for Hampton City Schools, and today we're at

Hampton's Science Magnet School, Cooper Elementary.

In Miss Kimball's tech lab, we have

some kindergarten students who are about to get busy

with some Bee-Bots.

- [Rose Kimball] What is it everybody?

- [Students] Algorithm.

- An algorithm.

Remember an algorithm is our set of directions

when we put them together.

Today the students were using their Bee-Bots,

and it was to finish up their coding unit.

We began with the internet, and we started with

an Hour of Code program called Kodable.

And the students had to start with a little fuzzball,

and they had to go around and collect little stars.

So those students were working on directions,

forward, back, right, and left.

Once the students were able to start coding

with the program efficiently,

then we went ahead and took content

from their classroom that they were working on

and developed little mats for them

to continue working on with that.

- I was coding.

Tellin' a robot what to do or a computer.

It's fun.

- What we tell the students is coding means

to tell a program or a device what to do.

In order to code, you develop algorithms or directions

to make the device do what you're telling it to do.

- Computers have fun things to do.

We played with the Bee-bots.

- [Interviewer] Okay, what's a Bee-bot?

- A Bee-bot's something you tell it directions what to do.

- All of the students are usually very engaged.

It's not only the coding aspect

but not knowingly they're doing the content as well.

So they're reading the sight words,

they're developing what's right, what's left.

Things that they already struggle with,

but things that they need to master in kindergarten.

- I telled my Bee-bot to go right, I think forward,

and then left, forward, forward.

There's a little game on the computers,

and we have a little person that's shaped like a ball

and he's super fuzzy and it's called,

the game's called Fuzzball,

and you get to tell the fuzzball what to do.

- [Interviewer] So are you good at that game?

- Yup.

- As they get older we usually use the

First of Google program, and they will use

a program called Scratch.

So they'll start developing their own programs

and making a sprite or a character do different things.

They might develop into their own game

or to use it to problem solve,

and they actually have to show the math problem

through each step.

It really turns into developing simple skills

throughout elementary school,

and then eventually they can do robotics.

I also started a Lego Club this year,

and they can partake in that in fourth and fifth grade.

- What was great about today's lesson was

not only are students developing the building blocks

of computer coding skills, but they're also mastering

some of the basic skills that they work on

in their everyday class.

Thank you for watching The Digital Bridge.

Our Digital Selves Official Teaser #3 [Drax Files Special coming 2018] - Duration: 2:57.

[MUSIC POOKY AMSTERDAM SINGS] I am too busy to date your avatar. I am a star!

I'm too busy to date your avatar, I'm a star. [MALE VOICE] And one of my favorite clients.

[MUSIC REED STEAMROLLER SINGS] Do you want to date her avatar? She's gone to far. And that's for sure...

My name is Second Life is Alumnia Autumn. My avatar it is me.

How I would look if I had a chance to create my own body once again.

There is the physical body that we can feel and there is the body that we have in our mind.

The thing that is in there that looks different.

I was diagnosed when I was 24. My parents have never ever heard of ADHD.

or that it can happen to girls.

It feels like you can barely walk, everybody else is running by you, sometimes people can

see me crawling but I'm so good at and so many other people with ADHD are good

at this that we can become very confident but we are still crawling like heck!

People had mental illness sometimes refer to it as invisible disability.

The nurse she asks well what do you do for a living and I yeah I say I'm on

disability and I just become very aware that a person might be looking at me and

saying hey she doesn't look disabled you know or she has bipolar disorder while

she's talking to me perfectly fine.

Hi Poppy. Hi. You think virtual worlds are strange?

What type of virtual world are we talking about here?

Well I'm talking about Second Life which is the only relevant universe

not sure if you're familiar with it...

Drax you really can't put that camera can you?

VARAHI: my epilepsy really carved with my personality

and I think being brought up to recognize that there are disabilities

and struggles in the world can actually be quite a good thing. My kids had to

grow up early. They are young carers

TREDI: people choose their avatar to represent the circumstance they're experiencing in

the virtual world. TOM: the way it's phrased over and over again is that disability

is part of who I am that it is not all of who I am.

PHILIP: I mean that is an interesting question for you Cody like what is your ideal avatar

CODY: well, me!

Because I am so cool with myself!

CECII: Because I am so cool with myself!

[LAUGHTER]

[MUSIC]

DRAX: if this is not mixed reality then I don't know what is...

TOM: I know!!!

Prepare a Flight Plan for Your Digital Marketing - Duration: 2:27.

So I'm flying here in this airplane…and you know what's interesting is when you have

to fly here, you have use a map, right?

So you can figure out where you're going. And it's really important.

So you've got to do all this, uh, like flight- planning stuff and you know, map out your routes;

make sure you know where you're gonna go, how you're gonna get there, make sure

you can avoid issues – you don't want to hit any towers or anything that may be out there.

You need to make sure you have all the right frequencies so that you communicate on the right channels…

You know what, I was thinking about it: it's very similar to digital marketing.

It's very similar to video and making sure that you have a strategy and a road map so

you can map out where you want to go, figure out how you're gonna get there, making sure

that you have the right vehicle and everything, so if you want to go–

––[radio interrupts]

––…so there's that. You know, so if you want to, like…

I dunno; you want to fly cross-country, you're not gonna take a little plane like this.

You know, if you want to go over to Seattle, it's gonna take you a little while.

I guess you could take something like this: like a jet, and get there a little bit faster.

It'd be a little bit more expensive, but if time is more important to you, then boom.

But you know– ––[radio interrupts]

–– Aw man, everybody's coming in at the exact same time.

That's gonna be fun. Alright. Let's see if we can beat 'em.

Anyways, what I was saying is, you know…you get up here and say, "I want to go over here,"

or "I want to go over there," and then you get up here and you realize,

"Oh, I didn't have the right tools. I really needed this type of plane,"

or, "we should have used a plane for that," or "it's going to take us longer

than we thought because we didn't think about it through."

That's exactly what it is like, uh, with marketing.

So it's really important to make sure you have a road map;

that's why we do these Road Map Sessions:

so that you can have the time to get out there and to plan before you get out

in the middle of the area and realize, "You know what? I made…

I made a really bad decision, and I didn't do this."

So…anyways, that's it. Newnan Traffic, Diamond 6-5-5 Delta Charlie,

left downwind for runway 1-4, Full Stop, Newnan Traffic. Jamie, I'm back!

–– He made it! –– [laughs]

so we can add them to the animation.

- Okay. - Okay?

Today we are in my house

and Sheira and I will work on the animations

to show while the girls dance.

We'll incorporate all the animations we created

and the music to put it in a iMovie

and to create a big video.

For how many seconds should we leave it on?

- I think it could be... Like 2.5?

- Point five? Uh-huh.

- Then... Have you done animations?

- Yes, I already did animations in Flash.

Something I had to learn

was to use Adobe Flash CS6.

That was... It took me about a year

trying to learn it

because it has many elements

that we can use.

We're going to use some frames

that will rotate and drop down,

while the girls dance.

We'll use it to create little frames.

Since they're different colors,

we can take the Spheros,

and make them the same color and program them,

but we have to talk to Marilyn y Nazaret first.

- So that... - So they can program them.

- What do you want to do first?

- These are the measurements for the stage

where the girls will dance.

We'll mark them on the floor.

- Today we have been programming the Spheros.

We were watching the video that we recorded,

trying to match the encoding to the music,

and trying to come up with ideas

on how to we wanted the Sphero to move.

We are making them change colors

using the Lightning Lab app.

We use it to make coding blocks

that we'll use to code the...the Sphero

and make it move.

We have to set the Heading and the Delay.

- Let's try it together.

- Yes, okay. First we'll calibrate the Spheros.

We're also making it change direction.

We want to coordinate it so it follows the dance moves.

- Is it ready?

- Yes. - One, two, three.

- Okay. We'll have to be careful

with that Sphero because it moved further away.

- The Spheros are not working perfectly.

We need to change a lot the frames coding

in the program.

- It wouldn't stop and went the other way.

So we need to add...

- One delay. - One delay.

- As I'm working with the Spheros,

I worry that one of the dancers may step on it

or... or not... or not... That it may lose control

and wont' be able to, uh, fix it during the dance.

- Nazaret, can you show me the video again?

I want to count how many times the dancers

move from side to side.

- In the beginning we wanted to make four Spheros,

but after seeing all the work needed

to make only two,

we decided to cut it down to two.

I feel kind of bad that we could make four,

but we'll do the best we can.

- Okay. Thank you.

- Hi. My name is Sheira.

I am 15 years old and this is my home.

These are my sisters Valeria and Julieta,

and we like to make crafts.

- We're making a flower,

but we're putting this on top of this.

And we'll... We can add whatever we want.

My favorite thing to do is reading.

I like this book

because it's about immigrants

and it has stories and tales

about immigrants that came to America.

I like to make memories of my friends,

so I take a lot of pictures of them.

I'm very happy to have gone to these events

about computer science,

because it shows I really like this.

I love to row.

It's my favorite sport.

This is candy from México.

When I grow up, I want to be an anthropologist,

and study the culture and the religions of Mexico.

I also like to take pictures.

[upbeat music]

Bye.

- How pretty!

- Today we are at the Museum of Moving Image,

and it'll be the first time we have

all the elements together, the Spheros,

the animation, the music, and the dancers,

presented all in the theater.

I am very nervous,

because I feel something is going to go wrong

o that maybe the tutus will turn off,

or the Spheros won't work.

Anything could go wrong and I'm very scared.

Turn it on when the music starts.

So, turn it on when you hear the music.

When the world drops down, they start dancing.

Okay? - Okay.

- Ready? - Yes.

- Sheira, can you play the music?

- Yes.

♪ ♪

- Yes, one...

Uh, your skirt didn't turn on either?

- Mine did. - Oh.

- Did yours turn on?

- No, it just came on just now.

- Okay.

- We're going to try again.

- Okay. - Ready?

- Uh-huh. - It wasn't perfect.

One of the skirts wouldn't light up.

The rest were okay,

but one Sphero didn't coordinate with the dance moves

and it went all over the place. It was a disaster.

- Where do I have to push?

- [laughs] - I can add more tape,

but it won't do anything.

- But not all of it lights up.

No.

[both laugh with frustration]

- We have to fix the programming of the Spheros

and fix the tutus, and it's... very difficult

because the program on the tutus is not working.

No matter what, they won't light up.

We're getting close and don't know what to do.

I am very scared

because I don't think the tutus will work.

- Oh, no! The... Did you turn it off?

Did you turn it off?

- Uh...

- We decided to add headbands

at the last minute,

and decided to make them

the same color as the skirts,

but we still haven't programmed those,

and the show is tomorrow.

Besides that, we want the headbands

to have flowers

and a lace matching the color.

We have to get all that done by tomorrow,

including all the coding.

- This one lights.

This one also lights.

But the only problem

on this one is... - The only problem?

- Sheira, the only problem?

- We still have to... - The show is tomorrow.

- Somebody can help me.

What do you guys need to do?

- We already finished the skirts.

- We're finished. We're waiting for you guys.

- Okay, but...

- Hi, girls. all: Hi, Andrea.

- How did it go with the dancers yesterday?

- We're only missing some details,

like the headbands,

and I just need to change the battery on this one.

- How do you know it's just the battery?

- Because it worked before and the battery just died.

- Remember that happened to us too.

- And you fixed it, right?

- Okay. - Yes, but it took awhile.

- Okay, then change the battery.

Let's see if it works.

One of these that...that... What's wrong with these?

- Okay. This one needs to be...

- Welded again.

- Yes, and we need a battery on this one.

- We only have two Spheros. - Okay.

- So we think we can fix two of them.

- I thinks so, if we all help her,

because they're only two,

and that's... It's easy, right? - Yes.

- It's like one... It's just one battery.

- Eh...

And that'll be it.

I think it can take us a few minutes.

Maybe not such short minutes,

but a few minutes, and we can fix it,

if we all contribute.

Tell us about your project.

- Basically, we had to create a digital dance,

which is a task given to us by our teacher Andrea.

And basically it's just a dance that involves technology

so we use like Spheros. We also use Arduinos,

and other stuff like that.

Protect Your Kids on Xbox Live from Predators - Digital Parenting Minute [Ep 18] - Duration: 1:46.

- Now, if you've already set up family accounts

in Windows 10, you have also gained the ability

to set up some rules about privacy on your Xbox.

Today we'll talk about how you can access those rules

and how you configure them.

So let's jump right in.

(energetic percussive music)

- [Instructor] Type family into the Cortana search bar.

From here, select the option

that says Allow family members to use this PC.

If you haven't added your children yet,

you can go back and review episode five

to see how to do that from this screen.

Select the option that says Manage family setting online.

This will open your browser to the Family Settings.

Under the child that you want to edit,

select the Xbox privacy options item.

This will launch you

into the Xbox Privacy & online safety settings screen.

From here, you can adjust any of the privacy settings.

You should spend time reviewing each option here

to determine what the value should be.

Some of these settings include items

like allowing video communication

and giving out your child's real name.

There are two additional pages included in this screen

that have settings you need to review.

The first is for Xbox One

and Windows 10 online safety settings.

In addition, there is another page

for Xbox 360 online safety settings.

Now, if you have an Xbox 360,

you'll need to review both of these screens.

These screens cover features like whether your child

can add friends and what they can purchase

from the Xbox Store.

With these settings, you can make sure

that you know what your child can and can't do

while using your Xbox console

if it's connected to your Microsoft account.

Centre for Digital Scholarship tools - Duration: 2:54.

The Centre for Digital Scholarship is a service that the library provides to

support work in the digital scholarship area -- both a physical space in and a

service area. Digital scholarship is using the newer technologies like text

analysis, data analysis, and GIS to give researchers an opportunity to display

data and interpretations in a different way than they have in the past. The space

is open to undergraduates, postgraduates -- across all disciplines, all faculties.

HDR's will want to see what's offered in the CDS because we do offer

training in a number of software areas like text analysis and

support in areas like GIS. I'm one of the Centre for Digital Scholarship support

officers. So we're a group with diverse roles and different interests and

expertise in a suite of different digital tools. We work with individual

students -- usually research students -- so HDR students, to help them with the different

things they're getting stuck with in terms of using

different software programs to utilise a different research method or to

analyse data. There's quite a diverse array of different

software programs too that can be quite specifically targeted to a particular

research objective. So my advice would be to have a good

discussion with your supervisor and work out what the objectives are and what

type of software programs they would suggest that you look at and then come and have

a chat with us and we can help you support your growth and learning

to use that particular software program. There is contact hours. There's always

somebody in the CDS between 11:00am and 2:00pm during the week so people can just

drop in if they have a query about a particular software program or a

problem they're having with a research method. If they've already had

discussions with their supervisor and they're clear about what they're not

understanding then we can help sometimes with those kind of queries. So what it

would involve would be sending an email to the CDS if you wanted to meet

outside of those hours and then somebody from the team would get in contact by

email -- probably the person who works closest with those particular types of

research methods or tools -- and then we just sit together and have a one-on-one and

we talk about what the problems are, try to nut through, and find a good solution.
