Quote from the video:<br />
"For example, if you have a popular entertainer use this device and record it, that could be hugely popular if you offer it to fans."<br />
Indeed imagine just <a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.myspace.com/justinbieber" rel="myspace" title="Justin Bieber">Justin Bieber</a> using this and proposing to his female fans...<br />

<br />
If you are one of them, <a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.hankgreen.com/" rel="homepage" title="Hank Green">Hank Green</a> an inventor has a special pair of glasses for you.<br />
<br />
<a href="" name="more"></a> Mr Green hit upon the novel idea that one could easily convert 3-D video into 2-D by simply blocking light from one of the two overlapping images.<br />
<br />
When his wife confessed that she gets headaches when watching <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3-D_film" rel="wikipedia" title="3-D film">3D movies</a>, the happy-to-help Mr Green repurposed the <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereoscopy" rel="wikipedia" title="Stereoscopy">3D glasses</a> by swapping polarising filters and created the world’s first 2D glasses.<br />
<br />
Mr Green’ 2-D glasses look like 3-D glasses, only they have the same polarization in each lens, which effectively strips away the 3-D and leaves a 2-D image for you to enjoy without developing a headache. You can <a href="http://www.2d-glasses.com/">buy a pair</a> of these glasses for $8.<br />

<br />
<a href="" name="more"></a> In one demonstration, two microphones were placed on a dummy’s head who is made to sit in a conference table with several other people.<br />
<br />
The recorded sound from the two microphones were played back through two ordinary speakers - after processing them using Choueri's 3D filter - in another room where the listener is.<br />
<br />
The listener was able to correctly locate the position of each speaker.<br />
<br />

<br />
<span style="text-decoration: none;">Samsung, which will soon release a 1.2GHz dual-core version of its Galaxy S smartphone, is not resting on its laurels. The company promised we’d see a 2GHz Samsung smartphone by next year. Mashable cites a “high ranking Samsung official” who confirmed plans for a 2GHz mobile phone CPU during a conversation with the Maeli Business Newspaper.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="text-decoration: none;">"We are planning to release a 2GHz dual core CPU-equipped smartphone by next year. This product will have the data processing capacities of a regular PC," the official said.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="text-decoration: none;">Samsung is said to be considering selling the chips separately to third party manufacturers.</span><br />
Samsung's 1.2GHz Galaxy S2 is set for a May launch in the United Kingdom. The North American release for this device has yet to be announced.<br />

<br />
Users can control their entire computer through gazing, blinking or dwelling on an item with their eyes. <br />
<br />
Like an old-school webcam, the Tobi PCEye mounts on the bottom of an LCD panel and connects to the PC via a USB port. <br />
<br />
Although the company didn't get into the details on how the device actually works, Tobii said that its eye tracking technology can effectively track nearly every user (over 95-percent) regardless of eye color, lighting conditions, environments or head movement. Tobii also said that its track box (explained as the box defining the area/volume in which a person's eyes can be tracked) is one of the largest on the market.<br />
<br />
"The Tobii PCEye won’t slow down your computer, or restrict you from staying up to date with technology," the company said.<br />
