The AI with Web cameras and image recognition systems can turn any shiny object into a spy tool.

Modern computer technology is marvelous. Those AI-based simulations can calculate reflections from any surface and that means every object can turn into a spy tool. But when we are searching the net, use things like screenshots during net meetings, and then connect those screenshots with regular drawing programs like "Paint" we can use zoom and see things that the opponent might want to hide from us. 

The thing is that mirrors and many other things along with pixel software and image recognition tools make it possible to see things that people want to hide quite easily. The ability to connect AI-based image manipulation and image processing tools with physical systems like drones is a big threat to privacy.

The AI requires only similar objects that it sees from the camera. And then it can calculate reflections. Or the AI can create a virtual object that it can use as a simulation to make reflection sharper. 


"Researchers from MIT and Rice University have developed a computer vision system called ORCa (Objects as Radiance-Field Cameras), that uses AI to turn any shiny object into a camera by mapping reflections off its surface. Images of the object, taken from different angles, are used to convert the object’s surface into a virtual sensor that captures and maps reflections, thereby allowing depth estimation and offering novel perspectives. This technology can be particularly beneficial in autonomous vehicles, where reflections from surrounding objects can help see around obstructions.

The AI-based image processing systems make it possible to search. And find objects from innocent and legal images. The drone must not fly straight out of anybody's window. The AI searches for interesting things from low-resonation images. And then the AI will use re-pixel and other kinds of tools for zooming to some point in the digital image. So, before that system uses the virtual zooms the image is legal. 

Same way interesting things can see from images that are meant for publication. So even if the person thinks being safe one reflection can tell many things about the private life of the publisher. If one car is parked in the right position or wrong things like company names or some parking areas for busses are seen in the image, that kind of thing can uncover the person's location or even home address. Also, one wrong record that is downloaded on the net can tell the person's position. Face recognition software can search certain persons from public information like news. And that kinds of things can uncover a person's identity.

Plasmonic waves can make new waves in quantum technology.

"LSU researchers have made a significant discovery related to the fundamental properties and behavior of plasmonic waves, which can lead ot the development of more sensitive and robust quantum technologies. Credit: LSU" (ScitechDaily, Plasmonics Breakthrough Unleashes New Era of Quantum Technologies) Plasmonic waves in the quantum gas are the next-generation tools. The plasmonic wave is quite similar to radio waves. Or, rather say it, a combination of acoustic waves and electromagnetic waves. Quantum gas is an atom group. In those atom groups, temperature and pressure are extremely low.  The distance of atoms is long. And when an electromagnetic system can pump energy to those atoms. But the thing in quantum gas is that the atoms also make physical movements like soundwaves. It's possible. To create quantum gas using monoatomic ions like ionized noble gas. In those systems, positive (or negative) atoms push each other away.  When the box is filled with quantum gas and som...

What is the difference between TR-3A and TR-3B? And are those planes real?

What is the difference between TR-3A and TR-3B? And are those planes real? Is TR-3B (0) "Black Triangle UFO" or is it only the piece of paper?  The study project, what is used to create advanced ideas for use of the nuclear-powered aircraft. Or is it the study project or black budget aircraft, where lost 2,3 trillion dollars (1)of the stealth bomber were gone. In this text is things, that might seem very difficult to accept, and when we are thinking about things like doubling the object or making it smaller by using huge layers of energy, nothing denies to test those things. But were those tests successful, there is no data about that in public Internet, so we must say that things like doubling the human or aircraft can be tested, but the results can be unknown.  But in the source two is the tale, what seems like impossible, those men, who got Noble Prize put at first time one atom to the box, and hit it with photon one photon in the box and hit it with t...

The interesting coincidence between USS Sea Shadow (1982) and CSS Virginia (1862)

Image I The interesting coincidence between  USS Sea Shadow (1982) and CSS Virginia (1862) Far away from its time is the thing, that you might notice when you see those two images. The upper one (Image I) is portraying the modern naval USS Sea Shadow (IX-529)(1) experimental Stealth ship, which was created by Lockheed-Martin, and the image below (Image II) is portraying the CSS Virginia (2), the ironclad from the Civil War Era. The thing why the hull of the CSS Virginia, what is ironclad from 1862 is that the ammunition of the cannons would not transfer their impact energy to the hull of the ship. And the reason why Sea Shadows hull has this form is that it should point the radar echo away from the hull.  The thing that I must say that CSS Virginia is far ahead its time because that structure is effective against the explosive ammunition, and the slanting armor of tanks like T-34 and Sherman have made them effective. But for some reason, the use of slanting ...
