Article: "Scientists Uncover Motion in Video
By: Erik Olsen
The article is about a video of a baby, the video shows how the baby's face blinks crimson with each tiny heartbeat. The process of amplification is called "Eulerian Video Magnification". The program was originally developed to monitor neonatal babies without making physical contact. Then scientist learned that algorithms could be applied to videos to reveal changes. According to an professor by amplifying small motions you can find out many things. The system focuses on specific pixels in video over course of time. The program was presented last summer at the annual computer graphics conference ( siggraph). Since the presentation the M.I.T. improved the algorithm. The scientist said there was availability of uses for the program from health care to lie detection in law enforcement.
What the article is informing the reader is on how this new advanced technology works. The program from the article was able to show the change in the baby's face. The scientist found that the algorithms could be applied to reveal changes. Maybe they will be able to use this program to show changes in other things. It could end up being helpful for many other people. Also this program could help us maybe discover something we never knew was there.Even tough the program was developed for another reason it still turned out more helpful than thought. Instead of having only one use for a specific thing we may be able to use it for various other occasions
Overall the Program with the process of amplification( Eulerian Video Magnification ) turned out to make a great discovery for us. Even though it was not intended for the Program to be able to do this it is very helpful that it can because it will help us improve many situations.
