  1. A similar video to the dashcam video but with electric toothbrushes. Main players in the field are Braun OralB and Philips Sonicare. Apparently both of them have a lot of different options from a lot of different price points and APPARENTLY everything but the very cheapest versions USE THE SAME MOTOR. So the 50$ brush has the same internals as the 300$ for the most part. In addition they have some ridiculous stuff like bluetooth, useless brushing modes and other stuff like that to differentiate them from the cheaper models. Possibly the 300$ models use the same motor but run a little more power through them. I think a lot of people really could use a video where all the lineups are disected. I want the best for my teeth so I will buy the expensive one if it has any actual benefit, but I don't want to pay 300$ for something that is essencially the same as a 50$ one. My dentist told me about the OralB lineup using same motors. Also seen others say the same. After that I looked into the Philips Sonicare models which almost all advertise "62 000 strokes per minute" which sounds very suspect and indicates them using the same motor too. P.S. Some companies rebrand some generic chinese 10$ sonic toothbrush copies of the Philips Sonicare and sell it to gullable people with a subscription for replacement heads. Maybe including something like that could be nice. Here's one that a company in Finland is selling at least: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/IPX7-Waterproof-FoodGrade-smart-sonic-Electric_60785862305.html?spm=a2700.7724857.0.0.412a41d3h7zMK1 (A company sells that under their own name for a subscription that costs a lot over time. They claim the RRP is 170$ :D. I found the replacements heads cost about 1,00 - 1,50$ but they sell them 12.50$ with the subscription (and that's the sale price). For refrence the probably higher quality original non copy Sonicare replacement heads can be found for 4$ retail and are rated to last 3 months instead of the 2 months the copies are rated for. Thanks!
  2. I always thought projectors were great because of the possibility for a large size picture and had a plan to have one in my room for a empty wall. Then that plan changed into buying a clothes wall mount rack instead after realising that I don't have enough money for a projector. That plan might just about change back with a good amount of luckl. Also I took a look the features and specs and it looks pretty solid, seems like LG made a pretty solid projector. - Larry
  3. I'm presuming that that's just the maximum speed it can go. 4K quality at 60fps would be something way more reasonable. There really isn't anything to even show something as stupidly huge as 40K footage, especially at like 150fps Also it's only meant for like really big studios with top of the line equipment.
  4. It's for movie studios and stuff like that. Here's an example of the size of the cameras on a high budjet TV talkshow. The cameras tend to be pretty big, I don't think the size of the camera is an issue in a studio environment, especially when using this you free up a lot of space because of the lack of greenscreen and backgrounds like that. Usually the studios are really roomy too. And what comes to the 300GB/s that's just the very maximum if you record like 40K footage in 60FPS or what ever the highest settings are. Also storage sounds expensive to an individual consumer, the price of storage isn't that much for a big studio. But yes it's going to take at least couple years for minimum untill we see this camra techonolgy using it's potential. (They've also talked about cloud based storage tied with this.)
  5. Yeah same here Could be possible that they would sell the patent to some big camera maker like Canon, but I think that Lytro might be a bit too big to throw away the patent for money. They're not some small development company trying to come up with an idea to sell, at least I don't think so, and if they were, they're probably a little past that. You know about the Illum consumer camera they made before this?
  6. Yes, it really seems like the only thing you'll be setting in stone when you shoot is the vague direction you're shooting in Well not quite, still couple other things you need to take into account, but maybe in the future Them making the development open source would be amazing for the movie camera industry and really speed up the development But that's just wishful thinking
  7. Lytro Cinema is basically a camera that allows more post-production editing by capturing the scene in layers based on the distance of the camera. This allows the user to delete for example a background without touching what ever is in front of the background closer to the camera. This effectively eliminates the need for a greenscreen. The way the camera works is that it creates a 3D space of the recorded area, and that also allows movement of the camera after it was shot increasing the stabilzation opportunities as post-processing effects. The camera also focuses on all depth surfaces, allowing the user to choose the focus point after shooting to create the depth of field effect digitally, or just to leave everything in the shot focused. Camera also allows you to change the framerate of an individual asset in the scene. The CEO of Lytro, Jason Rosenthal, has confirmed in a recent blogpost that Lytro will be moving away from the consumer grade cameras, and focusing on VR and more professional part of the field. Reasoning behind this is the lowered interest in consumer grade cameras with the widespread of phones and their cameras and the better opportunities in the professional field. Lytro Cinema prototype shown at NAB 2016 Links to soruces/articles: Lytro Cinema Lytro Blog TechCruch DPreview Article 11th of April DPreview Article 20th of April (NAB 2016) PetaPixel Camera known specifications: 755 RAW Megapixels Up to 300 fps (I presume by lowering the quality) Claimed to have a 40K resolution and 400GB write per second Up to 16 stops of Dynamic Range Intergrated High Res Active Scanning Systems My thoughts: I personally think that Lytro is onto something here. If this model isn't what sets the standard for big movie studios, the one that does set the standard will certainly be using this techonoly. At least we're headed in a new and interesting direction, and I myself am really interested to see where this direction leads.
