OK, so then I guess I should be looking for the 7950GT :)

Ok, I didn't know that, well then, I'm still interested in a 6800 or similar card. Thanks for the correction!

I'm looking for a good mid/high end AGP video card (I know, who still uses those...). I would prefer Nvidia card due to their CUDA support. I previously had an Nvidia 6800 that went bad and I was quite happy with that before it died. So I'm looking for something along the lines of an Nvidia...

Thanks, I really like that one as well. It just goes to show that it's always a good idea to have a camera with you at sunset.

Here are a few of mine:

If there are any invites left I would love to have one :) nullified (at) gmail.com

If anybody has a spare invite, it would be much appreciated :). Thanks in advance!

I happen to have worked in the commercial airplane industry and airplanes do pretty much fly themselves now. The pilot is there to make sure everything is working correctly and interfere in the event of an emergency or some unexpected condition. Especially once the airplane is at cruise...

But this isn't normal, is it? I don't remember seeing this earlier.

So I was using my MacBook Pro today and I noticed that the colors are not consistent along the bottom of the screen. So I make a white image and fullscreen it and this is what I see: What causes this? I know that's not supposed to be like that so I will be talking to Apple soon to see...

From what I've read multi-touch requires different hardware (it uses some Broadcom chip), and can not be done in software. Although I imagine there might be some software that can emulate some of it's capabilities.

I just ordered mine this morning, I'm pretty excited about that. I was going to buy one a week ago until I heard that they had an update coming, now I'm glad I waited. I can't wait for it to get here, this will be my first Mac :) I also ordered the black Speck case for it, does anybody have...

The deal's back!!! http://www.officemax.com/max/solutions/product/prodBlock.jsp?BV_UseBVCookie=no&prodBlockOID=1611616418&expansionOID=-536879891&cm_ven=Performics&cm_cat=**Slick%20Deals**&cm_pla=Primary&cm_ite=Primary&BV_UseBVCookie=no&affCode=PRF&siteID=k1971&mid=sduidp0t0 I'm ordering...

The first game I remember playing was Commander Keen, man that game was awesome... those crazy slugs...

There's some pictures of our plane on our website (www.aessuav.org or www.flickr.com/photos/aessuav/), we're using a Sig Kadet Senior (80 inch wingspan) for our aircraft. We are on a somewhat tight schedule, so I would prefer to buy a transmitter/receiver, although I think if we throw a decent...

Thanks for the help, here are the requirements: Weighs less than 5 lbs Range of 7 miles line of sight Physical dimensions less than 3x6x10 inches Voltage requirement <= 14.7V Max current comsumption of 2A Our goal is to be able to transmit the video back from the UAV over a distance...

Do you know of any video links that can have the kind of range that we need and are relatively cheap (<$700)? The only reason I wanted to use a datalink for the the video was that I was able to find a datalink that had the kind of range that we needed.

Pointing an antenna at the plane probably won't be an issue. The reason we decided not to have the image processing done on the UAV was because we could not find the perfect system to put on the plane, and by doing the image processing on the ground a lot of things are greatly simplified, and...

30fps may not be a requirement, but it would be nice, the reason I want a high frame rate is that the UAV will need to search a 2x2 mile grid in an hour and find a person, so the higher the frame rate, the faster the airplane can go. I spoke with the company that makes the Slingbox and they...

Sorry I forgot to mention 30FPS.

Hi, so my question is what kind of software can I use to run on Linux to stream 640x480 video feed if I only have 1 megabit of bandwidth. The reason I'm asking is because I'm working on a project to build a UAV, and we decided it would be best to stream video back from the plane and do image...

Well as far as the aircraft we already have that, it's an 80" wingspan Sig Kadet powered by a 0.70 OS four-stroke engine, and we also have an Aerospace Engineer working on the project and he's done the calculations for the airframe and the weight it should be able to carry, so I'm not too...

I guess whether or not it's "real-time" might not matter that much, as long as it's also sending the GPS coordinates along with the images, which it will be doing. But I'm pretty sure a satellite link would be prohibitively expensive, at least in our situation, I'm sure the military can afford...

Satellite would probably be quite expensive and could be rather slow due to the high latency. So radio waves would be the only feasible way that I could think of.

Somebody asked above how long it will need to run, the UAV will only need to fly 1 hour at a time, so 1 hour's worth of batteries should be feasible. I have considered doing the processing at the ground station, the only thing that was holding that back, was the fact that the video will...

That's pretty sweet, I didn't read the entire thing, but I'm not sure how fast they needed to process the images, we will be needing to process them at 30fps, I'd rather go for overkill than be underpowered. Thanks for all those links, I will definitely check those out. Our maximum...

I don't think the Gumstix would be able to provide the kind of processing power that we need. But thanks for the suggestion.

Thanks for the links, we are looking into other batteries with more capacity and less weight, but they will only need to last for 1.5 hours. It looks like we can have maximum dimensions of about 6"x10"x2.5"... EDIT: Ibase seems to have some really nice systems, I think what they have may work...

Hi everybody, I'm involved in a project to build an autonomous UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) to compete in a competition with the goal of locating a lost hiker in the Australian outback. We are looking for a small, light, and powerful system to do our image processing. I had previously...

For starters you could try windows movie maker, since it comes with windows. But if you want to go more advanced there's Adobe Premiere, which is probably one of the best editors out there, and I believe you can get a 30 day trial or something from Adobe's site, so you could give that a shot...

You wouldn't happen to be interested in trading the Zen Vision for a Nintendo DS Lite plus cash would you?

Well I didn't really make these pics in photoshop, but I took them, and then processed them in Photoshop if that counts :) And I would guess that the total time of processing them is well under an hour.

Well with Illustrator you can just draw the 0.75 x 0.75 in square by selecting the square tool and clicking anywhere on the document, then for size enter "0.75 in" in both the width and height fields. Then make an ellipse with the width and height "0.885 in" and then go to Window > Align, then...

In case you still need this, here it is: drawing I'm sure there's a way to do it with Illustrator, but I have no idea how so I just made it with AutoCAD.

Okay so here's some background on the problem, I'm working on a site (www.rdsphoto.net/2/) and I have a Javascript slideshow on it (http://smoothslideshow.jondesign.net/index.html) and I used a tutorial (http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex17/ajaxcontent.htm) to make it so the entire page...

That sounds like a really neat idea, but you would have to have a camera setup on a tripod just sitting there for a few months in a year, taking multiple pictures throughout the day, but it would be pretty sweet in the end...

1) What would you consider to be your skill level with Photoshop B - Highly skilled 2) In what way do you use Photoshop? B - Frequently, as a casual user 3) How much general computer experience would you say you have: A - "I am completely comfortable using a computer' 4) What age...
