introduction: laryngeal dysfunction may be divided into three categories; organic, neurologic and functional disorders. dysphonia and hoarseness are the most common symptoms and, in some cases, the only signs of laryngeal dysfunction. in differential diagnosis of any type of chronic hoarseness, a neoplastic process must be considered and, thus continuous light video laryngoscopy can provide imp...

Greater network connectivity allows multimedia content to be delivered to a wide range of end-hosts with various compute and display capabilities. In many cases the format of the delivered multimedia must be processed to adapt it for use on the end-host. For low-cost devices with limited compute and display power, this adaptation must be within the capability of the device. In this paper we add...

A colour holographic display is considered the ultimate apparatus to provide the most natural 3D viewing experience. It encodes a 3D scene as holographic patterns that then are used to reproduce the optical wavefront. The main challenge at present is for the existing technologies to cope with the full information bandwidth required for the computation and display of holographic video. We have d...

High dynamic range (HDR) video can offer consumers a much improved viewing experience compared to current broadcast video. The dynamic range of current television images, referred to as standard dynamic range (SDR), is governed by cathode ray tube physics first documented about eighty years ago. The standards include the Electro-Optical Transfer Function (EOTF) and the Opto-Electrical Transfer ...

Texas Instruments’ Digital Light ProcessingTM (DLPTM) technology provides all-digital projection displays that offer superior picture quality in terms of resolution, brightness, contrast, and color fidelity. This paper provides an overview of the digital video processing solutions that have been developed by Texas Instruments for the all-digital display. The video processing solutions include: ...

Newborn infants prefer faces to all other visual displays. All previous studies of face recognition in newborns used schematic faces, photographs or static real faces. In our study, we used video films to explore, for the first time, recognition of talking faces, in newborns. Our results suggest that video films of talking faces are very salient stimuli for newborns and can enhance face recogni...

The increasing power and falling cost of computers, combined with improvements in digital projectors and cameras, are making the use of video interaction in human-computer interfaces more popular. This paper presents a review of video interface projects in the Computer Laboratory at the University of Cambridge over the past 15 years. These encompass early work on augmented environments, applica...

Discussion fora of instructional videos contain previously-discussed questions and answers. These video comments can resolve many points confusion for learners. However, finding relevant content in a separated discussion forum is challenging disruptive to learning flow. This paper introduces Adjacent Display Relevant (ADRD): it displays threaded panel adjacent the dynamically updates based on t...
