Today's Story Highlights

Researchers Finagle Sound From Silent Video
Researchers from MIT, Microsoft and Adobe have developed an algorithm to
extract audio information from video footage. They recovered
intelligible speech from a video of a potato chip bag that was shot at a
distance of 15 feet behind soundproof glass. The team also obtained
useful audio signals from videos of aluminum foil, the surface of a
glass of water, and the leaves of a potted plant.

Navdy May Drive Into the Sunset
Navdy has announced an aftermarket car heads-up display console that
lets drivers access their iOS or Android smartphone's apps without
taking their eyes off the road. It projects a 6-inch transparent image
within the driver's field of vision showing simplified versions of the
user's smartphone apps. The device also will have its own apps.

The Connected Car, Part 1: The Future Starts Now - Will Linux Drive It?
The Age of the Connected Car is dawning. The Linux Foundation is
positioning an open source Linux OS to take the front seat in steering
carmakers to adopting Automotive Grade Linux, or AGL, as the engine
driving all in-car electronics. Today's automobile has from 60 to 100
sensors to control everything from climate to airbags and dozens of
vehicle components.
