Mutations in ubiquitously expressed metabolic genes often lead to CNS-specific effects, presumably because of the high metabolic demands of neurons. However, mutations in omnipresent metabolic pathways can conceivably also result in cell type-specific effects because of cell-specific requirements for intermediate products. One such example is the zebrafish noir mutant, which we found to be muta...

New light steering projectors in cinema form images by moving light away from dark regions into bright areas of an image. In these systems, the peak luminance of small features can far exceed full screen white luminance. In traditional projectors where light is filtered or blocked in order to give shades of gray (or colors), the peak luminance is fixed. The luminance of chromatic features benef...

We find clear evidence that Google Trends data on searches relevant to ci...

3D cinema and 3DTV are at two different levels in the screen size spectrum. When the same stereoscopic-3D content is viewed on a cinema screen and 3DTV screen, it will produce a different 3D impression. As a result, it is difficult to fulfill the requirements of 3DTV with content captured for 3D cinema. Thus, it is important to properly address the issue of 3DTV content creation to avoid possib...
