STMicro VD65G4 and VD55G4 0.56MP Global Shutter Image Sensors Facilitate Ultra-Low-Power Always-On Event-Driven Vision – CNX Software

VD55G4 and VD65G4 always on ultralow power global shutter image sensors

STMicroelectronics VD65G4 and VD55G4 are ultra-low-power 0.56-megapixel global shutter CMOS image sensors designed for battery-operated edge AI and always-on vision applications. The main difference between the two sensors is that the VD65G4 features a color RGB Bayer pattern, while the VD55G4 is a monochrome sensor designed to capture visible to near-infrared (NIR) light. Both sensors use a compact 1/9-inch optical format and a 2.16 µm pixel pitch, utilizing Back Side Illuminated (BSI), CDTI, and 3D stacking technologies to achieve a tiny 2.73 x 2.16 mm bare-die footprint. STMicro VD65G4 and VD55G4 specifications: Resolution – 0.56 MP (804 x 704) Chroma VD65G4 – RGB Bayer (RGGB). VD55G4  – Monochrome (Clear, Visible to NIR). Optical Characteristics – 1/9-inch (2.3mm) optical format with a 30° linear CRA and close to 1:1 aspect ratio. Pixel Technology – 2.16 µm x 2.16 µm pixel size utilizing global shutter, BSI, CDTI, and 3D stacking. Frame Rates […]

Elon Musk’s Greatest Courtroom Adversary: Himself

About five hours into Elon Musk’s testimony, I typed the following sentence into my notes: “I have never been more sympathetic to Sam Altman in my life.” Musk’s direct testimony was an improvement over yesterday – even if his lawyer kept asking leading questions to cue him in how to answer. But that memory was […]

New Complimentary App Streamlines File Exchange from Android Devices

connect through USB using a physical cable or flash drive. However, these approaches aren’t exactly the epitome of convenience. They require more steps than needed, and by the time you retrieve your files, you’ve already squandered a few valuable minutes.

If only there existed a more straightforward method to transfer files from any Android device to any computer, regardless of its brand and operating system. Fortunately, such a solution does exist, and it’s one of the must-have Android productivity applications you ought to download. Appropriately named Nothing Warp, this app is created by the same developers behind the Nothing phone. However, it is not limited to Nothing phones and can function on any Android device as well as on any computer equipped with a Chromium-based browser, such as your PC, Mac, or Linux machine.

What makes Nothing Warp easy to operate is that the only applications required to share a file are your phone’s file management or photos app and the browser on your computer.

How does Nothing Warp function?

Divine, a Fresh Application Bringing Back Vine with Jack Dorsey’s Backing, Now Accessible on the App Store

### Vine Returns as Divine

Longtime users of social networks may recollect Vine, the short-form video platform that swiftly gained popularity following its launch in June 2012 and was promptly acquired by Twitter. Essentially, Vine permitted users to share looped videos lasting up to 6 seconds. It drew in artists and creators, amassing over 200 million active users by the close of 2015. However, after several years of stagnation, Twitter discontinued the app in 2017 while keeping its video catalog available until 2019. A significant portion of this catalog has now made its way back on Divine, a new application supported by Jack Dorsey’s nonprofit and Other Stuff.

The app was initially announced last year and remained in beta until today, when it officially launched on the App Store and Google Play. As noted by TechCrunch, the debut of this Vine revival stemmed from a rigorous reconstruction initiative, which entailed rebuilding the original archive from extensive backup files and reinstating related engagement data.

Evan Henshaw-Plath, a member of the Divine development team, articulated Divine’s journey to becoming a fully-operational, revitalized video social network, following the same principles of the original Vine platform: “It was genuinely the Viners who were like ‘no, no — this is far more significant than just nostalgia.’ The users expressed their desire for something akin to Vine that could reset social media and eliminate AI clutter. They urged us to take our time and get it right. And that’s precisely what we did.”

Another intriguing feature of Divine is its foundational technology, which utilizes Nostr, an open social media protocol that also has the backing of Jack Dorsey. TechCrunch reports that the Divine team is “exploring the integration of the open-source AT Protocol, which powers Bluesky,” and may also “incorporate the ActivityPub protocol, which underlies alternative social networks like Mastodon and Flipboard and is integrated into Meta’s Threads.”
