Rising sun...

I just came across a post on a research project by Adobe, which makes manipulating video very easy and straightforward. I remember having read about a similar research project before, it might have been Zunavision but I'm not sure. This is, of course, exactly what is needed for Immersive Video [1] to make it the perfect playground for evaluating dynamic public displays. It also brings us closer to the scenario, where video cannot be trusted anymore. There is a great movie with Sean Connery and Wesley Snipes, Rising Sun, where a whole lab works full time over a weekend to manipulate video evidence in a murder case.
