Intel’s FakeCatcher techology can detect deepfake videos instantly
Intel has developed a technology that can successfully distinguish between real videos and deepfakes in real-time using skin analysis.
The FakeCatcher deepfake detector works by analysing ‘blood flow’ in video pixels to determine a video’s authenticity in milliseconds.
When our hearts pump blood, our veins change colour. These blood flow signals are collected from all over the face and algorithms translate these signals into maps.
‘Then, using deep learning, it can instantly detect whe...

‘Edible drone for emergency scenarios’ – Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (EPFL)
Drones have the potential to be very useful in disaster scenarios by transporting food and water to people in need. But whenever you ask a drone to transport anything, anywhere, the bulk of what gets moved is the drone itself. Most delivery drones can carry only about 30 percent of their mass as payload, because most of their mass is both critical, like wings, and comes in the form of things that are essentially useless to the end user, like wings.
