Not sure which bank you are with but mine seems to have some exclusivity deal with samsung phones which it hides under the guise of 'other phones are not secure enough to do contactless payments'. Not a hard fact but it would also

Here is one using open CV in python [1]. While there are many ways to find circles the Hough transform is a fairly simple and popular one, I don't know what Matlab uses internally but it would probably be an optimised version of Hough

Perhaps not its intended purpose but to me it looks like an upgraded version of Google Keep. As someone who likes to collect resources and notes on topics for both research papers and personal projects I see this as a useful tool for that.

You're welcome, not often that MRI related posts come up so it is nice to share this side of what I do. I think certainly there is room for it and I know there have been some recent entrants into the field which consider themselves MRI

Yeah essentially, I meant that in the sense of innovating how people access MRI scans and the data associated with them.

MRI like a lot of other med tech is very heavily patented. The core tech has long since expired but any of the cutting edge work will probably have patents around it. I do believe that an MRI startup has a chance to disrupt but it may be mo

That's the hope. A little outside my field but current compressed sensing in MRI research is looking at reduction factors of about 2-8 (typically 2, 4, or 8 from tradition) in compressed sensing. This is still pretty rare in commercial

There are a number of machines that don't use superconducting magnets and hence don't have such stringent cooling needs. These machines typically need these sort of cooling setups to support higher fields but imaging is still poss

Putting the 'should we or shouldn't we' aside I'd just like to say thanks for putting together an article that goes all the way from a 'classic' setup to something running on a host. I often find that posts lik

For what it's worth I have 2 and have yet to experience any need to hard reset after roughly a week of being connected to the same network. I've also been able to use shutdown -r without any issue. I used them as beacons to mock u

awesome! thanks. I hadn't seen calllib before. Nice to see someone else in the overlap of matlab users and rust users.

When you look at the math (as you have) it seems almost certain to be a scam. ResMed has a Technical note [0] on powering one of their devices form a battery, while product efficiencies can vary they are recommending ~30 Amp hour batteries

Does anyone have any good resource for someone looking to try this sort of thing? Preferably aimed at someone with High Level + C/ASM knowledge looking to apply it in this direction.

I fully agree, a someone who has taught programming to people the one step that seems to take people from program copiers to programmers is the ability to read and understand error messages and warnings. The number of times the answer is st

The question of security is an interesting one. There is nothing but laws stopping someone from opening, reading and modifying paper ballot papers, should online be different? Do we really have a transparent system now?

In general I agree with the author. I used to be a patent free advocate but when we started our medical hardware startup that dream sort of came crashing down. In the medical space it is almost impossible to work without patents, there are

I think it will be interesting to see if this goes down a similar path to the old newsgroups wherein someone develops a protocol to send binary data through bitmessage efficiently.
