Pure Data (souvent abrégé pd) est un logiciel de création multimédia interactive couramment utilisé dans les domaines artistiques, scientifiques et pédagogiques. Sa popularité réside notamment dans sa facilité d'utilisation. Plutôt qu'un langage de programmation textuel, Pure Data propose un environnement de programmation graphique dans laquelle l'utilisateur est invité à manipuler des icônes représentants des fonctionnalités et à les brancher ensemble.

VIDEO CONTAINERS

You may think of video files as “AVI files” or “MP4 files.” In reality, “AVI” and “MP4″ are just container formats. Just like a ZIP file can contain any sort of file within it, video container formats only define how to store things within them, not whatkinds of data are stored. (It’s a little more complicated than that, because not all video streams are compatible with all container formats, but never mind that for now.)

A video file usually contains multiple tracks — a video track (without audio), plus one or more audio tracks (without video). Tracks are usually interrelated. An audio track contains markers within it to help synchronize the audio with the video. Individual tracks can have metadata, such as the aspect ratio of a video track, or the language of an audio track. Containers can also have metadata, such as the title of the video itself, cover art for the video, episode numbers (for television shows), and so on.

There are lots of video container formats. Some of the most popular include

• MPEG 4, usually with an .mp4 or .m4v extension. The MPEG 4 container is based on Apple’s older QuickTime container (.mov). Movie trailers on Apple’s website still use the older QuickTime container, but movies that you rent from iTunes are delivered in an MPEG 4 container.
• Flash Video, usually with an .flv extension. Flash Video is, unsurprisingly, used by Adobe Flash. Prior to Flash 9.0.60.184 (a.k.a. Flash Player 9 Update 3), this was the only container format that Flash supported. More recent versions of Flash also support the MPEG 4 container.
• Ogg, usually with an .ogv extension. Ogg is an open standard, open source–friendly, and unencumbered by any known patents. Firefox 3.5, Chrome 4, and Opera 10.5 support — natively, without platform-specific plugins — the Ogg container format, Ogg video (called “Theora”), and Ogg audio (called “Vorbis”). On the desktop, Ogg is supported out-of-the-box by all major Linux distributions, and you can use it on Mac and Windows by installing the QuickTime components orDirectShow filters, respectively. It is also playable with the excellent VLC on all platforms.
• WebM is a new container format. It is technically similar to another format, called Matroska. WebM was announced in May, 2010. It is designed to be used exclusively with the VP8 video codec and Vorbis audio codec. (More on these in a minute.) It is supported natively, without platform-specific plugins, in the latest versions of Chromium, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Opera. Adobe has also announced that a future version of Flash will support WebM video.
• Audio Video Interleave, usually with an .avi extension. The AVI container format was invented by Microsoft in a simpler time, when the fact that computers could play video at all was considered pretty amazing. It does not officially support features of more recent container formats like embedded metadata. It does not even officially support most of the modern video and audio codecs in use today. Over time, companies have tried to extend it in generally incompatible ways to support this or that, and it is still the default container format for popular encoders such as MEncoder.

kinect , un clone, WAVI Xtion, pc

PrimeSense et Asus dévoilent une alternative officielle au Kinect sur PC.
le système se compose de deux éléments : d'un côté le Xtion, le détecteur de mouvement lui-même, et l'autre le Wavi, qui se compose lui-même de deux boîtiers à relier respectivement à l'ordinateur et à la télévision pour utiliser l'accessoire sur sa TV via une connexion sans fil.
WAVI Xtion ne disposera pas de toutes les fonctionnalités du Kinect,(le système de reconnaissance vocale, ni le suivi motorisé de l'utilisateur).
