A new study, led by researchers at Lancaster University, investigated how dynamically slowing down or speeding up playback is perceived by viewers, and how playback speed changes compare to other ways of overcoming viewer internet slowdowns – such as reducing picture quality and pausing for rebuffering. The researchers found a safe range of slowed down playback – speeds that won’t be noticeable to most users. Their findings can help inform the design of video players and enhance the streaming experience for viewers.
ACM, the Association for Computing Machinery, today named Charles H. Bennett and Gilles Brassard as the recipients of the 2025 ACM A.M. Turing Award for their essential role in establishing the foundations of quantum information science and transforming secure communication and computing.
A new shark deterrent developed at FAU could transform commercial fishing by dramatically reducing unintended shark bycatch. Created by Stephen Kajiura, Ph.D., the patent-pending device uses a simple zinc and graphite combination to generate a weak electric field that repels sharks without affecting target fish. Field tests have shown up to a 69% reduction in shark bycatch, offering a practical, low-cost solution to a persistent ecological and economic challenge.
