Comment Re:Dynamic Range, (Score 1) 289

Actually, you'd could use this technology to give you amazing dynamic range. Let's say all you cared about was ~7.5 megapixels. Well, take the 120mp sensor and carve it up into 4x4 tiles. Assuming a Bayer array, 8 of these sensors will be green sensitive, 4 red and 4 blue. OK, now change the filters on these sensors so that they scale for different levels of light (not just wavelength). You now have four times the dynamic range in red and blue, and perhaps even more in green (you can trade off perceived resolution for dynamic range in the green sensors).

Comment Check out bodybilt... (Score 1) 742

My company asked me to go through an ergonomic assessment. After getting someone to take pictures of myself at my desk, they recommended a keyboard stand (http://www.ultimatebackstore.com/product-exec/product_id/151?cid=11341%5EScooter+Stand%5EFRO) and a Bodybilt chair (http://www.amazon.com/Bodybilt-100053-400-0402-K3507-High-Back/dp/B000C9T40G). The scooter stand helps get the keyboard in the right position (especially difficult if you have a large monitor).

The chair was really expensive (the link is to one with all the bells and whistles), but has proven to really help. FWIW, I upgraded from the Aeron, and find the Bodybilt to be a lot more comfortable.

I agree completely with the post discussing the relative benefits of buying a great desk chair vs. buying an expensive car. My body spends a LOT more time in the chair!
