Hands-on stuff (1:30 onwards):

Rather than a single lens element being shifted to compensate for camera shake, Nokia’s OIS system moves the entire optical assembly in perfect synchronisation with the camera movement, or to be more precise, unintended camera shake. The benefit of this approach is that the amount and form of camera movement that can be compensated for is much greater.

 

Many OIS systems may only be able to handle movement frequencies up to a certain level. Based on our lab tests, Nokia’s new OIS system can cater for around 50% more movements per second than conventional OIS systems – up to around 500 movements every second! Besides the high frequency compensation, the system also needs to be able to respond extremely quickly to unintended movement to avoid so called “phase shift” or compensation lag. To help achieve this very fast reaction time, Nokia uses a closed loop system where the position of the lens assembly is monitored in real time, even whilst it’s moving to its calculated position allowing it to be continuously updated regardless of how random the camera movement is. This process of checking operates at a rate of up to 5x more frequently than typical OIS systems, approximately 300 times faster than that of the average human reaction time to an expected event.

i just want some google glasses so i can have a minimap in the top right corner of my field of view. IT'S ALL I EVER WANTED

well in the mean time you could just put little mirrors in your sunglasses.

its the closest thing to one. you put little mirrors on the edges of the glasses and you can see things behind you. practically 360o vision. it can hold you over until technology advances to the point of having radar built into your glasses so you can see if people are behind walls. which at this rate won't be too long.

I don't want that, i want a mini map like in grand theft auto

thats what im saying though. already a single iphone can pinpoint anyone else with an iphone and place them all on a mini-map with an app. and these glasses have the same tech, so nothing is stopping them from putting a circle mini-map in the corner that lets you see anyone thats carrying a device connected to the internet.

and undoubtedly you could make the dots that are cops blink so you know when its time run after plowing over that group of school children with your car.

not the most new, but remember these guys?

they're flying about in swarms now, piquing ET and Babar's interest from far away, boring local children, and ultimately plotting our doom, no doubt

(that's some test footage, not the real "light show", but it's still mildly interesting)

So we've found a new way to hassle the poor old plants.

 

Still though if you had this embedded underneath hedges and wirelessly relayed to your augmented reality. It could make brushing your hand against an hedge as you walk along a fun and surprising experience.

LOL. thats hilarious.
