Sony Ericsson X3 Concept Phone with 10MP Camera and 2.5GHz Dual-Core CPU

A new concept phone of Sony Ericsson has emerge which suppose to have a 2.5GHz dual-core application processor and 10 megapixel camera. The phone is Sony Ericsson X3. Ya its very high as a point of smartphone but really not very surprising as today's smartphones promise more and more performance and higher clocked processors.

As we already have 1.2GHz dual-core mobile phones available in market. Nvidia is gearing up for the launch of the first smartphones and tablet PCs with quad-core application processors inside, its Kal-El Tegra 3 chip, to be more precise, but this is not all. Chip makers are also working on speeding up these processors, and the first 2GHz multi-core CPU might very well arrive on shelves as soon as next year.  
According to news by Softpedia, however, a fast processor is nothing inside a new smartphone if other hardware specs were not bumped up as well, but the said concept device would cover them all. Sony Ericsson X3 comes from Frank Tobias, an enthusiast photographer and designer from Luxembourg.

According to Frank Tobias, “So here's the Sony Ericsson X3. It features a 10.0 megapixel camera with HD-function up to 1080p. It's 4.2' touchscreen has a resolution of 540x920 pxls. It supports a 2.5 Ghz Dualcore-CPU. The internal memory capacity is up to 64 GB. Don't worry about that there's “nothing” under the touchscreen, there is a touchpad which shows the symbols you need. I hope it's OK like that”.

More will confirm after the official announcement by Sony Ericsson and will clear the full features and availability of Sony Ericsson X3

Microsoft and Korean Researchers Develop Techs to Detect and Block Porn

Microsoft and researchers from a South Korean university have developed two different technologies that can auto-detect pornographic images and movies and filter them. The first technology named PhotoDNA from Microsoft. The second technology has been developed by Advanced Institute of Science and Technology in South Korea.

PhotoDNA has developed in partnership with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. This technology will be used to scan Facebook, Bing, and SkyDrive for child porn. If inappropriate images are found, they are immediately deleted, and the the person who upload this will be reported to the authorities. The second technology by two Korean researchers have used the Radon transform signal processing technique to detect a "sexual scream or moan" in digital video files.

Facebook adopts PhotoDNA and joins Microsoft and The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children to disrupt the proliferation of online child exploitation. The automatic detection and removal of child porn, in itself, is of huge importance but the inclusion of Facebook, the largest photo sharing service in the world, is gargantuan. PhotoDNA can accurately detect images that have been significantly resized or cropped, and through extensive testing it has yet to provide a single false positive result. Facebook will scan every image that’s uploaded and compare it against a database of child porn digital fingerprints, and simply refuse to accept any exploitative images. The only problem with PhotoDNA, though, is that it can’t decide that an image is pornographic; it can only match an image against known samples of child porn.
PhotoDNA can be used for any kind of images, including consensual adult pornography and when combined with audio detection of porn, you would have a tool that could successfully block the digital distribution of every kind of porn. Imagine a hyper-conservative state that decides to issue a blanket ban on any and all pornography. That government could install PhotoDNA and the scream detector on core ISP routers — and if you think you can evade it with encryption or proxying, the government could also demand that Facebook, Flickr, RapidShare, and other digital file lockers install the porn scanner on their servers.

The moan detector technology by Korean researchers found that while speech is low-pitched and music is variable, pornographic sounds are generally high-pitched, change tone rapidly, and periodically repeat. Surprisingly, this "moan detector" technology is actually very accurate, successfully detecting 93% of the porn test clips. The technique missed some clips with confusing background tracks, and it also falsely detected some comedy shows as pornography: the the sounds of laughter, cheering, and crying have sexual characteristics, apparently
