Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) are devices that process a user’s brain signals to allow direct communication and interaction with the environment. BCIs bypass the normal neuromuscular output pathways and rely on digital signal processing and machine learning to translate brain signals to action.

We are in the early days of 3D television and 3D movie proliferation. In the June meeting of the IEEE Signal Processing Santa Clara Valley Chapter, the participants exploited the next generation 3D television demo, with Ingemar Jansson (the founder of HDI US, Inc.) and Edmund Sandburg (the inventor of the HDI Laser 3D HDTV projection system).

Given the prevalence and success of speech, audio, image, and video compression algorithms in consumer electronics, it is surprising that many high-speed digital signal processing (DSP) systems such as wireless infrastructure, radar processing, and medical imaging sensor subsystems have until recently not considered compression as an alternative for reducing data acquisition bandwidth and storage bottlenecks.

To compare the efficiency of steganalysis methods, the first scientific challenge on this topic is being organized and inviting participation.
