Based in Australia, she writes about everything from video games and K-pop to movies and gadgets. Insta360 has launched the X6, its new flagship 8K 360 camera. Following last year's X5, the new X6 offers larger sensors, a higher frame rate, and 10-bit colour in an even more compact and rugged body. The Insta360 X6 had been rumoured for a while, with an FCC filing hinting at its release earlier this year .


I capped my 240Hz monitor at 120 FPS. My GPU thanked me for it

When you purchase through links in our articles, we may earn a small commission. I capped my 240Hz monitor at 120 FPS. Cutting my gaming monitor's refresh rate in half barely changed my gameplay, but it dropped GPU power draw by up to 80W. When I bought my Alienware AW3225QF gaming monitor during last year's Prime Day sales, I mainly got it for the QD-OLED panel . But as an upgrade for a near-10-year-old Asus MG279Q, it was a major step up in multiple other ways: better resolution, better colors and contrast, better response time, and better refresh rate.

TaDiCodec: Text-aware Diffusion Speech Tokenizer for Speech Language Modeling

Neural Information Processing Systems

Speech tokenizers serve as foundational components for speech language models, yet current designs exhibit several limitations, including: (1) dependence on multi-layer residual vector quantization structures or high frame rates, (2) reliance on auxiliary pre-trained models for semantic distillation, and (3) requirements for complex two-stage training processes.


VFRTok: Variable Frame Rates Video Tokenizer with Duration-Proportional Information Assumption

Neural Information Processing Systems

Modern video generation frameworks based on Latent Diffusion Models suffer from inefficiencies in tokenization due to the Frame-Proportional Information Assumption. Existing tokenizers provide fixed temporal compression rates, causing the computational cost of the diffusion model to scale linearly with the frame rate. The paper proposes the Duration-Proportional Information Assumption: the upper bound on the information capacity of a video is proportional to the duration rather than the number of frames. Based on this insight, the paper introduces VFRTok, a Transformer-based video tokenizer, that enables variable frame rate encoding and decoding through asymmetric frame rate training between the encoder and decoder. Furthermore, the paper proposes Partial Rotary Position Embeddings (RoPE) to decouple position and content modeling, which groups correlated patches into unified tokens. The Partial RoPE effectively improves content-awareness, enhancing the video generation capability. Benefiting from the compact and continuous spatio-temporal representation, VFRTok achieves competitive reconstruction quality and state-of-the-art generation fidelity while using only $1/8$ tokens compared to existing tokenizers.


Supplementary Material for Enhancing Motion Deblurring in High-Speed Scenes with Spike Streams Shiyan Chen

Neural Information Processing Systems

All RSTB blocks consist of 6 STB blocks. Each sequence contains 33 frames. Blurry images with different motion magnitudes are generated by averaging the surrounding 33 or 65 images. S1, we observe that the introduction of CAMMA also improves the performance of de-blurring across all settings. We have added comparisons regarding computational complexity and inference time in Tab.

Blinking Beyond EAR: A Stable Eyelid Angle Metric for Driver Drowsiness Detection and Data Augmentation

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Abstract-- Detecting driver drowsiness reliably is crucial for enhancing road safety and supporting advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). We introduce the Eyelid Angle (ELA), a novel, reproducible metric of eye openness derived from 3D facial landmarks. Unlike conventional binary eye state estimators or 2D measures, such as the Eye Aspect Ratio (EAR), the ELA provides a stable geometric description of eyelid motion that is robust to variations in camera angle. Using the ELA, we design a blink detection framework that extracts temporal characteristics, including the closing, closed, and reopening durations, which are shown to correlate with drowsiness levels. T o address the scarcity and risk of collecting natural drowsiness data, we further leverage ELA signals to animate rigged avatars in Blender 3D, enabling the creation of realistic synthetic datasets with controllable noise, camera viewpoints, and blink dynamics. Experimental results in public driver monitoring datasets demonstrate that the ELA offers lower variance under viewpoint changes compared to EAR and achieves accurate blink detection. At the same time, synthetic augmentation expands the diversity of training data for drowsiness recognition. Our findings highlight the ELA as both a reliable biometric measure and a powerful tool for generating scalable datasets in driver state monitoring.
