    The summaries were intriguing but lame. Here's the real thing (preprint):

    Interesting stuff.

  2. 11.3 Gpixel in my research lab by VDM · · Score: 5, Interesting · on Largest Digital Photograph in the World

    I know it's risky (risk of slashdotting, of course...), however among the things I do for research there are also the so-called "digital slides", which are digital copies of pathology glass slides. We acquire them with a motorised microscope, at 40x magnification, which means about 0.3 micron/pixel. The maximum area acquired was about 21x45 mm, for a total of 28340 images, each one is 699x572 pixel (analog camera). This corresponds to about 11.3 Gpixels. Usually we remain well under this value, but anyway around 1-2 Gpixel on average.
    Please be very kind with our test server: http://www.telemed.uniud.it/eslides/.
    (anyway, I never thought this kind of things could become a news item).
