Our skin, for example, changes its color very slightly when the blood flows under it.

That change is incredibly subtle, which is why, when you look at other people, when you look at the person sitting next to you, you don't see their skin or their face changing color.

When we look at this video of Steve here, it appears to us like a static picture, but once we look at this video through our new, special microscope, suddenly we see a completely different image.

We can actually see a human pulse.

We can see how fast Steve's heart is beating, but we can also see the actual way that the blood flows in his face.

So here you see the pulse and heart rate we extracted from a neonatal baby from a video we took with a regular DSLR camera, and the heart rate measurement we get is as accurate as the one you'd get with a standard monitor in a hospital.

(Laughter) And you know, presumably he's wearing makeup, the lighting here is kind of challenging, but still, just from the video, we're able to extract his pulse and show it quite well.

So how do we do all that?
ใฉใ†ใ‚„ใฃใฆใ„ใ‚‹ใฎใ‹ใงใ™ใŒ
We basically analyze the changes in the light that are recorded at every pixel in the video over time, and then we crank up those changes.
ใƒ“ใƒ‡ใ‚ชใฎใใ‚Œใžใ‚Œใฎใƒ”ใ‚ฏใ‚ปใƒซใซ่จ˜้Œฒใ•ใ‚ŒใŸๅ…‰ใฎๆ™‚้–“็š„ๅค‰ๅŒ–ใ‚’ๅˆ†ๆžใ—ใใฎๅค‰ๅŒ–ใ‚’ๆ‹กๅคงใ—ใฆใ„ใพใ™
We make them bigger so that we can see them.
ๅค‰ๅŒ–ใŒ่ฆ‹ใฆๅˆ†ใ‹ใ‚‹ใใ‚‰ใ„ใซๅคงใใใ™ใ‚‹ใ‚ใ‘ใงใ™
The tricky part is that those signals, those changes that we're after, are extremely subtle, so we have to be very careful when you try to separate them from noise that always exists in videos.
้›ฃใ—ใ„ใฎใฏๆ‰ใˆใŸใ„ๅค‰ๅŒ–ใŒ้žๅธธใซๅฐใ•ใชใ‚‚ใฎใ ใจใ„ใ†ใ“ใจใงใใฎๅค‰ๅŒ–ใ‚’้Œฒ็”ปใซใคใใ‚‚ใฎใฎใƒŽใ‚คใ‚บใ‹ใ‚‰ๆณจๆ„ๆทฑใๅˆ†้›ขใ™ใ‚‹ๅฟ…่ฆใŒใ‚ใ‚Šใพใ™
So we use some clever image processing techniques to get a very accurate measurement of the color at each pixel in the video, and then the way the color changes over time, and then we amplify those changes.
ใใ‚Œใžใ‚Œใฎใƒ”ใ‚ฏใ‚ปใƒซใฎใ”ใๆญฃ็ขบใช่‰ฒใ‚’ๅพ—ใ‚‹ใŸใ‚ใซๅทงๅฆ™ใช็”ปๅƒๅ‡ฆ็†ใ‚’่กŒใฃใฆใ„ใพใ™ใใ‚Œใ‹ใ‚‰่‰ฒใฎๆ™‚้–“ๅค‰ๅŒ–ใฎไป•ๆ–นใ‚’ๆ‰ใˆใใ‚Œใ‚’ๆ‹กๅคงใ—ใฆ
We make them bigger to create those types of enhanced videos, or magnified videos, that actually show us those changes.
ๅค‰ๅŒ–ใŒ็›ฎใง่ฆ‹ใฆๅˆ†ใ‹ใ‚‹ใ‚ˆใ†ๅค‰ๅŒ–ใฎๅผท่ชฟใ•ใ‚ŒใŸๆ˜ ๅƒใ‚’ไฝœใ‚Šใพใ™
But it turns out we can do that not just to show tiny changes in color, but also tiny motions, and that's because the light that gets recorded in our cameras will change not only if the color of the object changes, but also if the object moves.
ใ“ใฎใ‚ˆใ†ใซใ—ใฆ่ฆ‹ใˆใ‚‹ใ‚ˆใ†ใซใงใใ‚‹ใ‚‚ใฎใซใฏๅพฎ็ดฐใช่‰ฒใฎๅค‰ๅŒ–ใ ใ‘ใงใชใๅพฎ็ดฐใชๅ‹•ใใ‚‚ใ‚ใ‚Šใพใ™ใ‚ซใƒกใƒฉใซ่จ˜้Œฒใ•ใ‚Œใ‚‹ๅ…‰ใฏ่‰ฒใฎๅค‰ๅŒ–ใซใ‚ˆใฃใฆใ ใ‘ใงใชใ็‰ฉใฎๅ‹•ใใซใ‚ˆใฃใฆใ‚‚ๅค‰ๅŒ–ใ™ใ‚‹ใ‹ใ‚‰ใงใ™
So this is my daughter when she was about two months old.
ใ“ใ‚Œใฏ็”ŸๅพŒ๏ผ’ใƒถๆœˆใฎ้ ƒใฎ็งใฎๅจ˜ใงใ™
It's a video I recorded about three years ago.
๏ผ“ๅนดใปใฉๅ‰ใซ้Œฒ็”ปใ—ใŸใ‚‚ใฎใงใ™
And as new parents, we all want to make sure our babies are healthy, that they're breathing, that they're alive, of course.

So I too got one of those baby monitors so that I could see my daughter when she was asleep.

You can see the baby's sleeping, but there's not too much information there.

There's not too much we can see.
่ฆ‹ใฆๅˆ†ใ‹ใ‚‹ไบ‹ใฏๆฎ†ใฉใ‚ใ‚Šใพใ›ใ‚“
Wouldn't it be better, or more informative, or more useful, if instead we could look at the view like this.

So here I took the motions and I magnified them 30 times, and then I could clearly see that my daughter was indeed alive and breathing.

๏ผˆ ็ฌ‘ ๏ผ‰ ไธฆในใฆๆฏ”่ผƒใ—ใŸใจใ“ใ‚ใงใ™ใŒ
So again, in the source video, in the original video, there's not too much we can see, but once we magnify the motions, the breathing becomes much more visible.

And it turns out, there's a lot of phenomena we can reveal and magnify with our new motion microscope.

We can also magnify small mechanical movements, like vibrations in engines, that can help engineers detect and diagnose machinery problems, or see how our buildings and structures sway in the wind and react to forces.

Those are all things that our society knows how to measure in various ways, but measuring those motions is one thing, and actually seeing those motions as they happen is a whole different thing.

Sound, as we all know, is basically changes in air pressure that travel through the air.

Those pressure waves hit objects and they create small vibrations in them, which is how we hear and how we record sound.

But it turns out that sound also produces visual motions.
ใ—ใ‹ใ—้Ÿณใฏ่ฆ–่ฆš็š„ใชๅ‹•ใใ‚‚ไฝœใ‚Šๅ‡บใ—ใพใ™
Those are motions that are not visible to us but are visible to a camera with the right processing.

So here are two examples.
ไพ‹ใ‚’๏ผ’ใคใŠ่ฆ‹ใ›ใ—ใพใ™
This is me demonstrating my great singing skills.

Again, if you stare at that video, there's not too much you'll be able to see, but once we magnify the motions 100 times, we can see all the motions and ripples in the neck that are involved in producing the sound.

That signal is there in that video.

We also know that singers can break a wine glass if they hit the correct note.

So here, we're going to play a note that's in the resonance frequency of that glass through a loudspeaker that's next to it.

Once we play that note and magnify the motions 250 times, we can very clearly see how the glass vibrates and resonates in response to the sound.

Can we actually invert this process and recover sound from video by analyzing the tiny vibrations that sound waves create in objects, and essentially convert those back into the sounds that produced them.

In this way, we can turn everyday objects into microphones.

So that's exactly what we did.

So here's an empty bag of chips that was lying on a table, and we're going to turn that bag of chips into a microphone by filming it with a video camera and analyzing the tiny motions that sound waves create in it.

Again it's playing.
ใ“ใ‚Œใ‚’่ฆ‹ใฆใ‚‚
There's no chance you'll be able to see anything going on in that video just by looking at it, but here's the sound we were able to recover just by analyzing the tiny motions in that video.

And just to give you a sense of the scale of the motions here, a pretty loud sound will cause that bag of chips to move less than a micrometer.
