This week new homes and new lives. DIY space battles and hidden

:00:08.:00:14.

figures. Did you see that? EU, shame on you! We are living in

:00:15.:00:52.

interesting times. To many it feels like the world is shifting on its

:00:53.:00:58.

access. Tempers are rising, voices are being raised. And there is

:00:59.:01:08.

movement, political. Ideological. And physical. And this is one of the

:01:09.:01:18.

most divisive issues of the day - how to handle what the UN has cold

:01:19.:01:22.

the largest migration of people since the Second World War. At a

:01:23.:01:29.

migrants? Are they refugees? Should they be welcomed? Should they be

:01:30.:01:36.

turned away? At the Barbican in London and artist is making this

:01:37.:01:44.

nuclear with this work - in coming. He has used a long-range infrared

:01:45.:01:47.

camera to film the arrival of migrants and refugees of camps

:01:48.:01:52.

across Europe. It is actually a military tool that can detect body

:01:53.:01:58.

heat from 30 kilometres away. You can see through smoke and haze day

:01:59.:02:07.

or night. So this is a thermographic camera. In other words, you can

:02:08.:02:12.

actually see people was my body is glowing. A radiant thermal glow. You

:02:13.:02:16.

cannot really see their faces. It kind of a non- Isa 's people. It is

:02:17.:02:24.

an image of an individual with out a biological traits. It dehumanises a

:02:25.:02:29.

person, in a way, which is appropriate since it is a weapons

:02:30.:02:39.

grade technology. One interesting result of using a thermal imaging

:02:40.:02:43.

camera is that you cannot tell the skin colour of the people in the

:02:44.:02:51.

film. They are simply people. And of course that is part of this point.

:02:52.:02:58.

He says he wants to use the technology against itself, showing

:02:59.:03:03.

that the same camels that allow missiles to see can also emphasise

:03:04.:03:08.

the fact that all humid life gives off the same glow. We have to work

:03:09.:03:14.

with these people as humans. Instead our governments have created these

:03:15.:03:17.

extraordinary technologies to enforce those borders. So I guess I

:03:18.:03:23.

wish people would dwell on that gullible bit. Germany is one country

:03:24.:03:28.

that has taken on hundreds of thousands of refugees. Many travel

:03:29.:03:33.

to the country from Syria after hearing about its opendoor policy in

:03:34.:03:39.

the summer of 2015. But successfully integrating asylum seekers into

:03:40.:03:42.

society here is still one of the many challenges facing the nation.

:03:43.:03:48.

There are many obstacles to integration, including finding

:03:49.:03:50.

housing and getting a job and learning the language. But

:03:51.:03:54.

technology may help to speed the process. We have been to Berlin,

:03:55.:04:00.

which is now home to over 60,000 Syrian refugees, to see how. When

:04:01.:04:11.

the refugee crisis began, some of Germany's largest empty buildings

:04:12.:04:17.

were given over to how is refugees. Including the International Congress

:04:18.:04:21.

Centre. It was abandoned for conferences and home to over 450

:04:22.:04:28.

guests. 80 people live together in each of these spaces, colourful

:04:29.:04:32.

boxes lining a whole. Most are from Syria but there are asylum seekers

:04:33.:04:35.

from other countries as well. Afghanistan. Rush hour. Pakistan.

:04:36.:04:44.

Ideally, guests only stay here for a few weeks but many people have lived

:04:45.:04:52.

here for over a year. I first heard about this camp when I was covering

:04:53.:04:58.

Europe's biggest tech show. I was surprised to learn that there had

:04:59.:05:03.

been people living in the halls here as well, even recently. In fact hold

:05:04.:05:10.

26 used to housed refugees who have moved out since the conference

:05:11.:05:14.

started. The juxtaposition between a refugee camp in a high-tech trade

:05:15.:05:18.

show cold struck me. But many refugees have been helped by

:05:19.:05:21.

technology, using Internet and smartphones to guide their journey

:05:22.:05:26.

to Germany. Including this man, a programmer from Damascus to spend

:05:27.:05:29.

ten days travelling to Germany from Turkey and was filmed for a TV

:05:30.:05:37.

Channel. He graduated as a computer engineering 2010 and arrived Germany

:05:38.:05:41.

in 2014. I was a little disappointed because I thought I would find big

:05:42.:05:49.

technical companies and I would directly find a job and work but it

:05:50.:05:55.

was not like that. I needed about ten months to discover a position.

:05:56.:06:10.

It takes a few dozen refugees each semester, this course. The school

:06:11.:06:14.

was heavily supported by Facebook who donated space. Mark Zucker Bird

:06:15.:06:19.

and this wife visited the students recently. Through this place a web

:06:20.:06:27.

was -- and app was developed for newcomers. This is the people who

:06:28.:06:36.

speak Arabic so they do not suffer like me in the beginning. They can

:06:37.:06:39.

directly access all the information that they need. He won an award for

:06:40.:06:49.

this work and is entering an entrepreneurship scholarship for six

:06:50.:06:52.

months. In Berlin, finally I found my dream that I can take courses and

:06:53.:07:00.

connect with a lot of companies. I can enter the tech community here in

:07:01.:07:04.

this country. It was not easy to find that in the beginning. For many

:07:05.:07:10.

newcomers, the legal requirement to learn German is one of the hardest

:07:11.:07:12.

hurdles to integration. Outside the class, students can use

:07:13.:07:27.

one of these crime books donated by Google. Felix helped to build a

:07:28.:07:34.

Wi-Fi network here, which was non-existent. This is the server, a

:07:35.:07:40.

little further. It controls who was allowed to get on the Internet and

:07:41.:07:44.

who is not allowed. The crime books are allowed to be taken out five

:07:45.:07:50.

evenings a week and are controlled by a password which changes hourly.

:07:51.:07:54.

If anybody does something wrong we can tell the government. We are not

:07:55.:07:59.

bad people. This guy was a bad person. This distinction is

:08:00.:08:08.

important in Germany where regulation makes the owner of a

:08:09.:08:11.

Wi-Fi network liable for any activity. Muhamed from Syria found

:08:12.:08:18.

it difficult to get online when he arrived in Berlin and had a very

:08:19.:08:21.

different experience in this shelter. We have computer rules,

:08:22.:08:26.

free computers for 400 people and you needed an appointment to go and

:08:27.:08:30.

use one of them. You have to deal with security and if they are not in

:08:31.:08:36.

a good mood they will give you an appointment as after two weeks. If I

:08:37.:08:43.

want to use the Internet, I can't. He joined a group of activists who

:08:44.:08:48.

installed Routers across the cities which can connect refugee housing to

:08:49.:08:53.

the Internet for free. That is where we like to install our networks, at

:08:54.:09:02.

homes or churches. I went to see one of the installations on top of the

:09:03.:09:11.

church tower. Nodes are routed through virtual private servers

:09:12.:09:14.

which gets around some of the laws. This is a nano station antenna,

:09:15.:09:21.

regular five gigahertz financial Wi-Fi network like you would have at

:09:22.:09:27.

home. Somewhere like this where there are no inhibiting factors,

:09:28.:09:32.

this can reach for several kilometres. Cisco, one of the

:09:33.:09:40.

world's largest network provider saw an opportunity where is refugees had

:09:41.:09:45.

online access they could connect to courses already available in their

:09:46.:09:48.

language. Its campus in Berlin comes complete with an autonomous bus. It

:09:49.:09:55.

is also home to a familiar face. We first saw this man last year when we

:09:56.:10:01.

were filming in a camp in Jordan. He had lost this leg in an explosion in

:10:02.:10:05.

Syria. He was volunteering in Jordan with a start-up refugee app to print

:10:06.:10:12.

a cheap replacement parts. He made the difficult decision to travel to

:10:13.:10:17.

Berlin. He is now in Cisco training to be an engineer. It was amazing

:10:18.:10:22.

for me. This building from outside, so old and on the inside it is

:10:23.:10:29.

filled with technology, cutting-edge technology. When I realised that

:10:30.:10:33.

this would be my workspace I was even more excited. He spent this

:10:34.:10:39.

weekends teaching a robotics course for children. It is a nice and fun

:10:40.:10:44.

way to introduce programming to children. Cisco is currently working

:10:45.:10:49.

with five refugee interns and would like to expand the programme. They

:10:50.:10:53.

see the influx of Syrians as an opportunity to fill demand for

:10:54.:10:56.

programming skills in the country. Where would you see him after this

:10:57.:11:02.

programme? I would love to have him in the innovation Centre because at

:11:03.:11:07.

the moment I have a lot of different topics that I want to establish and

:11:08.:11:11.

I would love him to engaging with our customers and the solutions.

:11:12.:11:16.

Even then, in our future. Never have an issue of how to handle a refugee

:11:17.:11:22.

crisis been more controversial. By opening its borders, Germany is at

:11:23.:11:25.

the forefront of this debate. And it is clear that the tech community has

:11:26.:11:29.

a role to play and can help ease the transition to a new home. Hello and

:11:30.:11:37.

welcome to the week in Tech. It was the week that Uber found itself

:11:38.:11:41.

under fire after a former employee accused the company of sexual

:11:42.:11:46.

harassment in a blog post. Uber responded saying it would conduct an

:11:47.:11:50.

urgent investigation into the claims which it cold abhorrent and against

:11:51.:11:54.

everything Uber stands for and believes in. It was also the week

:11:55.:11:59.

that YouTube announced it would get rid of an skippable ads in 2018.

:12:00.:12:06.

Scientists showed off a special coating making it easier to get

:12:07.:12:10.

catch about of a bottle. And astronomers have discovered seven

:12:11.:12:13.

sized planets orbiting a single star. And, before you live, three of

:12:14.:12:18.

them may have conditions to support life. If you just hate living in a

:12:19.:12:22.

world with wires then research may have the answer. Their prototype

:12:23.:12:27.

living room can wisely charge ten items such as smart phones and fans

:12:28.:12:34.

by static have the resonance. This means you can walk around while

:12:35.:12:38.

powering up, the purpose-built room has walls, ceiling and a floor may

:12:39.:12:42.

develop many with a copper pipe in the middle, a signal outside and a

:12:43.:12:47.

power amplifier so not quite a simple DIY job. And finally,

:12:48.:12:53.

researchers at Brigham Young University have shown off an origami

:12:54.:12:59.

inspired light weight bullet-proof pillow. The Barrier is made up of 12

:13:00.:13:04.

layers of bullet-proof Kevlar and weighs only ?55.

:13:05.:13:16.

How many faces can you see in this picture? Did you see that? This is a

:13:17.:13:31.

persistence of vision display. You can only see it when your eyes, or

:13:32.:13:39.

in our case the camera, move left or right. We've slowed right down so

:13:40.:13:44.

you can really feast on... Uh... My face. So, persistence of vision

:13:45.:13:50.

display is predicated upon the persistence of vision for which is

:13:51.:13:55.

an effective human eye and it is the effect where when you look at any

:13:56.:13:59.

bright light and you look away you see a ghost of that bright light for

:14:00.:14:03.

a moment. So what happens is our display takes a standard

:14:04.:14:06.

2-dimensional image and Brexit up in the vertical columns. This single

:14:07.:14:10.

column of light brings out each eye, until it gets to the end of the

:14:11.:14:15.

image and start over. So as your eye looks away from the display, it

:14:16.:14:19.

prints each column in your retina in a different location and the whole

:14:20.:14:24.

image is reassembled in the eye. Moving strips of super fast flashing

:14:25.:14:29.

LEDs are painting pictures or text in the air for a couple of decades,

:14:30.:14:34.

but this relies on our eyes to do the movement. Something they are

:14:35.:14:39.

naturally doing all the time. For what purpose? Well, enormous

:14:40.:14:47.

adverts, for a start. We've created a new type of projection technique

:14:48.:14:50.

for creating persistence of vision displays and we patted that globally

:14:51.:14:55.

and what that lets us do it is scale the display massively. -- patented.

:14:56.:15:00.

It becomes challenging the display anything more than three metres, but

:15:01.:15:04.

with our Eco technology we can create displays up to 200 metres

:15:05.:15:09.

tall, turning skyscrapers into the world's biggest image machines.

:15:10.:15:14.

That's why if you've been walking down a particular street in Berlin

:15:15.:15:19.

last Monday, you might have seen my face out of the corner of your eye.

:15:20.:15:28.

Do you think this is safe? Do you think this is to distract him for

:15:29.:15:33.

drivers, for example? It is very important that we introduce it in

:15:34.:15:38.

the right way. It isn't going to be for every location. I wouldn't want

:15:39.:15:41.

to introduce this next to a motorway. We need people to

:15:42.:15:45.

understand it and much like when LED billboards first came into the

:15:46.:15:48.

public realm, they were very distracting and there was

:15:49.:15:52.

legislation instantly put in place in all to prevent destruction from

:15:53.:15:57.

drivers. We are going to have to travel a similar path. That's not

:15:58.:16:02.

the only eye-catching projection that I've seen this week. The head

:16:03.:16:06.

of next week's Mobile world Congress in Barcelona have also managed to

:16:07.:16:10.

get a sneak preview of mobile devices. It is the latest version of

:16:11.:16:18.

Sony's XB projector, and android -based device that throws a touch

:16:19.:16:24.

sensitive display on a table or wall. It has all the top Seoul

:16:25.:16:28.

touchscreen functionality of a tablet, with your finger's decisions

:16:29.:16:34.

being watched by a camera under the projector and a row of infrared

:16:35.:16:37.

sensors at table level to detect when you've actually touched the

:16:38.:16:43.

surface. We are heading towards a world where our devices will be so

:16:44.:16:47.

small that we won't want a screen or a keyboard or any kind of device

:16:48.:16:51.

attached to them and I see this as one of the solutions. You just have

:16:52.:16:55.

a display when you want it on whatever surface is around. Very

:16:56.:17:04.

cool, but this week... Even that is not the coolest thing I've seen.

:17:05.:17:14.

From blue screen jungles to strange adventures in time, over the past

:17:15.:17:20.

few weeks we've been exploring some of the best visual effects from the

:17:21.:17:24.

past year and this week is no exception. Directed by Gareth

:17:25.:17:32.

Edwards, the visual genius behind Monsters and Godzilla, Rogue One has

:17:33.:17:38.

earned over $1 billion at the box office and has been nominated for an

:17:39.:17:41.

Oscar in visual effects. Edwards worked with the team at Industrial

:17:42.:17:48.

Lights and Magic to recreate that Galaxy and as we found out when we

:17:49.:17:52.

visited them in London they provided some very cool Kit to comment his

:17:53.:18:00.

unique directing style. He is a very hands-on filmmaker. Likes to walk

:18:01.:18:03.

around the sets and physically pick up the camera is and walk around and

:18:04.:18:09.

find interesting angles that might not have occurred to him when he was

:18:10.:18:12.

planning the shoots in preproduction. They were keen that

:18:13.:18:19.

they were able to apply that same style of film into the synthetic

:18:20.:18:23.

camera, so we used the real-time virtual reality system and so he

:18:24.:18:28.

could show us rather than explain it to us. This is it? This is what we

:18:29.:18:37.

call our V camera. It is an iPad with a controller stuck on the back!

:18:38.:18:41.

So you are using existing technology? Exactly. We can set it

:18:42.:18:46.

out relatively easily and quickly. Is this where he did the scenes?

:18:47.:18:50.

This is where he shot his virtual film. So this is the scene that was

:18:51.:18:56.

actually set up for the trailer, the first trailer. You have this thing

:18:57.:19:00.

running and he would just walk around and decide on his best angles

:19:01.:19:10.

and after that? The idea wasn't that he would be getting perfectly smooth

:19:11.:19:15.

camera moves, but he was able to sort of show to as the beginning of

:19:16.:19:20.

the shot, I want it here, the end of the shot, I wanted here. Then it

:19:21.:19:25.

could be immediately picked up eye animators. We shop this in London

:19:26.:19:31.

and then pushed it into the pipeline and it was picked up by people in

:19:32.:19:35.

San Francisco and take was ready for them to review the next morning.

:19:36.:19:41.

They I have a go? Absolutely. -- may I have. The animation in this scene

:19:42.:19:47.

is the dish of the death star. Look! You can see behind the dish! So I

:19:48.:19:53.

can get a different shot to Gareth if I wanted? If I find a better

:19:54.:20:00.

shot, do I get a job? Waiting for an answer.

:20:01.:20:04.

Look at that! It's the dish going to the death star. Here we are

:20:05.:20:25.

following it as it approaches the shield gate. We can move around and

:20:26.:20:33.

follow it in. Over to the front. This film is set in the minutes

:20:34.:20:40.

before the very first one and so getting these computer generators,

:20:41.:20:47.

the models, to look exactly like the physical models from 1977 was I

:20:48.:20:50.

guess vital? Our friends and colleagues in San Francisco took

:20:51.:20:58.

digital scans of the original models. They had lots of texture

:20:59.:21:03.

references and thankfully just recreated them so that there

:21:04.:21:08.

wouldn't be any jarring differences between these ships and the others.

:21:09.:21:21.

We have teams of people who are responsible for laying out camera

:21:22.:21:25.

moves, we have teams of people who are building digital models, texture

:21:26.:21:32.

and digital models. We have a fantastic team of animators and a

:21:33.:21:36.

team who take all of the range is that we generate and put it

:21:37.:21:41.

altogether with all the footage and integrate it into a photorealistic

:21:42.:21:45.

result. So this model here are, is that completely full detail, the UK

:21:46.:21:53.

move the cameras anywhere? We had a camera rotated around on its own and

:21:54.:21:57.

we moved it randomly around the city. We ended up with hundreds of

:21:58.:22:01.

views. So many of them were fascinating. Typically if you give a

:22:02.:22:07.

shot to layout you will start dressing everything to the camera.

:22:08.:22:12.

You will start laying out buildings, typically with lighting you will

:22:13.:22:16.

start with backlighting, from one direction. But what we found was

:22:17.:22:20.

that because none of those considerations had been taken, you

:22:21.:22:24.

end up with occasionally finding things that were so natural, so

:22:25.:22:28.

lighting would be eliminated on one half of the wall, in the background

:22:29.:22:33.

for example, or none of the roads are perpendicular to the camera.

:22:34.:22:38.

That was really successful and we ended up using a lot of those views

:22:39.:22:49.

as the background in our shoots. How much of that was based on a real

:22:50.:22:59.

mushroom cloud? A lot. We did spend a lot of time watching old footage

:23:00.:23:03.

of nuclear explosions. It is quite terrifying when you watch them over

:23:04.:23:04.

and over again. And we wish everyone who worked on

:23:05.:23:21.

Rogue One all of the best of luck for this weekend. Just a quick word

:23:22.:23:25.

about next week's programme, which will be at the Mobile World

:23:26.:23:30.

Congress, the big phone show in Barcelona. We will bring you the

:23:31.:23:33.

full view from the show, mainly because we will be repeating what we

:23:34.:23:36.

did in Switzerland last year and filming it in 360, although this

:23:37.:23:44.

time will be streaming some of it live and we will show you how we

:23:45.:23:47.

filmed this incredible super slow mode footage. -- slow motion. We

:23:48.:23:56.

will give you a clue, the device is very, very mobile! In fact, we will

:23:57.:24:01.

show you exactly what it is and how good it is online on Monday. Keep

:24:02.:24:05.

your eye on Twitter for more details!

:24:06.:24:28.

Well, Friday was much quieter and calmer day than what Thursday

:24:29.:24:31.
