0:01:59 > 0:02:00MUSIC OVER SPEECH

0:02:08 > 0:02:10WHOOSHING

0:02:26 > 0:02:29Welcome to Click. I'm Spencer Kelly. And welcome to Oslo in Norway.

0:02:29 > 0:02:33If you are wondering why we have such a spectacular opening shot

0:02:33 > 0:02:35this week, well, firstly it never hurts.

0:02:35 > 0:02:38Secondly, it's because this week we

0:02:38 > 0:02:42are looking at the latest unmanned aerial vehicles.

0:02:42 > 0:02:44These are the drones.

0:02:47 > 0:02:49Yep, we're up in the air to find out how to fly

0:02:49 > 0:02:53and film from drones big and small.

0:02:53 > 0:02:57We'll take you to flight school to hone your piloting skills

0:02:57 > 0:03:01and we will get the lowdown on the research that could make these

0:03:01 > 0:03:03things make themselves.

0:03:03 > 0:03:05All that, plus the latest tech news

0:03:05 > 0:03:07and the very best of this week's web in Webscape.

0:03:15 > 0:03:18Flying high, dipping low.

0:03:18 > 0:03:20Going fast or holding steady?

0:03:20 > 0:03:24These are the easy to fly, ultra stable radio-controlled

0:03:24 > 0:03:26aircraft many of us have been waiting for.

0:03:26 > 0:03:30Coolest of all, they now come fitted with cameras.

0:03:32 > 0:03:35In the last couple of years, drones have hit the skies

0:03:35 > 0:03:38and are already being put to work in all kinds of fields,

0:03:38 > 0:03:41from following the action on the pitch to getting that million

0:03:41 > 0:03:44pound mansion shot for your property sale.

0:03:44 > 0:03:46Hobbyists are also taking some pretty amazing shots,

0:03:46 > 0:03:50and giving birth to two new buzzwords in the process.

0:03:50 > 0:03:53Forget "Instagram" and the "selfie",

0:03:53 > 0:03:57all rise for the "dronestagram" and "dronie"!

0:04:00 > 0:04:03Of course, the word "drone" conjures up darker pictures too.

0:04:03 > 0:04:07It's also the name given to the much larger remote-control planes

0:04:07 > 0:04:11controversially used in warfare, and inevitably even the smaller

0:04:11 > 0:04:15helicopters that we are interested in can and have been weaponised.

0:04:15 > 0:04:20Like this one, which is fitted with a Taser.

0:04:20 > 0:04:24But there is evidence that drones can save lives too,

0:04:24 > 0:04:27by acting as eyes in the sky in search and rescue ops.

0:04:27 > 0:04:30Some can even fly autonomously, following the owner,

0:04:30 > 0:04:37as they do things where you really do need both hands on the job.

0:04:38 > 0:04:40Looks good...

0:04:40 > 0:04:44And of course, they are a godsend for low-budget film-makers,

0:04:44 > 0:04:48who can now get the shots that they have only ever dreamt of.

0:04:48 > 0:04:50WHOOSHING

0:04:51 > 0:04:53- Are you hurt?- Thanks, Superman!

0:04:56 > 0:04:59And that is where this chap comes in.

0:04:59 > 0:05:03This is the Mini Pro, the first of its kind,

0:05:03 > 0:05:07a really compact drone capable of carrying heavy stuff,

0:05:07 > 0:05:09like professional film equipment.

0:05:09 > 0:05:12And this is the kind of thing it can do...

0:05:14 > 0:05:18This is the city of Trondheim as only the birds have seen it before.

0:05:18 > 0:05:21Norwegian production company Fram Film specialises in filming

0:05:21 > 0:05:23scenery from interesting angles,

0:05:23 > 0:05:26and as camera operator Grim Berge explained,

0:05:26 > 0:05:31drones give you many different perspectives from one camera.

0:05:31 > 0:05:33You can do interesting aerials

0:05:33 > 0:05:35that a helicopter can't do.

0:05:35 > 0:05:37You can go a lot closer

0:05:37 > 0:05:38to a subject.

0:05:38 > 0:05:41You can follow someone through the park.

0:05:41 > 0:05:44You can go from a close-up of you, for example,

0:05:44 > 0:05:48and in one shot go up and see this whole park.

0:05:48 > 0:05:52It seems it only needs a couple of people to do what previously

0:05:52 > 0:05:54would have taken a lot of people.

0:05:54 > 0:05:57Even if it is just going smoothly along the ground.

0:05:57 > 0:06:01It's replacing a lot of dolly shots and crane shots that usually

0:06:01 > 0:06:05would need ten people to do.

0:06:05 > 0:06:08It's also something in itself, a completely new thing,

0:06:08 > 0:06:13and when something is new it is very exciting visually.

0:06:13 > 0:06:15The Mini Pro has eight blades,

0:06:15 > 0:06:18two on each of four ultralight carbon fibre arms.

0:06:18 > 0:06:22It's carrying a Canon 5D,

0:06:22 > 0:06:27the type of stills camera that also shoots high quality video.

0:06:27 > 0:06:32And this isn't the only drone that we have come to see.

0:06:32 > 0:06:37As pilot Eric Solberg configured this eight-armed beast,

0:06:37 > 0:06:40I got the tech breakdown from Grim.

0:06:40 > 0:06:43I like this. It looks as if you are going shark fishing!

0:06:43 > 0:06:45Yeah! Exactly!

0:06:45 > 0:06:48- That's to take the strain off your hands.- Heavy-duty.

0:06:48 > 0:06:50The drone consists of two parts.

0:06:50 > 0:06:55One part is what I call the flying spaghetti monster...

0:06:57 > 0:06:59..all these arms with eight propellers,

0:06:59 > 0:07:02which is giving uplift and flying the drone.

0:07:02 > 0:07:04The second part is with the camera and the legs,

0:07:04 > 0:07:08and all these motors and wires and all that.

0:07:08 > 0:07:11We can control the camera itself,

0:07:11 > 0:07:16so we can tilt and we can shift and we can pan,

0:07:16 > 0:07:18and do some interesting camera shots.

0:07:20 > 0:07:22This is more than a one-person job?

0:07:22 > 0:07:26This is basically two separate things stuck together?

0:07:26 > 0:07:29It's possible to fly a drone, one man alone, but if you want to

0:07:29 > 0:07:34do this professionally and you want good results, you need two people.

0:07:34 > 0:07:37There's one camera operator, like me in this case,

0:07:37 > 0:07:39and one pilot, which is Eric.

0:07:45 > 0:07:48And with so much power and weight to control,

0:07:48 > 0:07:51you can see why you wouldn't want to try and steer the copter

0:07:51 > 0:07:53and the camera at the same time.

0:07:55 > 0:07:58Oh, my goodness, it's gone!

0:08:02 > 0:08:06In fact, they both recently took the drone to Svalbard

0:08:06 > 0:08:07to shoot part of the video

0:08:07 > 0:08:11for the UK band Clean Bandit's new song, Come Over.

0:08:11 > 0:08:14One of the things that makes this work for professional film-makers

0:08:14 > 0:08:17is the way it can shoot rock steady shots

0:08:17 > 0:08:20even in an unforgiving environment.

0:08:20 > 0:08:22As the aircraft tilts and wobbles,

0:08:22 > 0:08:27the ultra-high-definition Black Magic camera is kept completely stable

0:08:27 > 0:08:31by the auto balancing gimbal that holds it.

0:08:31 > 0:08:34And how quickly can the gimbal react,

0:08:34 > 0:08:37if you're buffeted by some wind or if you want to accelerate the drone,

0:08:37 > 0:08:40can it react quickly enough to keep the camera rock-steady?

0:08:40 > 0:08:42Yeah, absolutely.

0:08:42 > 0:08:47It's, er... 400 times per second it compensates,

0:08:47 > 0:08:54so it's not going to be any delay that anyone's going to notice.

0:08:54 > 0:08:55Steadier than our cameraman!

0:08:55 > 0:08:56Perhaps!

0:08:58 > 0:09:04There's plenty more from the skies and the ground in a couple of minutes, after this week's tech news.

0:09:06 > 0:09:09In what's said to be the largest data breach ever known,

0:09:09 > 0:09:13a Russian group has hacked 1.2 billion usernames and passwords

0:09:13 > 0:09:17belonging to more than 500 million e-mail addresses.

0:09:17 > 0:09:21Hold Security, a US firm specialising in discovering breaches,

0:09:21 > 0:09:25claimed the stolen information came from over 420,000 websites,

0:09:25 > 0:09:29including many that it describes as leaders in virtually all industries

0:09:29 > 0:09:30across the world.

0:09:30 > 0:09:35The firm didn't give details of the companies affected by the hack.

0:09:35 > 0:09:39If you don't know your tablets from your phablets, ask a six-year-old.

0:09:39 > 0:09:41According to a study by Ofcom,

0:09:41 > 0:09:45six-year-olds have a greater understanding of digital tech

0:09:45 > 0:09:47than the average 45-year-old.

0:09:47 > 0:09:52The report claims digital knowledge peaks around 15 and drops thereafter.

0:09:52 > 0:09:55The study also reports that the average British person

0:09:55 > 0:10:00spends eight hours and 41 minutes using technology every day,

0:10:00 > 0:10:02more time than they spend sleeping.

0:10:02 > 0:10:07And Europe's Rosetta Probe has become the first spacecraft in history

0:10:07 > 0:10:09to be manoeuvred alongside a comet.

0:10:09 > 0:10:14The probe has taken ten years, five months and four days to catch up

0:10:14 > 0:10:15with Comet 67P,

0:10:15 > 0:10:19and it's begun sending back some amazing pictures of its surface.

0:10:19 > 0:10:23The probe travelled almost 6.5 billion kilometres on its journey

0:10:23 > 0:10:26to reach the comet and will now follow it around the sun

0:10:26 > 0:10:30before deploying a craft to land on its surface in November.

0:10:30 > 0:10:33Rumours that Bruce Willis and Ben Affleck are leading the mission

0:10:33 > 0:10:35are, unfortunately, not true!

0:10:39 > 0:10:42So we've established that drones are really useful for companies

0:10:42 > 0:10:44wanting to produce amazing-looking videos.

0:10:44 > 0:10:47But the reason everyone is getting so excited about these things

0:10:47 > 0:10:50is because they are small and affordable enough

0:10:50 > 0:10:52for almost anyone to muck about with.

0:10:52 > 0:10:57They are not, however, quite easy enough to unbox and fly,

0:10:57 > 0:11:00and there are rules about where you're allowed to fly them.

0:11:00 > 0:11:03For example, not near the Norwegian royal palace!

0:11:03 > 0:11:06And that's why Jen Copestake, Mark Cieslak and I

0:11:06 > 0:11:09decided to spend a day at flight school.

0:11:12 > 0:11:16Few things compare to the tranquillity

0:11:16 > 0:11:18of the countryside in summer.

0:11:18 > 0:11:21Tranquillity we're shattering with our drones.

0:11:28 > 0:11:31This deserted airfield outside of London

0:11:31 > 0:11:33is the perfect location for us

0:11:33 > 0:11:35to practise flying three different drones

0:11:35 > 0:11:38from three different ends of the spectrum.

0:11:39 > 0:11:42But before taking to the skies, it's worth seeking advice

0:11:42 > 0:11:45from an expert radio control aviator.

0:11:49 > 0:11:52Right, so things I want you to check before you fly.

0:11:52 > 0:11:54Make sure you control the atmosphere you're flying in,

0:11:54 > 0:11:56so check the sun, the wind,

0:11:56 > 0:11:58make sure you're safe for emergencies and eventualities,

0:11:58 > 0:12:01check transmitter control and any site rules.

0:12:01 > 0:12:02If you're flying on public property,

0:12:02 > 0:12:04can you control everything in that environment?

0:12:04 > 0:12:07If a horse rider was to come through, or a dog walker,

0:12:07 > 0:12:10can you make sure you're safely away from them?

0:12:10 > 0:12:13A couple of other things to bear in mind -

0:12:13 > 0:12:16if you're using drones commercially, you must be licensed,

0:12:16 > 0:12:18and even if you aren't flying them commercially

0:12:18 > 0:12:19but are using a camera on your drone,

0:12:19 > 0:12:22you have to stay 50 metres away from people

0:12:22 > 0:12:23not involved in your activity.

0:12:23 > 0:12:25Right, so we're ready to go.

0:12:26 > 0:12:30I'll be flying the Extreme Flyer's Micro Drone 2.0.

0:12:30 > 0:12:32It's a great entry-level option,

0:12:32 > 0:12:35and is the cheapest aircraft we're testing.

0:12:35 > 0:12:37That's reflected in the quality of the camera,

0:12:37 > 0:12:39which couldn't be called HD.

0:12:39 > 0:12:41Its controls are designed for real pilots

0:12:41 > 0:12:43so it can be difficult to get to grips with

0:12:43 > 0:12:45if you've never flown an aircraft before,

0:12:45 > 0:12:48but you should be in control with a few hours of practice.

0:12:48 > 0:12:51A special algorithm helps you do tricks in stunt mode.

0:12:51 > 0:12:55It's incredibly nimble, perfect if you're filming extreme sports,

0:12:55 > 0:12:57and despite its delicate appearance,

0:12:57 > 0:13:00it is very rugged, and if anything DID break,

0:13:00 > 0:13:04its modular design means it's easy to replace any parts.

0:13:04 > 0:13:06Some of them can even be 3-D printed.

0:13:06 > 0:13:09One of the most amazing things about it is you can launch it

0:13:09 > 0:13:12from the ground or from the air.

0:13:19 > 0:13:22I'll be flying the Parrot AR Drone 2.0.

0:13:22 > 0:13:25It's fitted with forward and downward facing cameras.

0:13:25 > 0:13:27To fly it indoors, there's an indoor hull

0:13:27 > 0:13:30with prop guards to protect against spinning blades.

0:13:32 > 0:13:37It doesn't need them outside, which helps improve its manoeuvrability.

0:13:37 > 0:13:39The AR drone doesn't come with a controller.

0:13:39 > 0:13:42Instead, it uses Wi-Fi and an app,

0:13:42 > 0:13:47which works with iOS and Android smartphones and tablets.

0:13:49 > 0:13:53Controlling this drone using a tablet is nowhere near as precise

0:13:53 > 0:13:57as any of the drones that can be controlled using sticks,

0:13:57 > 0:13:59But it does have one advantage.

0:13:59 > 0:14:00The cameras that are on the AR drone,

0:14:00 > 0:14:04any footage that they record is sent directly to this tablet,

0:14:04 > 0:14:08and it's really easy to upload it and share it online.

0:14:09 > 0:14:12Owners of Nvidia Shield hand-held

0:14:12 > 0:14:15can make use of that device's analogue controllers as well.

0:14:15 > 0:14:19The AR drone has been available for quite some time,

0:14:19 > 0:14:22and it has a well supported ecosystem of augmented reality apps,

0:14:22 > 0:14:25including dog fighting and air racing games.

0:14:25 > 0:14:27But at this price point, it's difficult

0:14:27 > 0:14:31to ignore the occasional lag that occurs when trying to control it.

0:14:31 > 0:14:35A fun toy, but hardcore quadcopter aviators

0:14:35 > 0:14:37might prefer our next offering.

0:14:39 > 0:14:44Finally, I'll be flying the DJI Phantom 2 Vision Plus.

0:14:44 > 0:14:46This one is for more serious flyers,

0:14:46 > 0:14:49and it comes with plenty of useful features.

0:14:53 > 0:14:56It has indicator lights to tell you from a distance

0:14:56 > 0:14:58of any issues with, say, the battery.

0:14:58 > 0:15:01There's a dashboard app for your phone, giving you its status,

0:15:01 > 0:15:05GPS coordinates, and a view from its camera.

0:15:07 > 0:15:11Oh, and it goes like a rocket, really fast and really high.

0:15:14 > 0:15:17What's really surprised me about this drone is just how stable it is.

0:15:17 > 0:15:19I mean, it's really responsive to the controls,

0:15:19 > 0:15:21but if you let go of them...

0:15:22 > 0:15:23..it just hangs there.

0:15:25 > 0:15:27Which is pretty incredible.

0:15:30 > 0:15:34But if you want to talk about stability, check out that camera.

0:15:34 > 0:15:38It too has a gimbal, meaning no matter how the drone tilts

0:15:38 > 0:15:43during flight, your footage is as smooth as Steadicam.

0:15:43 > 0:15:44So, with a bit of practice,

0:15:44 > 0:15:47you can shoot video that will knock your socks off.

0:15:51 > 0:15:54Now, it is worth mentioning just one more time

0:15:54 > 0:15:57how important safety is when flying one of these things.

0:15:57 > 0:16:01They can fall out of the sky for no apparent reason.

0:16:03 > 0:16:06So, our flight training continues.

0:16:06 > 0:16:09But there is just time for one flight school selfie.

0:16:09 > 0:16:11Sorry, dronie.

0:16:19 > 0:16:23We've looked at the rules for flying your drones at home.

0:16:23 > 0:16:25The aircraft we're filming with in Norway are, of course,

0:16:25 > 0:16:29much heavier duty than those you can buy in the shop.

0:16:29 > 0:16:31In fact, they're custom-made

0:16:31 > 0:16:34by drone pilot and ex-engineer Erik Solberg,

0:16:34 > 0:16:36at his Oslo workshop.

0:16:37 > 0:16:40I joined him while he was tinkering with the Mini Pro

0:16:40 > 0:16:41that we filmed with earlier

0:16:41 > 0:16:45to find out what makes him and his drones tick.

0:16:46 > 0:16:48And he told me that these things wouldn't be here at all

0:16:48 > 0:16:52if it wasn't for the mobile phone.

0:16:52 > 0:16:57The development in the sensors and gyros, gyroscopes,

0:16:57 > 0:17:01and accelerometers, which are actually a part of every iPhone

0:17:01 > 0:17:03and every mobile device today, you know,

0:17:03 > 0:17:07those that when you flip the screen, it turns it round.

0:17:07 > 0:17:10Without those sensors, it wouldn't be possible to do this.

0:17:10 > 0:17:12So, if it goes a little bit like this,

0:17:12 > 0:17:15it sends a signal to increase the power here,

0:17:15 > 0:17:16and decrease here a bit.

0:17:16 > 0:17:19So it does about 400 adjustments per second.

0:17:19 > 0:17:24What is the thing that you would still most like to do

0:17:24 > 0:17:26with a drone that you haven't done yet?

0:17:27 > 0:17:29Well, if you look at these big ones...

0:17:32 > 0:17:36This one here can lift approximately 100 kilos.

0:17:38 > 0:17:45I weigh 75, so my craziest idea is to actually make a harness

0:17:45 > 0:17:50similar to those '60s jet packs, have the drone over me,

0:17:50 > 0:17:53and, you know, just take off and fly.

0:17:53 > 0:17:55HE LAUGHS

0:17:55 > 0:17:57I find this drone technology fascinating.

0:17:57 > 0:17:59I think you can tell that, can't you?

0:17:59 > 0:18:02It's already advanced enough to bring us something that can fly

0:18:02 > 0:18:05that's this small, and something that can fly that is this big.

0:18:05 > 0:18:09But the whole industry is still just in its infancy, and even now,

0:18:09 > 0:18:13they're dreaming up new jobs for these things to do.

0:18:13 > 0:18:14Here's Mark Cieslak.

0:18:16 > 0:18:19Drones or UAVs, unmanned air vehicles,

0:18:19 > 0:18:22are already controversially employed

0:18:22 > 0:18:25by an increasing number of air forces around the world.

0:18:25 > 0:18:28BAe Systems is building what it thinks will evolve

0:18:28 > 0:18:31into the next generation of this technology.

0:18:31 > 0:18:34Called Taranis, it's an aircraft designed to demonstrate

0:18:34 > 0:18:38technological capabilities, from stealth to advanced computers,

0:18:38 > 0:18:41which fly the aircraft to and from its missions.

0:18:41 > 0:18:44Taranis is designed to have limited autonomy.

0:18:44 > 0:18:47Human pilots can still control the aeroplane remotely

0:18:47 > 0:18:50from bases thousands of miles away.

0:18:50 > 0:18:54The aircraft is designed to be almost invisible to radar.

0:18:54 > 0:18:56That drives the shape of the aircraft,

0:18:56 > 0:19:00and by definition, that makes it quite difficult to control.

0:19:00 > 0:19:03The aeroplane has to fly itself.

0:19:03 > 0:19:06The pilot is too slow when it's on the ground to respond to that,

0:19:06 > 0:19:09so what the pilot is doing is, he's commanding the vehicle,

0:19:09 > 0:19:11he's actually telling it where to go,

0:19:11 > 0:19:14but the detail of how the aeroplane flies is done on board

0:19:14 > 0:19:16by the mission system and the computers.

0:19:20 > 0:19:23Much of the detail of this project is still top secret.

0:19:23 > 0:19:27BAe is more forthcoming about some of its other future concepts,

0:19:27 > 0:19:29though, including the transformer drone,

0:19:29 > 0:19:33which saves fuel by forming up into an aerodynamically efficient wing.

0:19:33 > 0:19:36When the aeroplane arrives at its destination,

0:19:36 > 0:19:40it can split into three separate aircraft to perform individual tasks.

0:19:40 > 0:19:44There's also the drone with an on-board 3D printer,

0:19:44 > 0:19:46which could print parts, equipment or mini-drones

0:19:46 > 0:19:49as required while performing a mission.

0:19:49 > 0:19:51Concepts like these, though, are still some way from making

0:19:51 > 0:19:55the jump from computer-generated animation to reality.

0:19:55 > 0:19:59We've pitched this as being a possibility towards the 2040s

0:19:59 > 0:20:02Now, we don't imagine that every single

0:20:02 > 0:20:07component of one of these mini UAVs to be 3D printed,

0:20:07 > 0:20:11but rather where you have common components across a range

0:20:11 > 0:20:14of possible UAVs that may be produced,

0:20:14 > 0:20:17then we may simply have those pre-fabricated

0:20:17 > 0:20:19and select them from a type of carousel.

0:20:20 > 0:20:23Some ideas just might be a bit closer to

0:20:23 > 0:20:25flying in the not-too-distant future,

0:20:25 > 0:20:28using drones to rescue people from remote

0:20:28 > 0:20:30or dangerous locations, for instance.

0:20:31 > 0:20:34While drones might be able to save people in the future,

0:20:34 > 0:20:37they're saving animals lives right now.

0:20:38 > 0:20:42SkyCap fly drones of their own design in support of anti-poaching

0:20:42 > 0:20:46teams in the Kruger National Park in South Africa.

0:20:46 > 0:20:48Kruger are losing a thousand rhino a year,

0:20:48 > 0:20:50so brink of extinction stuff is going on.

0:20:50 > 0:20:53With the anti-poaching stuff that we originally started with

0:20:53 > 0:20:57approximately two years ago, we used fixed wing aircraft to provide a

0:20:57 > 0:21:00surveillance up to about 10km range.

0:21:00 > 0:21:02We began to realise that you can't land a fixed wing

0:21:02 > 0:21:04aircraft in a forest or in dense savanna scrub,

0:21:04 > 0:21:07so we wanted to look at a way to use multi rotors to do that

0:21:07 > 0:21:10kind of work. But the problem was that multi rotors,

0:21:10 > 0:21:12because of battery technology,

0:21:12 > 0:21:15can only stay in the air, usually, for about ten or 15 minutes.

0:21:15 > 0:21:17So we have created a long endurance quadcopter,

0:21:17 > 0:21:19which will give us 60 minutes in the air,

0:21:19 > 0:21:22carrying a thermal camera of a spectral imager,

0:21:22 > 0:21:25so that we can get our anti-poaching teams the time

0:21:25 > 0:21:28they need to make an interception, as required, on the ground.

0:21:29 > 0:21:33From military operations to rescuing people and preventing poaching,

0:21:33 > 0:21:37it would seem that the skies are about to get an awful lot busier.

0:21:47 > 0:21:50you will love exploring the world on two wheels no doubt.

0:21:50 > 0:21:53But, apparently, the very next thing you need to do

0:21:53 > 0:21:55when you finish each trip is blog about it...

0:21:55 > 0:21:57at least, according to Kate Russell.

0:21:58 > 0:22:02Not many people get to live out their dream of exploring,

0:22:02 > 0:22:05but for photographer Alex Chacon,

0:22:05 > 0:22:10burning up 125,000 miles on his motorbike was just the start.

0:22:10 > 0:22:14You can see the routes he took and enjoy the outstanding photos

0:22:14 > 0:22:17and video he shot at modernmotordiaries.com.

0:22:22 > 0:22:26The most epic journey Alex has undertaken

0:22:26 > 0:22:31so far was a 500-day ride from Alaska to Argentina,

0:23:18 > 0:23:21is Brainwave, which is £2 on iOS.

0:23:21 > 0:23:26It has a selection of 30 binaural programmes designed to stimulate

0:23:26 > 0:23:30brainwave frequencies associated with various states of mind.

0:23:31 > 0:23:35You'll need to put on headphones or listen on decent stereo speakers,

0:23:35 > 0:23:39then the effect of the tones at similar frequencies

0:23:39 > 0:23:43playing into your ears is supposed to promote a third frequency
