:00:13. > :00:39.already told the world. Technology touches every aspect of
:00:40. > :00:43.our lives, and it is usually used for good. Sometimes, it is used for
:00:44. > :00:49.good. Sometimes, it is useful ill as well. That seems to be the case with
:00:50. > :00:52.the news coming out of Syria and Iraq which has been unremittingly
:00:53. > :00:55.grim. Islamic State has been waging a campaign of terror with horrific
:00:56. > :00:58.results. One particularly new aspect of this has been the extensive and
:00:59. > :01:01.expert use of social media to broadcast its message, both to
:01:02. > :01:07.create fear and to bring in new recruits. Some Twitter users this
:01:08. > :01:19.week started urging others to stop sharing the material under the
:01:20. > :01:22.#ISISblackout. We have come to Leicester to meet one person who is
:01:23. > :01:25.using his skills to turn their own propaganda against them. This is
:01:26. > :01:27.Elliot Higgins, father of one and resident of Leicester and a
:01:28. > :01:31.self`employed investigative journalist. Working from a small
:01:32. > :01:34.office, he is the founder of Belling Cat, a website which uses open
:01:35. > :01:37.source databases and power of the crowd to analyse photos and videos
:01:38. > :01:51.posted by insurgents in Syria and Iraq and tries to work out where
:01:52. > :01:53.they were taken. For example, spotting details and bridges,
:01:54. > :01:56.unusual buildings and other notable features in the background of these
:01:57. > :01:59.propaganda shots of a training camp somewhere in Iraq, he was able to
:02:00. > :02:02.match the photos to similar shots taken by locals and two satellite
:02:03. > :02:14.images, to pinpoint the location of the camp. Earlier this year, after
:02:15. > :02:17.the Flight MH17 crash in Ukraine, he monitored photos on Instagram and
:02:18. > :02:20.Twitter by people in the area to track the journey of an unusual
:02:21. > :02:25.military vehicle that he thinks was carrying a surface`to`air missile on
:02:26. > :02:31.that day. He believes that he has been able to pinpoint the field from
:02:32. > :02:35.which it was launched. This is from a video in the Ukraine. There is
:02:36. > :02:41.that white spot and this is one from Russia. It is the same one. It might
:02:42. > :02:45.look small but this operation costs money. Elliott gave up his job to do
:02:46. > :02:51.this full`time and has raised ?50,000 through Kickstarter to
:02:52. > :02:54.sustain and expand his operation. Well, it really started when looked
:02:55. > :03:03.I was looking at the conflict in Libya. Really, I was just interested
:03:04. > :03:05.in current events. There was information being posted on sites
:03:06. > :03:08.like Youtube and Twitter and Facebook which was being ignored. It
:03:09. > :03:11.seemed to be that some of this information was interesting. The
:03:12. > :03:15.problem was the question of how do we know if it is true. I started to
:03:16. > :03:18.teach myself ways to verify the information. One of the first videos
:03:19. > :03:22.I looked at had a big main road and a mosque in it. They said that it
:03:23. > :03:26.this certain town and I went to the town and I found the road and I
:03:27. > :03:29.found exactly the same mosque and I could verify it was the same town
:03:30. > :03:32.using that information. While you may have assume that government
:03:33. > :03:35.agencies are already doing this kind of stuff and with better resources
:03:36. > :03:38.than one laptop, Elliott does not think that they are. Yeah, I've been
:03:39. > :03:41.contacted by all kinds of different agencies, you know, different
:03:42. > :03:44.departments of the same agency, saying, "This is interesting, how do
:03:45. > :03:50.you do it? " It is something I'm very willing to show them. It is
:03:51. > :03:53.open source information. If I can figure out where someone was
:03:54. > :03:56.standing when they were filming the video and they do it every week,
:03:57. > :03:59.then that means that people with artillery and rocket launchers can
:04:00. > :04:02.also target that position. Last week, he claims to have pinpointed a
:04:03. > :04:09.location in Syria where the American journalist James Foley was killed by
:04:10. > :04:26.militants. You can make out ` it is most likely to be trees rather than
:04:27. > :04:30.individual structures. This is a best estimate based on what we know.
:04:31. > :04:46.I am certain that it is in this region. Motorist in the UK are being
:04:47. > :05:18.warned of the danger of using these devices while driving. The US space
:05:19. > :05:24.agency have been debating whether to send more devices into space. The US
:05:25. > :05:27.space agency NASA has announced which companies it is backing to
:05:28. > :05:30.take the country's astronauts back into space. Since retiring their own
:05:31. > :05:33.shuttles in 2011, the Americans have had to rely on Russian ships to get
:05:34. > :05:36.off the ground. The decision sees $6.2 billion being paid out to
:05:37. > :05:39.Boeing and SpaceX in order to develop their human spaceflight
:05:40. > :05:42.capability. If all goes to plan, NASA will have rockets by the end of

:05:46. > :05:48.one inch, 20 megapixel sensor, more normally found in its dedicated
:05:49. > :05:51.camera.s Unveiled at a trade show in Cologne, the extra optical heft
:05:52. > :05:53.should improve sensitivity in low light and allow the phone it to
:05:54. > :05:57.shoot ultra`high`definition video. Large lens phone cameras seem to be
:05:58. > :06:00.something of a trend at the moment. It is a programmer in`joke that has
:06:01. > :06:03.become a surprise gaming hit. Goat Simulator is trotting off PC and
:06:04. > :06:06.going to Android and iOS devices. It is a third`person or third`goat
:06:07. > :06:09.adventure which allows people to take their goat to the fair or ride
:06:10. > :06:12.a bike. It has intentionally buggy sections and rubbish controls.
:06:13. > :06:15.Now, if you own a home cinema system, the chances are that you
:06:16. > :06:18.have not been to the actual cinema in quite a while. One way that movie
:06:19. > :06:22.theatres are trying to lure audiences back is with 3`D which
:06:23. > :06:25.seems to work better in a controlled space than in a home environment.
:06:26. > :06:29.The problem is that 3`D is not as realistic or as comfortable to watch
:06:30. > :06:32.as perhaps it could be. Now, the movie industry is looking to
:06:33. > :06:35.introduce a new breed of 3`D. We sent Dan Simmons to Amsterdam to
:06:36. > :06:45.witness the first screening of a film made with the new technology.
:06:46. > :06:49.The number of cinema``goers choosing the 3`D version of a film has
:06:50. > :07:00.dropped by a third in the last four years. People are falling out of
:07:01. > :07:04.love with 3`D. The novelty has worn off. They are not bright enough.
:07:05. > :07:07.They are too dim. You can only hear the movie. You know how your mother
:07:08. > :07:11.said, "Don't read in the dark"? It is not going to be a comfortable
:07:12. > :07:15.experience. Now that we can show it at this proper light level, it is a
:07:16. > :07:18.shot in the arm for the format. This is the world's first screening of a
:07:19. > :07:20.full`length movies using the 6P system. We project two images
:07:21. > :07:24.simultaneously for the left and right eyes. The whole idea is we do
:07:25. > :07:27.not have to flash between the two. It is a better and more persistent
:07:28. > :07:30.vision. Therefore, the 3`D looks more natural. We don't go through
:07:31. > :07:34.life alternating our eyes. We go through life with both eyes open and
:07:35. > :07:42.we see both offset images at the same time. These are not servers.
:07:43. > :07:51.They are laser power units, pumping out up to 100,000 beams of light
:07:52. > :07:53.down fibre`optic to two projectors. Basically put, each projector uses a
:07:54. > :08:01.different mix of colours of wavelengths to send the same picture
:08:02. > :08:05.to each eye. Using these classes, they only allow certain wavelengths
:08:06. > :08:09.of light through. The left eye can only see what is coming out of our
:08:10. > :08:13.projector, the right, what is coming out of this. The important thing is
:08:14. > :08:17.that it has not been possible in the past to get the whole project worth
:08:18. > :08:25.of light into each eye at the same time. Now we can and that replicates
:08:26. > :08:28.how we see. We are using a system called colour separation based 3`D
:08:29. > :08:32.which is different from 99% of cinemas which use polarisation
:08:33. > :08:36.schemes. That system needs something in front of the projector or inside
:08:37. > :08:40.the projector to polarise the light. That absorbs a lot of light. With a
:08:41. > :08:42.spectral separation or a colour`separation based technique,
:08:43. > :08:48.using lasers, we can generate the light right from the source at the
:08:49. > :08:52.correct wavelength. We eliminate the filter stage. The only thing between
:08:53. > :09:02.you and the image or you and the projector are the glasses. Finally,
:09:03. > :09:07.we have a technology solution to make 3D as bright as 2`D. The new
:09:08. > :09:10.system is bright enough to do away with the traditional silver screen,
:09:11. > :09:15.which can create hotspots of brightness, depending on where we
:09:16. > :09:19.st. The nice part about having a flat map screen is that it basically
:09:20. > :09:25.looks the same across the board for people sitting on the front row, the
:09:26. > :09:28.side row or the back row. That at least allows everybody to see the
:09:29. > :09:38.movie the way the filmmaker wanted them to when he made it. This is
:09:39. > :09:41.certainly one of the best 3D experiences I've had. I have to say,
:09:42. > :09:46.the glasses are not just reflected on this site but this side as well,
:09:47. > :09:49.so you do get a little bit of reflection when you look through the
:09:50. > :09:59.lenses but it is crisp and clear and the colours are brilliant. Could it
:10:00. > :10:00.be the saviour of 3D film? I think it's a fundamental piece to continue
:10:01. > :10:31.to support that format. ROAR. It turns out that we are celebrating
:10:32. > :10:35.something, because this is click episode number 750. The BBC has
:10:36. > :10:41.finally decided to give us our own YouTube channel. Yes, I know, we
:10:42. > :10:46.have been asking for it for quite a few years, and if I am honest I
:10:47. > :10:51.think they came to the decision relatively quickly. Anyway, we have
:10:52. > :11:00.dusted off our original YouTube trailer, and I think it still works.
:11:01. > :11:07.This radio controlled helicopter can not only fly itself, but it can also
:11:08. > :11:13.being video imagery straight onto the information superhighway. It is
:11:14. > :11:23.the smart phone skirt tailored from 80 smartphones. Electrically powered
:11:24. > :11:25.unicycle for perambulation. It beams that information based on my
:11:26. > :11:36.location, allowing me to record whatever I want. It can enhance
:11:37. > :11:46.reality with extra information. Click. Tomorrow's world, today.
:11:47. > :11:55.Anyway, you can subscribe to the channel at YouTube .com/BBC click.
:11:56. > :12:05.Enjoy that, thank you very much for watching. We will see you next time.
