I think I need a zoom and enhance on this repost, it's leaking pixles.

Zoom and enhance cliche *ding* also this thing is ancient

Such solid evidence. Bad guy goes straight to jail. Trial unnecessary.

I remember reading that prosecutors hate CSI because juries have come to expect that level of detail in the evidence presented.

How did they even solve crimes back in the olden days when video was complete shit

Does Miami get a lot of rain or should I be suspicious of the fact that the roads is always wet in CSI: Miami? I know they love reflections.
Metalhead10
Film/TV productions wet roads for continuity proposes, if it rains for a minute theres a jarring look, they also have to adjust the camera
IDanceToDisneySongs
Directors like the way wet roads look too.
Drewcifer70
It rains EVERY DAY in FL. Not long, just a light shower. Then it becomes so humid people rain sweat, thereby keeping the roads looking wet.
CheckYoMeat
This is fact. - 6yr Ridian
gernjer
Can't say about Miami, but in central FL in summer, we get biblically violent storms daily at 3:15pm.
NurseryRhymeNightmares
South Florida too. Roughly 4pm. Every single day.
SteveZesu
I fucking saw one where they caught the murder confession by analyzing a seashell because seashells retain all sounds forever.
ad0ptdontshop
hahahaha
DoomSkuller
Which was debunked long ago anyway, all seashells do is echo all the sounds of your current environment
justanotherdescendingangel
The worst part of this show is the effect it has on juries. I think it is called the CSI effect were people thing half this crap is real.

CyborgScribe
Says research shows the "effect" may not even be real
dsfdvx
"However, more recent research suggests these modern TV shows do have a misleading influence on public perceptions , and juror behavior"
CyborgScribe
If the body of research is divided I'm not gonna say I'm convinced. As a non-CSI watcher I also don't know much about what exactly...
CyborgScribe
...the show might mislead people on other than photo enhancement which is a joke I have seen and something my sister complains of.
peanutbutterandham
Also remember hearing about CSI training courses getting flooded with more applicants, & then drop out rates being ridiculously high
zamielvanweber
I saw a lawyer dismiss prospective jurors for cause because they were fans of Crime Drama Shows.

Ever had a false positive on a fingerprint match? Like run a fingerprint found at a crime scene but matches someone who's still in prison?
NeverEndingStoryMachine
I haven't. My case load is mostly sex cases so it doesn't involve many cases which would involve finger prints.
Bombpier
God i hate that show
NeverEndingStoryMachine
CSI? It's whatever. I don't hate it. I just hate that people think that stuff is real.
QuietJack
I think in one of the last Las Vegas episodes they pulled audio from a silent videotape by...
GreaterDog
You could pull that off if the height of vibration was bigger than a pixel and the framerate was >200 Hz
goodisunpopular
No, the biggest bs audio evidence find was the ceramic vase that got yelled at. Mythbusters even did an episode to show how bs it was.
GrantLeavitt
I dunnl, my vase seems pretty upset with me yelling at it.

The new Mcguyver had them bypass logic bombs by smashing the hardrive with a hammer. I was mildly irritated.

Holy shit! That's incredible!
ScotChatterson
They didn't really have to put the camera behind the glass, but that video was awesome.
c5noone
that's really crazy and impressive. I cant imagine what we will be able to do in 100 years.
QuietJack
...looking at how the plants microscopically vibrated when the bad guys spoke near them.
swisstraeng
you can. But not even with high speed cameras.
Drarra
Oh Science can do everything... In Fringe, the beings from the future could listen what had been spoken in past with a device on a glasspane

Same in 'Eagle Eye'. Could be done with special tech? More amount of info in 640*480 pxls *25frame than 1*1 pixels * 307.200 sampling rate.

That's somewhat realistic. There's a TED talk about it. It was really amazing.

CorneliusCornwall
As one does
DefinitelyNotCera
Actually... This tech exists. Look up the YouTube clip of the team using camera footage alone to recreate sound based on vibrations.
GrantLeavitt
Well, sound is air molecules vibrating, sooo.
DefinitelyNotCera
Yeah, but you don't typically *see* sound. And even if you do (vibrating guitar strings) you can't know the sound from the sight.
CyberCyndicate
There’s a kid at MIT pulling audio from a bag of chips - it’s works. Source: I’m an engineer

sauce, please?!
CyberCyndicate
I heard it on the Invisibilia podcast I believe
lunasabacus
That's with a high quality camera under controlled conditions. Regular cctv is nowhere close to matching that.

http://news.mit.edu/2014/algorithm-recovers-speech-from-vibrations-0804 In other experiments, however, they used an ordinary digital camera

I haven't even watched an episode in years and just reading about it really pisses me off.

Oh to have your problems.

Um EXCUSE YOU it was the sticks vibrating against the wet clay as it was turned!! I mean it's just as scientifically invalid, but still.

IwentLookingForWhatTheBiggestIdiotHasToSayAndHereYouAre
vibrations stored in glass yes. not in grass
puddin151
yeah but they used a high speed camera not a shitty security camera with a total of about 5 pixels
ChiLLeCheeze
But wait, aren't all the cameras in CSI extremely expensive, especially when you can enhance pictures so clearly.
AlexDuos
Let's not forget adobe can fully synthesize voices now, I wouldn't put anything past them... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MAKa7PhUWqM
PatrickPettibone
This is pretty terrifying technology
HardOfHearingLeopard
That's actually pretty impressive however unlikely to be recreated in the show.
IwentLookingForWhatTheBiggestIdiotHasToSayAndHereYouAre
mostly because it's completely different. theyve been recording audio that way on wax for like 1000 years (hyperbole). saying you can>
justherefortheshitposting
Yeah, but did they use shitty low-quality security cam footage as the base?
DragonsLoveTacosButHateSpicySalsa
Of course! They can just use the "enhance" feature to get a higher resolution. ;-)
TheMightyElk
You should watch scorpion. My wife told me it was good.. I made it 6 minutes pre rant

oh dear god that show....holy fuck, the liberties they take with physics and engineering.....fuuuuuck, it makes me angry thinking about it

I'm a mech. engineer and that show makes me irrationally mad. I watch it because my wife enjoys it.
imnotlostinlifeijustdonthaveanywheretogo
I watched the first episode and thought that's so fucking stupid it'll never get a second season but then it did, but shows like firefly...
funfight22
I really liked the first couple episodes, then it went from stretching the truth for good tv, to ripping it apart
Alavar
And those people are suppose to be geniuses too lol
IwentLookingForWhatTheBiggestIdiotHasToSayAndHereYouAre
yeah that was pretty much my main problem with the show. if they had been portrayed as con-men who were really smart then you could laugh>
Mistruths
It's only good if you recognize, but don't understand, jargon.
dangermint
Hollywood just doesn't know how to do smart people. They portray them as "magic retards" who, despite not grasping reality, (1/2)

can magically solve any problem. (2/2)
bloodlustunicorn
As someone who's been a network admin, data recovery tech, IT consultant, and electrical engineering major, I absolutely loathe that show.

Yeah... I.t. guy here. It's horrendous .
