Such seamlessness presages a fast-approaching era in which the computer as an object disappears, but digital technologies become pervasive in our everyday surroundings.
I think that the term is not only excellent PR, but also faithfully describes what happens: an object disappears in the sense that it turns into unstructured 'dust', and distant 'dust' acquires the exact (and possibly unknown) structure of the object.
An invisibility cloak reported a couple of years ago, for example, makes an object disappear by redirecting light around it.
D-Link states that the NVR will work with most currently-available cameras, and are motion activated, and use a differential technology to allow you to look for the point when an object disappears, or when motion is detected.
Scientists now think that dolphins were flummoxed in earlier studies by the idea of an object disappearing into a container – a scenario that almost never occurs in the wild.
The army reportedly aimed one of its drones in a UFO's direction, but the object disappeared.
In one case observations were too limited to let them do so before the object disappeared.
When the object disappeared from the field of view in the 717th frame and showed up again in the 746th, all the four PF-based algorithms recovered from loss, but, still, the proposed tracker performed a little better.
After several minutes, the mysterious object disappeared, but not before the teen captured the ring on her iPhone.
In the occluded view condition the moving object disappeared from view 500 milliseconds before its arrival at the contact point as shown in Figure 1.
Perhaps if dogs had received more trials in each condition (Doré et al. 1996 administered 32 trials per condition while we administered only four), they may have developed a strategy based on searching the last location where they saw the object disappear.
