When you pull out your smartphone to take a picture of a magical sunset or a loved one’s smile, your camera freezes what you see in a moment in time forever. Even though a camera lens can capture potent colors, textures, and remarkable details in one click, it will always fall short to the remarkable processing performance of a human eye.

Humans and animals have the ability to not only see, but to perceive. Our eyes–or rather our retinae–are processing information about our surroundings in real-time, and sending signals back to our brain. Through cameras, robots are able to capture events happening around them like us, but they haven’t been able to perceive like we do–until now. The latest ISI research is now available on biorxiv, IRIS: Integrated Retinal Functionality in Image Sensorsbridges this gap and makes retina-inspired computer vision a tangible reality.

Geno Smith and the Seattle Seahawks (1-2) travel east to take on Jared Goff and the Detroit Lions (1-2) in a NFL Week 4 matchup at Ford Field on Sunday. Both teams are looking to bounce back from tough Week 3 losses. The Seahawks fell short at home, losing 27-23 to the Atlanta Falcons, while the Lions lost 28-24 to the Minnesota Vikings.

HONOLULU – Casey K. Umetsu, Sr., age 40, of Honolulu, Hawaii, pleaded guilty today before United States District Judge Jill A. Otake to sabotaging his former employer’s computer network. Sentencing is set for January 19, 2023.

According to court documents and information presented in court, Umetsu worked as an information technology professional for a prominent Hawaii-based financial company between 2017 and 2019. In that role, Umetsu was responsible for administering the company’s computer network and assisting other employees with computer and technology problems. As part of his guilty plea, Umetsu admitted that, shortly after severing all ties with the company, he accessed a website the company used to manage its internet domain. After using his former employer’s credentials to access the company’s configuration settings on that website, Umetsu made numerous changes, including purposefully misdirecting web and email traffic to computers unaffiliated with the company, thereby incapacitating the company’s web presence

Sophia Mendoza’s interest in technology integration in education started as a 3rd grader in the Los Angeles Unified School District.

Her teacher brought in a TRS-80, a desktop microcomputer, and let students play with it. It was Mendoza’s first experience with programming.

Now, as LAUSD’s Instructional Technology Initiative director, ensuring every student has access to computer science education is one of her biggest priorities.

“We know that every job of today and the future will require some knowledge of computer science education,” said Mendoza, who has been an educator at LAUSD for 25 years and is also a board member of the International Society for Technology in Education.

Here’s what Mendoza had to say in a Zoom conversation with Education Week about LAUSD’s technology use, how schools can sustain innovative digital learning, and what her priorities are for this school year.

Millions of dollars are being put into building and improving broadband infrastructure in rural Wisconsin.

But what good is having internet if you can’t afford it or even know how to access and best use it.

Christopher Stark calls them the three A’s of broadband.

“Access, affordability, and adoption. And this grant is really for adoption,” said Stark.

Stark is the Digital Equity Outreach Specialist for the University of Wisconsin-Extension.

He wrote the $375,320 grant the Forest County Broadband Committee received to hire, train, and support a digital navigator.

This person will be responsible for traveling around the county and teaching people how to use various digital devices.

“A lot of trial and error throughout the country right now has found out you can give people digital devices, but in many cases, they don’t know how to use them,” said Stark. “They go unused, but we have to be proactive
