Anyone else catch this last month? Seems to have slipped by... maybe because the major application is for encrypting your porn.

hahahaha. "One of the most promising applications for such autonomous molecular computers would be the encryption of images. Images could be encrypted on a chip containing the equivalent of 41 million pixels so that deciphering them would be impossible to those without access to a secret key comprised of several short DNA molecules and several enzymes. " If this is the most promising application for such a machine then we should look for new applications. It seems like quite a bit of trouble to scramble an image.

Also, current consumer cameras are optic not pixel limited. Posted by: brette at April 11, 2005 9:45 AM |
