London-based startup Move AI uses an innovative motion capture system to work without any sensors at all.

To transfer yourself to the virtual world, it is enough to have an iPhone - recently an application with a neural network inside was released in the App Store, which will turn the recorded video into a cool animation. True, to capture you will have to get from 2 to 6 iPhones.

Brutal dinosaurs with spiked armor screamed like parrots.

It seems that powerful armored and spiked dinosaurs roared or growled. In fact, some of them sang like birds. Japanese scientists came to such conclusions after analyzing the fossils of the larynx of an ankylosaurus that lived on Earth 72-84 million years ago. Most likely, the ankylosaurus made sounds similar to the singing of parrots. But they were more powerful and much more "explosive". Such vocalization helped reptiles communicate with each other.

A rare giant jellyfish was filmed in Antarctica.

She looks like an alien creature and hides in the depths. In Antarctic waters, underwater vehicles managed to photograph three giant transparent jellyfish - Stygiomedusa gigantea. They were captured at a depth of 80-280 meters, although these creatures usually prefer a depth of about a kilometer. It is not yet known why they inhabit the relatively shallow waters around Antarctica. The length of the tentacles of the jellyfish is ten meters, the diameter of the bell is one meter. S. gigantea live in all oceans except the Arctic.

Venus may be a "soft" planet that regenerates its surface thanks to volcanoes.

Venus has no tectonic plates, so the question of what processes form its surface has long occupied planetary scientists. A new study has shown that the so-called "crowns" are located where the planet's lithosphere is thinnest and most active. In this way, Venus opens a window into the past, helping to better understand what the Earth might have looked like more than 2.5 billion years ago. According to forecasts, the planet will form tectonic plates only in the distant future.
