Online shoppers may be able to buy clothes in their pajamas, but they never know just how well those purchases will actually fit. That problem may soon be history — thanks to a breakthrough piece of augmented reality technology from Bodymetrics. The company has partnered with PrimeSense on a 3D body-mapping product to be revealed this week at CES 2012. The product uses PrimeSense 3D sensors, much like those used for Microsoft Kinect, to scan a user's height and waist size, as well as the other shapes and curves that make a body unique. After creating an account, users will be able to virtually try on clothes from partner retailers to get a true sense of how potential purchases fit.

The 3D body-mapping will be available for preview at CES, but Bodymetrics is still fine-tuning its business model — including its final price, which the company said will be approximately $150. However, Bodymetrics believes its 3D figure-reader built on PrimeSense technology is the game-changer.

Google+ Hangouts Adds Screen Sharing, Google Docs Collaboration, and More. Stubbornness Increases the More People Tell You You’re Wrong | Wired Science. By Duncan Geere, Wired UK A group of psychologists working at HP’s Social Computing Research Group has found that humans are more likely to change their minds when fewer, rather than more, people disagree with them. [partner id="wireduk" align="right"]The team conducted an experiment asking several hundred people to choose between two pieces of furniture. After a varying amount of time, they were asked to choose again between the items, but told that a certain number of other people had preferred the opposite item. The results showed that a small amount of social pressure to reverse an opinion was far more effective in getting people to change their minds than if the pressure was much greater. When an overwhelming number of people were shown as having made a different choice, people tended to stick with their original selections.

There are two conflicting theories of social influence at work here. The next step for the team is to bring quality into the equation. Image: HP See Also: Icon Search Engine | Iconfinder.

Foursquare wins major victory with death of Facebook Places. While Facebook was rolling out some changes to its privacy policies today, the company also quietly announced it was killing off the Foursquare-like Places function inside of its mobile app.

The Facebook Places feature was unveiled a year ago and let users “check-in” to various locations. Many saw this as a serious threat to other social location services like Foursquare and Gowalla because Facebook has an incredible number of users. But by October you could already see that the feature wasn’t catching on, with only 6% of Facebook users trying the service. As an alternative to the Places feature, Facebook will optionally add a location to status updates or pictures. But adding a location to a status is clearly not the same as checking in and getting the benefits of knowing where your friends are. Foursquare has to be happy about this, though the company declined to say anything about the death of Places. Personally, I never used Places because I already had Foursquare for check-ins.
