Big Brother wants to see you more often.

Only the one, and it'll be gone soon.

 

Are you being lasered then?

 

Haven't seen that film in years.

 

The index numbers, timestamp & camera ID only have to be archived for
future reference, unless you want to use the data in real-time, which
doesn't seem to be the idea at first glance.

I take Dr. Z's point about camera quality though. Still, image
enhancement may help here.

The actual data would only need to consist of a camera ID, say four
bytes, a byte per digit of the plate plus a couple of spares for
future changes, say 10 bytes, and a timestamp, say six bytes. Total 20
bytes plus transmission overheads. These could be reduced - including
losing camera ID per plate - by buffering larger blocks of data and of
course it could be compressed. The example I gave assumes largely
ASCII coding - not the most efficient either.

**** no.

The Orthoptist has discharged me now she's determined what strength of
prism is needed in each lens. 7.5 in each side, which is a bit stronger
than the 3 in each I had 2 years ago

 

Naah. Other from that era that spring to mind include multiclac,
RBase, err, actually, I seem to have managed to erase my memory beyond
those, which is probably not a bad thing.

Christ, do you need a counterweight on the back of your head for those
lenses?

 

Nah. Rolodex.

 

Orthoptist?

Sounds keen to me ;-)

That made me chortle. Those thick bungees that sporty types wear to
hold their specs on - one of them, with the inevitable clumsy knot in
the middle of it to give the bungee some pre-tension - with a fishing
weight tied to it. That should do the job, but might preclude wearing
crash helmets when spectacled up. Could be a bit dodgy when turning
the head rapidly or nodding vigorously, too.

I suppose Loz dould always superglue a D-ring to the back of his lid,
then attach a spring to the collar of his leathers to replace the
fishing weight when riding.
