Year in review
From opening the new Urban Arts Space in downtown Columbus to continuing award-winning work in off-campus neighborhoods, Ohio State accomplished a lot in 2008.
Take a look at the stories that shaped the year.
Smart surveillance
 |
 |
Traditional security cameras cover so little ground that some say they have a "soda straw" view of the world. Engineering Professor Jim Davis sees a better way:
a networked system of “smart” video cameras that can observe a wide area quickly and efficiently, with much of the work being done by computers.
Find out how Davis' new system works and how it might be used.

energy specialist Randall Reeder has energy-saving tips that can help reduce heating bills.
