Re: Duh

Getting computers to extract and measure features smaller than the resolution element, or below the noise floor is what we have been doing with them for 40years. Of course smaller than a pixel AND below the noise floor is trickier but with good data it is easy.

We are currently taking medical images (CT and MRI) with only 1/10 the resolution and processing it to get the same image as the full res scan - but with a fraction of the patient scan time and dose.
