This weekend has been quite the awesome weekend. 3ric brought a high speed camera (7000 frames per second at full resolution) and we made a few videos together. I've uploaded a couple of videos. Here's a high speed video of me using mentholated eye drops. And here's what happens when Eric, 3ric, Kelly and I get soy milk, a belt and a high speed camera. Go Vegan. Or something.

For the high speed video of soy milk on youtube:

I'm happy to report that Joe Grand, Chris Tarnovsky and I successfully gave our talk at Black Hat today. Our slides and code are online now and they're pretty informative.

We spent some time looking at various metering systems from around the world. We did so by acquiring meters on eBay and reversing them. It was a lot of fun. Our case study focused on San Francisco and we showed it was pretty badly broken.

Here's a screen capture of the silicon die analysis:



And here's the proof that we've been able to emulate their broken system:



We can't thank the EFF enough. They're the best.
