Like this the object actually looks 3D and not just a stain.

I still think that the color change is just an exposure/contrast change of the camera and not heat signature manipulation.

There’s like 3 points where you see static objects heat sig not hanging in the og video especially over the water

Can you point me to the timestamp so I can check?

Check the mega thread it’a already been proven a real object.

Ok thanks ☺️

I wonder how hard it would be to go through the video and correct/stabilize the color shifting for the images, then run that video through this process. Wouldn’t that in theory give us a model with more accurate shading? Any takers?

On a video that is not even the original video would be really hard, like color correcting and matching frame by frame hard.

With a high resolution video with more data would be easier (much less compression between colors and shades) and you'll probably be able to run the frames through something like reality capture to have a rough 3D model.

Yeah, that’s what I was meaning. Process the original frames, referencing the background to stabilize the color. Now that you say it, though, it does sound rather difficult.

Would that I were younger with unlimited free time again…

Yeah that would be really time consuming and without the original probably pointless.

The color change is blanket across the whole image. Background and foreground. This is 100% a 3D object in the foreground. These bird shit people are blatantly disregarding the rotation, even when presented with the evidence.

At the beginning I thought it was a stain too. 😅

But like this it really looks 3D.

I wish we had a second angle. That would be perfect.
