[edit] question about processing the noise data

'processes the noise data to make it as random as possible': what on earth does that mean!? Surely processed random data is less random? Interesting philosophical question; feel free to discuss... 86.4.178.102

The data read from the webcam contains "both structured data and chaotic noise", and is run through a "Digital Blender" that "destroys the structured data portion of the digital snapshot and produces uniformly distributed random data."
