Such content should be definitely the introduction part of Fourier Transform mathematical course. This will definitely increase the level of participation and understanding of students knowing that they are starting to study something that has much more practical implementation and not just some boring theoretical thing.

Thank you. Your videos are helping me a lot. I gave me a break of telecommunication engineering course last year, and now I’m back, I’m trying to get all definitions and understandings back again. You teach in a so easy way, it’s amazing.

The Fourier Transform is also important in crystal structure solution, where one tries to obtain the atomic positions from a set of diffraction patterns. This is not necessarily a part of everyone's typical day, but it is for crystallographer's. And is also quite important since many modern inventions rely on knowing the internal symmetries of the crystals comprising them (pharmaceutics, energy, electronics). The Fourier Transform really is one of the greatest and widely used tools.

Sir it's a nice video. These topics sometimes get too abstract to comprehend and it's very valuable to give some concrete real-world examples. Highly appreciated!
