Similar to Made of Japan, but it comes with moving images. Well, if you are my student in the Microwave‘s “Procedural Animation” workshop or SCM‘s “Image Processing and AR”, you have made this with Processing with exactly the same mouse interaction. This one, Eye-Project, with flash. It looks very nice!
有點兒跟Made of Japan相似, 但Eye-Project今次有Moving Images/Video. 如果你之前上過我Microwave教授的”Procedural Animation” workshop 或者SCM的 “Image Processing and AR”, 上課時你們都做過類似的練習了. 但你們用的是Processing, 人家用的是Flash. 這個Eye-Project看上去還蠻酷呢.

You have seen Microsoft’s Surface, amazed with the possibilities, but we still love Jeff Han: Low Cost FTIR. (Surface is also FTIR). That’s why you see my group of student (BScCM, SIG MoCap) research and developing their own Multitouch hardware and interface. Remember, Surface has limited on 52 touch points, we have no limitation. Crazy student Jason make his own tracking blob library and give up other existing library. Wonderful team with Ashley, Don, Cinny working very hard for few overnights on hardware and …

I was teaching in the class “Microcontroller and Embedded system“. In the first 3 lesson, we use LEGO Mindstorm as a warm up. We given the application provided by LEGO and use JAVA with eclipse to write the RCX. (We are still using Mindstorm 2.0, but will use 3.0 with bluetooth one next time I do the class!) The second, or the main focus of this class is Arduino. We use Arduino IDE to write Arduino. Student need to finish the tasks in every class. From analog to digital, complex …

I have posted “Multitouch fever” where has a link from sport4minus.de who was producing multiouch table and open out the whole progress. Today we can see a very fine-developed final product loopArenaMTC which is Jens wunderling, the webmaster, crewed with MTC.

The interface is programmed in Processing 0091 using the proMidi Library. But it seems to me that the version in the video is kind of openSoundControl (from the page). And it mentioned it is using libavg, a graphic library, do the tracking.

Recently the whole HCI community or even media art community are very keen on inventing, duplicating or copying the Multitouch interface, with different shape, form or application. M$soft show you their power of money and technology: Microsoft Surface.
According to the reserach page of Surface, it is based on the research “Play Anywhere“. Honestly, I am impressed by concept of Play anywhere, not the technology. (sure many people even students can make the similar thing easily) After the over-heat trend of Jeff Han’s FTIR Multitouch and his great presentation on TED, …
