TechFest 2011: Applied Sciences Group: Smart Interactive Displays
Author: Troy Barnes
Our research shows: Steerable AutoStereo 3-D Display: We use a special, flat optical lens (Wedge) behind an LCD monitor to direct a narrow beam of light into each of a viewer’s eyes. By using a Kinect head tracker, the user’s relation to the display is tracked, and thereby, the prototype is able to steer that narrow beam to the user. The combination creates a 3-D image that is steered to the viewer without the need for glasses or holding your head in place. Steerable Multiview Display: The same optical system used in the 3-D system, Wedge behind an LCD, is used to steer two separate images to two separate people rather than two separate eyes, as in the 3-D case. Using a Kinect head tracker, we find and track multiple viewers and send each viewer his or her own unique image. Therefore, two people can be looking at the same display but see two completely different images. If the two users switch positions, the same image continuously is steered toward them. Retro-Reflective Air-Gesture Display: Sometimes, it’s better to control with gestures than buttons. Using a retro-reflective screen and a camera close to the projector makes all objects cast a shadow, regardless of their color. This makes it easy to apply computer-vision algorithms to sense above-screen gestures that can be used for control, navigation, and many other applications. A display that can see: Using the flat Wedge optic in camera mode behind a special, transparent organic-light-emitting-diode display, we can …

He reminds me of Walter’s son in Breaking Bad.

I’m surprised at the amount of people that got lead to this video cause of Joe Rogan’s podcast. Shits beautiful.

“…Writing the words to a sermon that no one will hear, no one comes near…”
Redban!
What this has taught me is that we’re one step closer to actually replicating Tony Stark’s garage console from Iron Man (2008)
nice lisp
I though apple had trademarked “magical”
I actually clapped. Bravo!
I read the title as “Aperture Science” need sleep…
Awesome it’s just like the stuff in the future vision video by Microsoft
Thanks Redban!
thumbs up if you like chesse
@pacynad redban!!!!!
Hmm…on the last part I noticed when he moved closer, yes it gives him a bigger view of the “room” but it does so by zooming out. When he moved away it gave a smaller view of the “room” but did so by zooming in. That’s going to need to change in order for it to truly be realistic.
Next step will be AI that can tell the difference between a speakers common hand gestures and gestures meant for the movement of the image.
He’s fighting a little lisp right there
Is his tongue numb? ths thsss
wow…finally a cure or screenhopping!
