[Video] HoloDesk - Direct 3D Interactions

HoloDesk is a novel interactive system combining an optical
see through display and Kinect camera to create the illusion
that users are directly interacting with 3D graphics. A virtual
image of a 3D scene is rendered through a half silvered mir-
ror and spatially aligned with the real-world for the viewer.
Users easily reach into an interaction volume displaying the
virtual image. This allows the user to literally get their hands
into the virtual display. A novel real-time algorithm for rep-
resenting hands and other physical objects, which are sensed
by the Kinect inside this volume, allows physically realistic
interaction between real and virtual 3D objects.

[Video] HOLY *HIT! Ultimate Battlefield 3 Simulator

This is a world first. A unique FPS simulator that turns gaming into reality as you move, aim, fire and get shot within a 360-degree immersive environment.

Using a pre-release copy of Battlefield 3 and a team of top technology experts from across Europe we've built a truly one of a kind simulator.


Centred on the world's first, portable omni-directional treadmill (designed by Swedish company MSE Weibull) the simulator lets you control the movements of a Battlefield 3 character with your own body. Other key technology employed includes: an Igloo Vision projection dome; 12 paintball markers that allow the player, in real time, to feel the enemy gunfire experienced in the game; a wireless gun system; ambient LED lighting; and an Xbox Kinect camera hack.

Kratos traversed the Desert of Souls, bested the deadly traps of Pandora's Temple and then TOTALLY wasted Ares to become God of War... but why stop there? If you've wondered how Kratos's journey SHOULD have ended, watch this and realize it actually never should have in the first place!

Tetris Pattern - Luigi
People have been asking me for months to do the Luigi build (matching up with my original Super Mario Tetris build). Well, I finally mustered up the motivation to do it, so without further ado, here it is.
