Isaac Luy 3D vision the next stage

Ok... we finished with the research, the presentations and the showing of our examples in the Multimedia Pioneering class............ I think the next thing I would like to try is to bring the same technology tha Johnny Lee is using with the Wii to Flash, and in theory it shouldn't be difficult, here are some of the steps we'll need to follow: 1. Find or create the application for face tracking inside of Flash. I know there… Continue

Isaac Luy Computer 3D - tricking the eye research

It's been a while since my last blog on the 3D project... but I rather write about stuff that matters than just blogging "for fun" A couple of days ago I had a talk with Song at the Visualization Design Institute in Sheridan College (he has been of great help for all of us at the 3DVision Group)... and talking a bit about trying to implement the Wii head tracking project in Flash using the head tracking API, he made me realize that 3D in a 2D screen is a lot about implementing little tricks to… Continue

Isaac Luy Back to the birds - Goose

Ok... so this time we are going for the multi touch in Flash! Sounds exciting right?.... well, to be honest this was kind of a disappointment... First because it took us a couple of weeks just to get it running! Goose uses Robin (another of the flash feathers) to run. Robin it self is a pretty cool application... is a flash server for multiuser created in PHP... Check out the Robin! We had a lot of problems with the configuration of… Continue

Isaac Luy Exploring other 3D vision alternatives

Just a quick note: last Tuesday I went with my fellow classmates to the VDI department in Sheridan to meet with a guy named Song. As we got there we were greeted by this nice asian guy that welcomed us into their lab. He seems really excited about the whole 3D vision experiments that have existed for a while now... he talked to us for about an hour about the different techniques, the different lenses, things that you have to take into consideration, holograms, he gave us some names and resources… Continue

Youness Twitter application tutorial and source code from Sony Ericsson!
