It was only a matter of time: With Google still looking for The Next Big Thing — and Facebook’s acquisition of Oculus VR, Sony’s Project Morpheus, and many other companies and startups taking a fresh look at VR over the last couple of years — it was forced to finally wade in. The target of Google’s affection is a startup called Magic Leap, a secretive company that is developing some kind of ‘cinematic reality’ headset, which uses a ‘digital light field’ to project ultra-realistic images into your eyeballs. MIT’s ‘Kinect of the future’ can track you through walls October 18, 2013 at 9:33 amResearchers from MIT have unveiled a new form of motion tracking that uses a three-point system to follow a person’s position, even through a totally opaque wall.
arx anima | 3D animationstudio | vienna | austria SMARTTECH 3D Robotized – SMARTTECH 3D Optical Innovation SMARTTECH 3D Robotized connects dedicated robot and scanning head It is a fully automated solution for non-contact digitizing and quality control of small and medium-sized objects. The device uses the latest technology of optical non-contact 3D scanning and advanced industrial robot for fully automated 3D measurement, allowing for intuitive programming plans for measuring objects with different shapes and sizes. SMARTTECH 3D Robotized, is a modern non-contact version of the coordinate measuring machine which allows efficient measurements of the objects with complex shapes, automatic test reports, and above all, giving the ability to quickly control 100% of the measured surface. SMARTTECH 3D Robotized while reducing the role of a man in the measurement process offers: – Precise measurement and a high quality of the obtained data – The ability to perform automatic analysis of deviations and trends – high safety level achieved by separating the operator from the robot arm Measuring head:
Magic Leap We know what you're thinking: "Who the heck are we? What is this all about? Why aren't you saying more?" So what is Magic Leap? Magic Leap is an idea. An idea that computing should be shaped and forged to work for us: our life, our physiology, our connected relationships. It's an idea based in the belief that people should not have to choose between technology or safety, technology or privacy, the virtual world or the real world. This belief was born from two simple observations: That current technologies we use to access the digital world limit, or even take us away, from the real world. With our founding principles our team dug deep into the physics of the visual world, and dug deep into the physics and processes of our visual and sensory perception. In time, we began adding a number of other technologies to our Digital Lightfield: hardware, software, sensors, core processors, and a few things that just need to remain a mystery. It is all coming together in a pretty awesome way.
Fuboss Microsoft's Hololens – what do virtual reality developers think? | Technology When Microsoft unveiled Windows 10 last Wednesday, the company had something else to show the assembled press – just in case a new operating system wasn’t exciting enough. This was the Hololens, a stand-alone augmented reality heardset, capable of projecting computer generated objected into your real-world environment. Look through its futuristic screen, and you may see a dinosaur on your coffee table, or a monster on your sofa. The device seemingly uses an array of motion senses, as well as a Kinect-style camera so that it knows where the wearer is in the room, and can also recognise objects. Imagine, for example, a horror game where a zombie could crash through your own living room window. So what do seasoned virtual reality developers make of the new technology? Hrafn Thorisson, CEO, Aldin Dynamics For a prototype it certainly seems like they’ve done a very good job on producing the illusion of a solid object appearing before you — and that’s really exciting.
