A new method is proposed for the construction of signed distance function by geometrically projecting interface topology onto the Cartesian grid using a multi-level projection framework.
Of course, I doubt your kitchen is naturally dark enough to support a projected interface like this one, but they'll figure something out.
We show that this approach provides accurate representation of the projected interface and its topology on the Cartesian grid, including the distance from the interface and the interface normal and curvature.
The projected interface can be in the form of either a connected set of marker particles that evolve with Lagrangian advection, or a discrete set of points associated with an implicit interface that evolves with the advection of a scalar function.
Once the artists code the bots, the project interface then becomes completely collaborative with both viewers who are physically in the space and viewers tuned in from 9to5's public streaming site.
Projected interfaces offer additional distinct advantages over static guides and even traditional or augmented reality mobile applications.
Combine the gestures with tactile feedback and projected interfaces and you've got the beginnings of a life-like holodeck.
Interested in the startling beauty and astonishing strength of spider webs, Saraceno's project interfaces the natural world with technological innovation.
An example of the Project Discovery interface.
Taking a similar approach to greater lengths, Dr. Drucker of Microsoft drew approving gasps last month from an audience of more than 1,200 at the Consumer Electronics Show when he projected the interface of what he called media variation software.
