Look at this crazy shizz!!! merging reality and virtual reality
probably a repost?? but i couldnt find anything about it on DOA....

http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...n+demo&pl=true

"This is a video from DEMO 2004 showing Total Immersion's D'Fusion technology, which was rumoured to be used in Nintendo's [then-unnamed] upcoming console, Revolution"

(i seriously doubt it but maybe this is revolution/wii's last big secret? would be cool as fuck but i cant imagine it being cheap enough for a console tho)

looks amazing tho, some french company have got a technology that projects CGI in 3D onto reality by the look of it... i dont understand it fully but it looks freaking increadible and depending how cheap it becomes and how it gets used it could seriously change a lot of things in the technology sector imo....

fun to watch aswell!!!


im actually totally miffed as to how it works tho, if anyone knows please enlighten us!!!

im pretty sure if youd shown it 100 years ago you would be dead meat... luckily these days miracles are less severly punished usually anyway

exactly


although the more advanced technology gets the closer it seems to get to magic .. i can see this kind of stuff being used for the wrong reasons in the future to fool a lot of people into believing something, especially with the advancements in the quality of graphics

So were the flower and the lightsaber really "there"...like being projected somehow, or was that 3D image just overlayed onto the video the of the guy doing the demonstration to reflect what was being displayed on the screens? I think it was overlayed afterwards, because the objects in his hands stayed in front, even if his hand passed through where a real object would stop another real object(if you watched it, you know what I mean). Regardless of it was being projected somehow, or if it just shows up on the screen, still pretty cool.

All these new toys!!!

yeah its all just merged into a video.. but its done in real time....

so you will never see the flower in your hand, but the video will show the flower... so basically it relies on being projected on a screen...

without the screen to show it on it doesnt exist etc...


i was thining it used holographic projection or something at first tho, but im pretty sure it doesnt...
