Real Time Tracking & Projection Mapping (Full ver.)

The high speed Real-Time Tracking and Projection Mapping system will enable high resolution (1920 x 1080) images at 10,000 lumens ANSI brightness to be mapped onto fast-moving objects, such as performers on stage, with masking and trimming applied over video and fed to the projector in real time. The technology dovetails with high-brightness Panasonic’s 3-Chip DLP(TM) SOLID SHINE laser projectors adapted to rental and staging applications.

WOW|INORI – PRAYER-

作品について
最新鋭1000fpsプロジェクターと超高速センシングによるリアルタイムトラッキング&フェイスプロジェクションマッピングの最新作「INORI -PRAYER-」が公開。本作は、浅井宣通(WOW)の呼びかけにより、TOKYO( https://ift.tt/2ohbmB7 )、ダンスユニットAyaBambi、東京大学石川渡辺研究室とのコラボレーションから誕生した。
本作は、ディレクターを務めた谷川英司氏(TOKYO)が提案した「生命」をテーマに楽曲を制作したところから開始。楽曲から受けたインスピレーションを元に、クリエイティブ・テクニカルディレクター浅井(WOW)とCGディレクター阿部伸吾(WOW)がビジュアル制作とプログラミングを構築。更にAya Sato氏がコレオグラフを作り上げ、TOKYOが映像作品として完成させた。
本作では、最新鋭の1000fpsプロジェクターDynaFlash(※1)と超高速センシングの使用により、これまで不可能だった激しいパフォーマンスも追従できるフェイスマッピングシステムを実現。トラッキングを高速化することによりパフォーマンスの自由度が失われるという開発当初のジレンマを解消すべく、WOWチーム、渡辺教授、手島氏(EXVISION)は約三ヶ月に渡り数ミリ秒を削るためトライ&エラーを繰り返し、今回のシステム(※2)を完成。プロジェクションされたイメージは、それ自体が皮膚の一部と一体化しているようにも見え、被写体の顔が変形・変質する際の表現力を飛躍的に高めた。
※1: 東京大学石川渡辺研究室と東京エレクトロンデバイスが共同で開発し、東京エレクトロンデバイスが製品化。
※2: 手のトラッキング&プロジェクションマッピングは、東京大学石川渡辺研究室が開発したダイナミックプロジェクションマッピング技術を使用。顔のトラッキングは、WOW inc.が開発したフェイスマッピング技術を使用。

Pres.-elect Joe Biden Addresses LGBTQ+ Leaders | LIVE | NowThis

BIDEN ADDRESSES LGBTQ+ LEADERS: President-elect Joe Biden delivers remarks to a virtual meeting of the International LGBTQ Leaders Conference. During his campaign, Biden made sweeping promises to the LGBTQ+ community, including pledges to pass the Equality Act, end the transgender military ban, reinstate guidelines that prevent anti-LGBTQ+ discrimination, and combat LGBTQ+ youth homelessness. Most of his immediate actions would be reversing executive actions from Pres. Trump. ‘The president-elect and the vice president-elect put together the most comprehensive plan to advance equality here at home and abroad ever put forth by a presidential ticket,’ said Reggie Greer, the Biden campaign’s LGBTQ+ engagement director. ‘And as a result, it lays out a pretty strong blueprint on what the incoming administration can do.’

[UIST 2020] RealitySketch: Embedding Responsive Graphics and Visualizations in AR

[UIST 2020] RealitySketch: Embedding Responsive Graphics and Visualizations in AR through Dynamic Sketching

Abstract:
We present RealitySketch, an augmented reality interface for sketching interactive graphics and visualizations. In recent years, an increasing number of AR sketching tools enable users to draw and embed sketches in the real world. However, with the current tools, sketched contents are inherently static, floating in mid-air without responding to the real world. This paper introduces a new way to embed dynamic and responsive graphics in the real world. In RealitySketch, the user draws graphical elements on a mobile AR screen and binds them with physical objects in real-time and improvisational ways, so that the sketched elements dynamically move with the corresponding physical motion. The user can also quickly visualize and analyze real-world phenomena through responsive graph plots or interactive visualizations. This paper contributes to a set of interaction techniques that enable capturing, parameterizing, and visualizing real-world motion without pre-defined programs and configurations. Finally, we demonstrate our tool with several application scenarios, including physics education, sports training, and in-situ tangible interfaces.
