We Are the Crystal Gems 2.0 (MomoCon 2018 Panel Intro) *UNOFFICIAL*

THIS IS NOT OFFICIAL. Seen a lot of people express a lot of confusion, so here’s the HD upload! This was our intro for last week’s panel at MomoCon. McKenzie edited the running sequence that people believe it’s real. Enjoy perhaps?

HairControl: A Tracking Solution for Directable Hair Simulation

We present a method for adding artistic control to physics-based hair simulation. Taking as input an animation of a coarse set of guide hairs, we constrain a subsequent higher-resolution simulation of detail hairs to follow the input motion in a spatially-averaged sense. The resulting high-resolution motion adheres to the artistic intent but is enhanced with detailed deformations and dynamics generated by physics-based simulation. The technical core of our approach is formed by a set of tracking constraints, requiring the center of mass of a given subset of detail hair to maintain its position relative to a reference point on the corresponding guide hair. As a crucial element of our formulation, we introduce the concept of dynamically changing constraint targets that allow reference points to slide along the guide hairs to provide sufficient flexibility for natural deformations. We furthermore propose to regularize the null space of the tracking constraints based on variance minimization, effectively controlling the amount of spread in the hair. We demonstrate the ability of our tracking solver to generate directable yet natural hair motion on a set of targeted experiments and show its application to production-level animations.

JAZA 6DoF Photo Contest Winners

KanDao, the makers of the KanDao Obsidian camera, sponsored a 6DoF photo contest called JAZA, Journey Along The Z-Axis. In this video I look at just the first, second, and third place submissions in detail.

If you’re interested in seeing me look at all of the submissions, check out this much longer video: https://youtu.be/CtSYq8ApUts

Garbage dump in India – Lotta Härdelin, Dagens Nyheter, Sweden
Delhi is the worlds second largest cohesive metropolitan with more than 50 million inhabitants. These 50 million people generate more than 10 000 tonnes of waste every day. In Shastri Park, in the north eastern part of Delhi garbage is seen all over the streets. The air is hazy because of the airpollution mixed with smoke from minor fires.
In the middle of the Shastri Park dump, Sadita and her family sort out plastic from the mountain of waste. A good day, her family can earn about 4 dollars. The family have lived at the dump for about ten years. When asked what it´s like to live at the dup, Sadita shrugs and says ”The dirty air affects us, but what can we do? We havet o earn money for food”

Codename: Niantic Occlusion – Real World AR Occlusion featuring Pikachu and Eevee

The recently acquired Matrix Mill team at Niantic has spent years building and perfecting deep neural networks that can infer information about the surrounding world from one or more cameras. This technology redefines how machines see and understand the 3D world and more importantly, how digital objects can interact with the real elements of it. Using computer vision and deep learning we are able to develop techniques to understand 3D space enabling much more realistic Augmented Reality (AR) interactions than are currently possible. In the above AR experience of Codename: Niantic Occlusion, you can see Pikachu and Eevee weaving through and around different objects in the real world, dodging feet and hiding behind planters. This level of integration into the environment around us is a proof-of-concept that excites us about the future of AR.

“Cool Kids” Lyrics:

She sees them walking in a straight line, that’s not really her style
They all got the same heartbeat, but hers is falling behind
Nothing in this world could ever bring them down
Yeah, they’re invincible and she’s just in the background

And she says

I wish that I could be like the cool kids cuz all the cool kids, they seem to fit in
I wish that I could be like the cool kids, like the cool kids

He sees them talking with a big smile, but they haven’t got a clue
Yeah, they’re living the good life, can’t see what he is going through
They’re driving fast cars, but they don’t know where they’re going
In the fast lane, living life without knowing

And he says

I wish that I could be like the cool kids cuz all the cool kids, they seem to fit in
I wish that I could be like the cool kids, like the cool kids
I wish that I could be like the cool kids cuz all the cool kids, they seem to get it
I wish that I could be like the cool kids, like the cool kids

And they said

I wish that I could be like the cool kids cuz all the cool kids, they seem to fit in
I wish that I could be like the cool kids, like the cool kids
I wish that I could be like the cool kids cuz all the cool kids, they seem to fit in
I wish that I could be like the cool kids, like the cool kids
I wish that I could be like the cool kids cuz all the cool kids, they seem to get it
I wish that I could be like the cool kids, like the cool kids
