The people over at Obscura Digital pulled off another nice piece of installation. Using their own multi-touch software and combining it with the holographic projection technology of Musion’s Eyeliner 3D System they created quite some magic. If you look closely at the end you can see that the operator has tiny LED lamps in his hands that, if i’m guessing correctly, light up once he squeezes them, which then will create a blob for the system to recognzie.

Missile Command on a Multi-touch videowall

Dance and create in rAys V2.0! With an array of 64 lasers the audience can generate audio and visuals, where every movement (or, better: every intersection of a vertical laser beam with your body) directly corresponds to a sound or graphic. Somehow I can’t really see the synaesthetics and the tight interaction in the video documentation all the time, but I believe it’s a great experience and a cool idea.
