Tangible Holograms
Posted in Technology on 06. Aug, 2009
A couple of Wiimotes, a concave mirror and a ultrasound-spitting panel and you can feel a tiny holo-elephant run over your hands.
I imagine science museums having a lot of fun with this sort of thing, but I wonder what it could do in terms of a “handling collection” approach.
Why it was two Wiimotes and not two webcams is anyone’s guess. I would have thought you could do more with webcams, like add AR codes to your hands.
