Just tried it out with my webcam, it's pretty laggy; but the potential is huge: www.plugintothesmartgrid.com
yeah started playing with it the other day, really cool, papervision plus cameras == pretty dope.
As I recall - this was the how Snepo did their holiday card. Pretty damn sweet, all in all.

Very clever.
I suspect we'll se a whole bunch more in the future too.
I saw a cool example of this when I was in Portland, but now I can't find it. :(
How very clever, sneaking BMW ads into our online counterculture.

It's all fair. If technology is open you have to expect it's going to be used for evil. It falls upon the creatives to come up with better ideas than an advertisement could express.
I bought a Nintendo DSi to get into augmented reality. Unfortunately, Nintendo has made it so difficult to upload homebrew I'm going to have to spoof my DSi with a fake app. store.
FUCK YEAH! Put a nail in this one.

The question is, is advertising intrinsically evil?
By the way....that shit is fucking cool.
And of course - the Japanese have found a way to program this into porn (or nearly).

i don't know wtf that was but now i really want to meet a girl in a mouse costume.

Alternatively you could strap on one of these and so how long you can fight it.
really? come on y'all seriously? surely you didn't buy into yet another marketing term? :P
Part of a project related email I just recieved:
Silhouette detection with persistent blob primitives of hands and head and silhouette geometry forwarding to Flash would be feasible in that time frame.
The nodes of a very basic skeleton for IK, made up of a tracked head, a torso and two hands could be achieved.
A further option would be add depth map information using 2 cameras in a stereo setup and openCV to allow each silhouette object to have a z value. that way children further away can have different colours.
The data I am sending Flash can be easily formated on my end in either Flash type "array" form or XML form. If you have any other preferences, just let me know.
The information you would receive would be a "Frame ID" with time stamp header for each snapshot of data, and a tracked data object for each person with a unique ID .
Each object will consist of one array of ordered x,y points that make up the outside of the silhouette, and sets of ordered x,y points for the 'holes' in the silhouettes. There should be enough points that will allow for smooth edges without the need for vectors, as noise in vectors can cause exaggerated artifacts.
Also contained within each ID'ed object would be blob coordinates for the head, hands and torso. With this information you can attach primitives to each node at your end.
I <3 my job.
Aw, fun!
Love it!!

Any other webcam-navigation sites?
dang... we've been talking about doing that for a while now... I guess a good idea is only good if you do something about it.
