\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tNew Orleans is amazing town. You never know what you will find.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tGaussian KD-Trees for Fast High-Dimensional Filtering<\/a> Check out this paper. Thats some serious multidimensional filtering! Planning on implementing this for Gen3.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThanks to the SIGgraph studio and the folks from VFlash<\/a> and their 3D printer. I got to try it out and here is UMAJIN the dragon in 3D. Looking forward to my own makerbot so I can try this at home.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThe exhibition hall has some great stuff. The DI3D<\/a> gear I have been following for a while. This four camera system was very effective. Essentially two stereo pairs are fitted together and normalised to remove errors. They also provide software to convert this raw point cloud \/ mesh into a nurbs cage.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\"sig5\"<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSome of the projects were a bit more whimsical. Pull-Navi<\/a> is probably self explanatory from the pics. Yes, thats right it allows you to steer yourself with a remote control joystick. Sensibly the feedback is provided by little motorised clamps which pull on your ears. While this has immediate practical use, I am still wondering about the umbrella vibration relay device at the exhibit next door.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\"sig6\"<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tTouchCo<\/a> Demonstrated some really exciting pressure sensative multi touch sensors. This could really open up the potential for interfaces to support effects like hover.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tEven during the carnival the internet police could rest easy knowing the event was being captured in stereo.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\"sig8\"<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThere lots of great papers this year. Here are a few highlights;<\/p>\n

  • Multi-operator Media Retargeting<\/a> another great paper from the authors of seam carving.\n
  • Kun Zhou<\/a> has some great papers on his website, check it out.\n
  • Procedural noise<\/a> will never be the same again.\n
  • Compressive light transport sensing<\/a> e.g. work out the light transport using the theory of compressive sensing.
