Subject: An interesting input technology and a Croquet like environment Newsgroups: gmane.comp.lang.smalltalk.squeak.general Date: 2006-02-21 07:26:22 GMT (2 years, 27 weeks, 1 day, 1 hour and 11 minutes ago) For those who may be interested This is an interesting multi-touch capable screen demo. Great for gestures, etc. Also would be interesting to see how such an idea could be utilized in Croquet. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zp-y3ZNaCqs Another cool thing that could be utilized as Croquet input is the SpacePad. There are a few other things in the market but this seems to be a reasonable system for experimentation. I am currently assisting a project where motion capture is a big part so have been looking into many mo-cap systems. Most of them are prohibitively expensive. This is not a mo-cap system but can be used as a VR input system. http://www.ascension-tech.com/products/spacepad.php Also an interesting group of 3D dwellers are growing in a virtual environment called second life. I am sure Croquet guys are aware but just in case anyone is missing it is an environment worth checking out. http://www.secondlife.com Tansel |
