maybe false flag attacks

It looks like the same principles as how a laser mouse works. or like the the ps3 or Nintendo wii. each device is assigned to a 3D object in the interface. its pretty simple when you think about it. the technology isn't new. just the concept

Augmented reality is projecting a 3d image onto a video feed

I think that's called augmented reality, but I may be wrong.

wow thats awesome! only thing i can think of right now is maybe architectural planning? idk im not even outta highschool yet haha, so idk. but it seems as if there should be some use for it, or it would be such a waste :O

me too. it's very interesting, but what uses could we really use it for? i couldnt think of anything, really.

This would be a fantastic tool for animators and film/stage directors. You could map out camera and actor paths by hand. Be loads of fun and probably pretty easy.

Well, I must say you have a point. Why would someone build this unless something useful, or even for just entertainment purposes, will come out of it. It's nothing really new though, just a composition of older technology, but someone out their probably already applied it to something usefull I just dont know of yet. Their is no limit to imagination.

may be nothing new but the processing power on that is very very impressive. and besides, who would invest so much time, energy and money into such a project if it had no useful applications? and why is it that every time somebody does something good some person sitting behind their computer browsing youtube has something negative to say about it? where are people like you when we're looking for computer engineers to design brilliant new technology? |
