Finally, I’ve made the ocean as large as I want to. There was no way I could make larger image within short throw distance ( in 3m ) without using fixed zoom lens( $1500 )for my projector.

Lastly, I am willing to test with sand screen for the final demonstration.

I was going to use this setup for exhibition. However, it was not enough to make 4m X 3m virtual ocean on the floor. I’ve decided to purchase zoom lens-022.

I am willing to hold my exhibition in Dean’s gallery.

This is the documentation of my 1st. demonstration. I put the maxmsp codes ( motion detection, 3d nerb ) together and demonstrate in the real space at Pratt E2. It was very effective and interesting to participants. But, more than that I was pleased to figure out what do I need more for the real exhibition.

Motion Detection Maxmsp Patch

For the audiences motion detection, I am going to use this ( Maxmsp patch ). It helps detecting the movement on the screen and adjusting sensitivity as well.

Wide lens Image Correction

When you use the wide lens for motion detection in any reasons such as limited exhibition space, you can see the image distortion ( Image 001 ) on the each edge of video image. To prevent this, I’ve used lens correction Patch ( Thanks to Liubo )

Down load – Lens Correction

(Image 001 )

When you open this patch, you can see “CHANGE HERE”. You can change the number depending on your lens or camera. Then, you can see the straight image like ( Image 002 ). In my case, I put ’0.4′ instead of ’0′.

Infrared Illumination Testing (2)

Now, It’s time to test whether camera only can detect audiences movemnt except projected image.
I’ve tested projected images + Audiences movement + camera ( no IR coating camera + developed film to block the visible lights) + Infrared illuminations

Setting for the demonstration. This video show briefly how did i set up the environment for the test.

Testing with projected images + camera(developed film to block the visible lights x 1 ) + Infrared illuminations
I still can see some of the projected images behind audience. So, I tired to use one more film layer.

Testing with projected images + camera(developed film to block the visible lights x 2) + Infrared illuminations
This is great! I have decided to use 2 films for my project. It was really successful using 2layers for the test. However, it depends on your environment.

Infrared Illumination Testing (1)

admin — Mon, 10 Mar 2008 07:10:00 +0000

I’ve tested Infrared Illumination without projected image in order to know ” How many IR Illuminations do I need ” covering 3mX4m. As a result, I’ve figured out that I need at least 9 IR Illuminations for the real project. When you see the video below, you can see how does it look according to the IR Illuminations in the dark.
