ProFORMA: Probabilistic Feature-based On-line Rapid Model Acquisition by Qi Pan

 

YouTube Preview Image

The generation of 3D models is very useful for many computer vision applications. This video introduces ProFORMA, a system designed to enable on-line reconstruction of textured 3D objects rotated by a user’s hand. Partial models are created very rapidly and displayed to the user to aid view planning, as well as used by the system to robustly track the object pose. The system works by calculating the Delaunay tetrahedralisation of a point cloud obtained from on-line structure from motion estimation which is then carved using a recursive and probabilistic algorithm to rapidly obtain the surface mesh.

Sniff Interface by Karolina Sobecka

 

http://www.vimeo.com/6400266

Sniff is an interesting interactive interface concept. Sniff is an interactive projection in a storefront window. As the viewer walks by the projection, her movements and gestures are tracked by a computer vision system. A CG dog dynamically responds to these gestures and changes his behavior based on the state of engagement with the viewer. More information about this project can be found on the website.

Disturb Me Brussels Installation

 

http://www.vimeo.com/4313323

“Disturb Me” is an interactive installation between human and his environment. It is to make perceptible the reciprocal links and often forgotten contact, that we maintain with our environment. The projection depends on the sound emitted by the spectators and creates consequently, a transitory and colored environment. The projected forms are revealed when in contact with surfaces of the room.

Augmented Sculpture by Pablo Valbuena

 

YouTube Preview Image

Created by Pablo Valbuena, it mixes, according to him, a “volumetric base that serves as support for a second level, a virtual projected layer that allows controlling the transformation and sequentiality of space-time.”
