First hour of class:

An intriguing French "Augmented Reality" technology.

And some on-line discussion of it that contains a link to an earlier demo.

Interesting NY Times article about immersive reality glasses.

New face applet research for Dr. Chris Lucas at the NYU School of Medicine.

For the Papyrus project: Visit to the New York Academy of Medicine at 4:30pm this Friday.

The API for the table:

• Next week we will have an API.

• It will have a corrected camera view, with a callback that is called every frame.

  We will first try it in Java, and we shall see if it's fast enough. If not, we'll go over to C++.

• We will set up a way to do the warping for calibration.

  But we will also provide a way for you to do your own matrix correction.

• One task for an interested student:

  Get the JoGL version of my renderer writing to a P-buffer (so that we can post-distort it).

Denis Zorin has also graciously permitted us to play with his Responsive Workbench.

Second hour of class:

• Organize into groups.

• Work on defining sub-tasks of the world, the game, the interface, etc.

• Report your conclusions on the class WIKI.
