Mobile Reality Demo

I was privileged enough to be a part of a panel in Mobile Reality at the Where 2.0 Conference this year, chaired by Brady Forrest.  Here’s the short description of the panel:

“An emerging class of smartphones including location-based services and persistent data connections are lenses by which we can effectively view data layers atop physical space. What was once only available from tethered desktop computers is now possible from pocket-sized companion devices that travel with us. We are seeing examples of this in their earliest incarnations – social networking, gaming, reference and commerce.

Opposed to looking far into the future, this panel looks at examples of this technology in use and available today to consumers on a variety of smartphone platforms, including the Apple iPhone and Google Android. Panelists will provide short demonstrations of this technology, followed by a topic discussion and Q&A.”

The reason for sharing this is to show you EveryScape’s initiatives towards mobility.  I believe EveryScape has one of the coolest and most useful visual platforms around (in my unbiased opinion), and you can see a glimpse of what’s being worked on in the video below (starting at the 2:3o mark).


The Era of Post Processing (part deux)

I’ve opened up a can full of thoughts and ideas with my last blog on Post Processing.  So, imagine this:  What if you can create a 3D model out of any image?  What would you do with it?  How would you use it and for what?

This is work I did at MIT with Max Chen and Fredo Durand many years ago.
