Help plzz....

Aj. Moe,

I tried to research on the formation and information that relates with interactive design to get some more insight but I'm kinda stepping on the same foot steps so I think that since its taking me no where, I decided to put that idea in a box for now.

However, I found these interesting videos that still encompass in the subject of interactive design of sensibility of how it reacts to movements of facial expression or walking pass and to sound.

Here are the links,

I know that I'm still undecided and all over the place, really sorry about that but the strategy of walking into the unknown is a new thing for me, so bare with me at the moment and baby steps please.

So should I still continue with picking a site and create like a shadow device, which from what I understand is making a physical model or should I walk into a different path now since I want to do this sort of sensory motion interactive design.

Seoul Suggestion?

All,

Something to look forward to while you are working in the realm of the unknown...

Let me know about places/areas you want to go or a must eat restaurant in Seoul.

Make suggestions here so we can put it in our schedule later:

I already put some in, feel free to make changes to layout, add sheets, columns, etc

mint's goal for tuesday 24/8

Topic: Interactive Environmental design: at the moment i'm looking into shading devices

1. Pick a site

2. Select material

2.1 multiple technology

2.2 construction technology

3. create a small model

Krist's goal for Tuesday 24/8

1. Get FLARToolkit to work
2. Get texture in ARTag to work
3. Look into some type of interaction
with FLARToolkit
4. Find way to create and use own tags with
toolkits
5. Look into motion detection technology

interesting website about design

ARTag: 3

Not going well; the assigned material does not show
with the model not sure what's wrong. The cube with material
assigned showed up white, but the jpg assigned to it
does not displayed....

    case (evt.Data >39 && evt.Data<=78) :
        B_mc.alpha = 1;
        break;

    default :
        A_mc.alpha = B_mc.alpha = 0;

Physics in Blender

Since Blender has a game engine, it is able to simulate real world physics. An example can be seen here.

http://www.opendimension.org/blender3d_en/arch_pressure.php

This particular blender file simulates an arch made from stones. Pieces of stones can be moved around so as to see how it would affect the stability of the arch. Such laws of physics would be very useful when simulating architecture.

for Chy,

if (evt.Data > 100 && evt.Data<200){
   A_mc.alpha = (evt.Data-100)/100;
} else if (evt.Data >200 && evt.Data<300){
   B_mc.alpha = (evt.Data-200)/100;
} else {

   A_mc.alpha = B_mc.alpha = 0;
