Hi form Manchester, this is a basic diagram of the system I am developing for my residency and my Ma.EA show… Any feedback would be great!

Hello from Linz

Julian — Mon, 14 Jan 2008 15:09:16 +0000

Hi all, I’m here on residency in LInz, where it is cold but very interesting. My project-SLARiPS- aims to create novel augmented reality systems within second life, allowing one to view 3D augmented objects in world, remove them, manipulate them and transfer back in world.

This is the complex version. For more details please refer to my ANAT blog at http://www.anat.org.au/mentorship/
I will post some cool video soon!

all the best,

Julian
