There Be Pixels!

Posted by James - 12/01/09 at 07:01:47 pm

“Here Be Pixels” by Mario Klingemann is an interesting presentation from MAX 2008.

In it, Mario talks about using bitmaps and bitmapdata with cameras to do everything from a barcode reader to augmented reality.  He doesn’t cover the code, but does cover the theory and shows some implimentations, and references research that this was all built from.

I feel like I’ve just sat through an intensive lecture at university all over again – I did a motion capture project with much of the same technology back at university, so I found it very interesting to see just how far the same technologies could be taken.

Have a watch, if you have 56 minutes!
