Design • Began with PVC Design with cardboard walls • Decided to make a more rigid solution
Design • Created wooden chassis • Gave it wheels for mobility • Developed a portable version out of PVC later
Inside AccessMT • Glossy White Paper Walls • Projector • Mac Mini (Not Pictured) • Camera • IR Lights • Power Strip
IR Lights • Modified IR Lights • Tried many light orientations • Had to create a consistent “IR Cloud”
Camera • Began with Playstation Eye • Modified with Floppy Disk • Wasn’t high enough resolution
Camera • Upgraded to Logitech C910 • Used same floppy disk modification • Image wasn’t as clear as we’d like • Switched to film negative modification
Projection Intercepting • Need a material to intercept the projection • Vellum worked but was grainy • Denril replaced the vellum as a clearer solution
Software • Community Core Vision • Used for tracking fingers, gestures, and tags • BSQSimulator • Translated TUIO events into Windows 7 Touch Messages
Future Work • Tagged Objects • Allow for a tactile tabletop experience
