Tom Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 Came across this amazing clip of an art show in France that is using augmented reality to overlay animation on top of real world objects. Is this the future of Art Galleries? Does anyone know if the software needed to create an AR registration good enough to lock animation to a real world setting is available commercially? Or are all the software packages proprietary? Quote
Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted January 5, 2021 Hash Fellow Posted January 5, 2021 I'm going to go to the museum but look at everything through my phone? Hmmm... I dunno. 01:17 A hairy mole like that is usually bad. They should get that checked. Quote
Xtaz Posted January 5, 2021 Posted January 5, 2021 I imagine a future (not so distant) in which human beings will have chips implanted in their eyes and virtual will definitely blend into the reality. Quote
Tom Posted January 6, 2021 Author Posted January 6, 2021 The uses of AR are staggering. Point your phone over a flat tire and (if you've never done it before) it shows you how to change it etc... Just wondering how they get the alignment worked out. ..??? There are a bunch of very technical papers online but nothing a non programmer like myself found useful. I'll keep digging... Quote
Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted January 6, 2021 Hash Fellow Posted January 6, 2021 I see opensource AR SDKs online. I suspect many of them are for just placing an object in a location like that Pokemon game a few years ago. Nailing something down to a surface is more like motion tracking. that has been a perfected process for years now but I'm not sure if anyone has made it freely available. Quote
fae_alba Posted January 14, 2021 Posted January 14, 2021 I remember seeing at one time a tattoo artist that could tattoo some artwork, then a barcode. When you held a phone to it with ta bar code app it would scan and bring up an animated version of the tattoo...looked like the tat was coming to life. Was tempted to get that done but never did... Might be a good project for the summer! Quote
Tom Posted January 14, 2021 Author Posted January 14, 2021 Wow.....sounds like an intriguing new level of tattoo. Ray Bradbury had a story called the "Illustrated Man" about a carnival worker who was covered in tattoos that come to life ....and each tattoo represents another story. Quote
Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted January 15, 2021 Hash Fellow Posted January 15, 2021 Groucho Marx had a song about moving tattoos... Quote And when her muscles start relaxin', Up the hill comes Andrew Jackson! Expand Quote
Tom Posted January 17, 2021 Author Posted January 17, 2021 Pretty funny Rob! I see there is a whole new animation market based on AR: https://holotoyz.com/ Wish the app was open sourced and available for everyone. Quote
