Camera Based Toys

Ongoing research on camera based interactive toys:

Optical Flow Music Maker

Delaunayzer

Kaleidoscope

Realtime configurable Kaleidoscope that uses live video as input. Available here.

netPong

Play pong by tilting your macbook. This uses the Sudden Motion Sensor equipped in all the new apple laptops to control the pad. Play alone, or with a friend through a wireless LAN. On networked mode, the ball bounces from one computer to the other. The network play happens automatically through Apple’s “Bonjour” technology; no action required, just launch the app in both laptops.
