SenseGraphics riding the wave of 3D stereo in Tokyo

Sunday, June 27th, 2010

Almost everything is about real 3D stereo at the 3D&VR 2010 forum in Tokyo. Sony, JVC, LG and Panasonic are some of the BIG players showing their new products for the 3DTV and VR market.

Being present at the Nihon Binary exhibition booth we have been able to attract hundreds of visitors to the SenseGraphics Display 300, featuring not only 3D stereo but also haptics. The user can feel the 3D objects where the graphics are represented and for sure this is a “waow” experience for first time users…

Media has been here and broad casting (live) from our booth. Hopefully we’re able to link to some of the coverage soon.

So you think you can HANDSHAKE?

If you are into application development or research using haptics and you think you can handshake… then this information might be of interest to you!?

Researchers at Ben Gurion University are calling for the best, or most life-like, Handshake algorithm there is…

The official call will take place during the 6th BGU-CMCW in June 2010 and the winner will be announced during the following happening of the same conference in year 2011.

I you feel for handshake algorithms and would like to take on this challenge please go: here…

Almost like Christmas…

We have’ve had so many new cool gadgets to play around with here at the SenseGraphics office lately: the Tobii Eyetracker, one ForceDimension Omega.7 (gripper with force feedback), we just did some first tries out and H3DAPI implementation on an industrial camera (swedish manufacturer) and we’ve also unpacked our own Phantom Desktop from SensAble that we will have here at the office for specific application demos. But we are still waiting for one big wodden box containing a simulator that we’ve been part of developing software for… it should be here any minute now.
