This video shows an 8 by 8 dual color LED Matrix controlled by an Arduino and Boarduino that is bright enough to project the patterns on the ceiling of a space. Lots of details on this simple build including a parts list at the link below. LED Matrix Projector
Capturing 3D surfaces with a flash camera via /. Comparing a flashlit photo with one taken in ambient light can reveal the texture of a surface, and could help develop more realistic computer games… The virtual worlds in computer games provide a realistic backdrop to the action. But step too close and the effect is […]
The guy who started Oakley is now going to kick the butts of every high end camera maker in the world, the Red Digital Cinema looks amazing! Great article about him and the gear @ Wired. Jim Jannard, 59, is the billionaire founder of Red. In 1975 he spent $300 to make a batch of […]

Randy shares documentation of his experiments using infrared LEDs to prevent cameras from recording his facial identity. The verdict – it no worky (at least with any of the LEDs tested) – How not to block cameras More: – IR LED glasses (anti-paparazzi) – LED security camera disruptor on Hackszine
Take a stroll through the uncanny valley with Emily, an impressive example of how far facial animation has progressed – Previous methods for animating faces have involved putting dots on a face and observing the way the dots move, but Image Metrics analyses facial movements at the level of individual pixels in a video, meaning […]
From the MAKE Flickr photo pool It seems the Animal Detection Team has been conducting a bit more experimentation involving their aptly named Animal Detector imaging device – This past week, we took the device to the beach. One afternoon we set the light aside and pointed the camera skyward, recording the motion of pelicans […]
