The iPhone Virtual Reality Goggles, They Do Nothing [Bad Ideas]
2008-03-10 21:00:00 Oh man. Apparently somebody just saw The Lawnmower Man and got inspired. This virtual reality head mount for the iPhone is designed to let you strap your favorite expensive phone to your face, blocking out everything else so there's nothing to distract you from the glow of your precious. This entirely garbage idea was created by a company called Box Fab who presumably just got a copy of Maya and decided to try to trick investors into giving them money. They're a "pre-revenue start-up" looking for people to place bulk orders and pay in advance so they can start manufacturing their ill-advised product ideas. I would really love to see this get made with software that would turn the accelerometer into a VR machine, actually. Seeing people on the train with their iPhones strapped to their faces, slowly going blind and experiencing the future as described in the late 80s, it's almost too awesome for me to imagine. The best part? Box Fab thinks they can make it for under $200. For gogg...

"Consider the source": The idea of the Universe as a virtual reality

Ford?s Virtual Reality Cave
2007-12-29 06:49:00 Located in the Product Visualization Center at the company’s Product Development Center in Dearborn, the digital lab, a darkened room about the size of an office, is modeled after a nearly identical Ford of Europe German facility. With two such facilities, cross-Atlantic collaboration is possible for the development of global vehicle platforms. "Having VRCs on both sides of the Atlantic supports the Global Product Development System and Way Forward by allowing management teams in North America and Europe to make consistent decisions based on shared data and to make them more quickly," said James Forbes, Ford Core Vehicle Architecture technical leader. The VRC is outfitted with a computer, discreet cameras and a "driver’s seat." Three walls and the ceiling are covered by rear projection screens that display computer-aided design (CAD) drawings of vehicle interiors and exteriors at actual scale. During a design evaluation, a program engineer sits in a ca...
How to Turn your Wii into a Virtual Reality Device
2007-12-28 16:45:00 'Nintendo, watch and learn!'Softpedia has shown you cool uses of the Wiimote, courtesy of Johnny Chung Lee and it seems that the man is at it again, delivering us a neat invention, based once again on Nintendo's hot console. There's even a great tutorial video beneath, so feel free to check it out or even try it yourself, in case you want to test the Wii's potential. This time, we're dealing with a head tracking device created with the aid of a Wii remote and head mounted sensorbar.You'll also be able to use two infra-red LEDs instead of the standard Wii sensor bar, in order to track the location of your head and get a bite out of virtual reality. As shown in the video below, the display will react perfectly to your movements (of the head and body), turning into some sort of window towards the VR universe. It's a great illusion of 3D space and depth and this experiment uses a software, which is in fact a "custom C# DirectX program as is primarily provided as sample code for ...

New Virtual Reality Headset
2007-12-13 11:55:00 Well I always swore by the Z800 headset back when I was thinking of writing software, tools and games for the Virtual Reality market.However a new bad boy has just come on the scene. The VR920 from eDimensional.Now I have always liked ED because they are reasonably priced for some pretty top end geeky gadgets. I have had the shutter glasses for years now, and although I have had to wear them upside down because I use a projector (Image coming from behind me rather than in front of me). It still made games absolutely awesome. Plus with me writing games for the Wiimote for the PC, it made it possible to have a 3D wall with wiimote inputs making for some pretty realistic emmersive environments on my PC. There were limitations however that you could only see it when looking forward. Well the Z800 for £500 fixed that, and now so does this little gadget for around £200.It contains pretty much the same stuff as the Z800 (Head tracking, dual visual displays allowing 1024x768 displays and su...

2007-12-09 20:13:00 I haven't been online recently because we lost our internet connection at home. We were subscribed to Digitel's DSL since June 2005 and after a mixture of bad service and overcharging, we decided to opt out. We then bought Globeline's Broadband wireless internet and phone package but it was an even worse nightmare than Digitel.A few days after we submitted the application, a crew of testers came to our house to test if it really works and since it's wireless, to make sure that there is a signal/network that the wireless modem can connect to. Needless to say, we were impressed at how fast the internet connection was, we were even able to download a song via Limewire. And so they promised to have the router and the wireless phone delivered in a couple of days. Those couple of days turned into a week or two, and when it finally arrived, the delivery man just left it and said he doesn't know anything about installing it: "Taga-deliver lang po ako." (I am just the delivery man.) I c...

PHP QuickTime Virtual Reality (QTVR) for the rest of us
2007-09-24 12:04:00 We've all seen the really cool QuickTime Virtual Reality elements out there. They allow you to 'grab' an image and rotate it as if it were actually spinning. Normally this could only be done through various QuickTime or Flash programs, however there's a new PHP/JavaScript version with this same concept that you can get for free. All you need to do is drop the images you want to use into a folder along with this file and you're set. The end result is much like the new skim feature in iPhoto.

Getting to the airport, queuing for passport control, airline food, cramped seats, hostile taxi drivers, unhelpful hotel staff, the list goes on. Perhaps it?s with these drawbacks in mind that people will be tempted to spend an evening at ?the most hi-tech venue in the whole of London?.24 is, the owners claim, the ?first fully interactive bar in the world?. It has state-of-the-art lighting and bar technology that can project images of any location all around you as you sip your Tequila Sunrise. Apparently, the furnishing are touch sensitive too so light beams shoot out every time you put your glass down. Reach out towards the projections and they will react to your movements.So it is now possible to enjoy views of the Grand Canyon without even having to go as far as Zone 4 on the Underground. You can have dinner outside the Taj Mahal and still be home in time for Match of the Day. I assume that it will even be possible to...
