Passion projects blog

For the past 4 weeks we have been constructing a Augmented reality sandbox. we have been making it for our passion project because these are things i find cool. The wooden base was made last Thursday so then we can show our project this Thursday. We have our admins and some of our tech group working on the projector and kinect to see if it will work or not so far it isnt working.The kinect sensor will sense the depth of the sand which will give you a visual representation of what it would look like on a topographic map.


what went well?
that the whole group had something to work on and also got what we needed to get done, done.

what didnt go well?

the computer doesnt and kinect sensor doesnt read the sand properly.

what can we do about this problem?

Equipment:
Xbox 360 kinect
Sanyo projector
Computer with Linux

Sandbox our group is making

Yesterday during lunch time Bradley was climbing the gym roof and then he fell down and landed on his feet and snapped his legs in half. The force was so strong that he ended up putting large holes in the ground with his clown feet. He landed on Eltaf and his shoe fell off and he never got it back. Bradley found out he could never walk again unless he has tiny legs so he said wants to have his legs amputated instead of having small legs. Eltaf never found his shoes and had to buy a brand new pair.
