During the CHI conference the guys at faceAPI presented their software. What you could see was a working version of the head tracking demo by Johnny Lee we saw earlier, but with just a webcam and no Wii-mote.
The software could recognize the human face within 6 degrees of freedom. As far as I could tell, it worked pretty well. Except that this setup might have a hard time in darker environments. A webcam always needs sufficient light. Great development. Next step: some decent head tracking supported games? Be first to comment this article |

Joris van Gelder is a masterstudent at our Industrial Design department. His designcase was recently featured on various Dutch tech blogs like Bright and Fresh Creation. In a nutshell his project was about a remote that you could control with your "dirty" hands. That means without touching.
I've read about this concept in our University magazine back in January. At that point the pictures looked very innovative and the interactions described sounded truly futuristic, but the project didn't really struck me at that point as much as it does now.
It all changed after he released a video on youtube. Now the big international blogs and even news sites are picking up on it. We all know an image says more than a thousand words, but I think this proves a 30 second video prototype could replace a whole scientific article.
It's hard to imagine interaction explained through pictures and words, but a videoclip can sprout interest and explain things to a much larger crowd in just a fraction of the time. I bet even most non-tech people tend to find this interesting to watch:
