I’m really suspicious to all things said and showed on the internet, and this video is not exception. Somebody please pinch me as this video from 1994 talks about electronic newspapers.
We see newspapers going to e-publishing thanks to success of tablet device, iPad from Apple in particular. But this video talks about future more than 15 years. Just to put this into perspective: 7 years before release of Mac OS X, 5 years before release of Mac OS 9, 3 years before release of Mac OS 8, and a year before release of Windows 95. Read »
Well SouthPark guys did it again. In the season 15th Premier episode they make fun of location tracking, iTunes agreements and everything else that could make fun of.
In case you haven’t heard yet, YouTube is now capable of streaming 3D video in various formats. If you have 3D capable TV or monitor, there are two options available for you. You can use old school anaglyph (colored glasses) and, my pick, no 3D devices option. Well with 3D devices it’s pretty straight forward, but how about rest of us who don’t have those devices on our hands. There is option and it’s called stereogram! (read on and video is below)
This is pretty cool. By using front camera, app developers can create apps that ‘simulate’ 3D, i.e. glasses-free. Front facing camera tracks face position, esentially what angle is looking at the iPad, and adjust picture on the screen.
We track the head of the user with the front facing camera in order to create a glasses-free monocular 3D display. Such spatially-aware mobile display enables to improve the possibilities of interaction. It does not use the accelerometers and relies only on the front camera.
During one of my trips last year, I flew through Detroit. This lightshow in the tunnel blew me away – it was calming, inviting and spectacular. I shot hundereds of photos on my SLR camera, used Photoshop to align them and converted them to this time lapse video.
OK, OK… it is not, but this is really cool video of what Mario Bros. could look like on one of those game consoles, or on PC for that matter. Enjoy and Merry Christmas!
Here comes the end of 2010. It’s been quite a year for me. Many changes many adventures and many challenges throughout. I would talk more about challenges in my Articles section, promise.
This is going to be my New Year’s resolution: come back to this blog and pay more attention. You might already have noticed that I’ve been updating my Portfolio section with new photos. Some of those are even from last, 2009 year. And there is way more where those came from.
In the meantime, enjoy this video – it made me laugh and hopefully would make you too.
This one is pretty sweet. Invisible mouse! Sure it looks a bit silly with camera attached to the side of the laptop. But it is just the begining. I bet if Apple jumps on this wagon we would see something pretty cool.
Just arrived at F5-Expo at Vancouver Convention Center. I bet there will be hundreds tweets, blog posts especially about bumpy start of the expo. Running quickly to the office to grab stack of business cards I thought I would be late for conference kick-off scheduled. Update: Despite computer issues, F5-Staff decided to let everybody with [...]
I’ve neglected my blog for quite some time time now writing only one post per month, if that. With this post I’ve determined to write about all those things I have done in the past 6-9 months but haven’t shared yet. I’ve mentioned our new corporate Rogers Cell phone plans, but haven’t really talked about [...]
Two members of our team were heading oversees, Russia to be exact, for couple of weeks and it was my responsibility to come up with solution for cheaper roaming. One of them was on Telus with World Blackberry while other had personal Fido phone. Telus roams fine in Russia, but bills are outrageous. Telus charges [...]
After shooting Anthony Sedlak at Eat! Vancouver show Friday night, I’ve imported footage from my Sanyo Xacti HD1010 into iMovie 09. I was so happy that by converting .mp4 files into .mov it actually reduces size by 50%. The truth was – it only imported half of the clip.
Saturday, Oct 25th - I just had to order extra shot in my Americano from Starbucks. Even though it wasn’t bad hangover, coming to office at 8am on Saturday is not what I’m used to. I’ve met my friend Igor at Starbucks, two triple Americano with extra shot and we are heading to the office. First [...]
