SenseCam is a wearable digital camera that is designed to take photographs passively, without user intervention, while it is being worn. Unlike a regular digital camera or a cameraphone, SenseCam does not have a viewfinder or a display that can be used to frame photos. Instead, it is fitted with a wide-angle (fish-eye) lens that maximizes its field-of-view. This ensures that nearly everything in the wearer’s view is captured by the camera, which is important because a regular wearable camera would likely produce many uninteresting images. SenseCam typically takes a picture every 30 seconds, although this is user-configurable. The maximum rate of capture is one image every 5 seconds. With a 1Gb storage card fitted inside the device, it is capable of storing over 30,000 images which in practical terms is a week or two’s worth of pictures. When the internal storage is full, the images must be downloaded to a PC.

Het zesde zintuig.

Dit gaat wel heel erg ver...neem de tijd voor deze video ( 14 min.) het is zeker de moeite waard.

Mobile Wearable Interface and Gesture Interaction (for the price of a cell phone?!) Sixth sense allows you to use ANY surface for interaction, and can provide you relevant information about whatever is in front of you. This would be a great feature for people with disabilities and in the future might also function as a cognitive prosthesis.

HP has showed off its “wall of touch”, a massive contact-less touchscreen, to the Wall Street Journal in New York. The modular screen, that uses optical cameras and a magnetic strip to detect when users are nearing the wall, was originally developed following a request from the company’s public relations firm and is set to be rolled out in 2011. Read on for video content.
The wall can comprise up to nine 43”, 1.5” thick panels with a resolution of 1080p. It is driven by an H-P Z800 workstation and allows users to access cable feeds, satellite feeds, download and stream content from the web and view DVR and DVD content.The product will be available to customers in 2011 and but is set to cost any where between $2,000 to $100,000, according to the newspaper’s website. The report added that future systems were expected to incorporate additional features such as HD videoconferencing.

Remember the CueCat--the quirky bar code reader that was going to connect magazine readers with digital material?
Well, apparently Microsoft does too. And while the CueCat meowed into obscurity, the software maker thinks that the idea made sense--that is, using a digital scanner to link printed materials with online content.
You can think of Microsoft Tag as CueCat 2.0, though this time, it doesn't require a special device. Instead, Microsoft tags use a cell phone camera for scanning the bar code, and the digital content can pop up right there on the phone. Over the past year, Microsoft tags have started showing up in magazines and newspapers. Tags can also be placed on business cards, products, and even large outdoor signs.
