Sony's 360-degree RayModeler 3D display.

Bron: www.engadget.com
Sony talked up its cylindrical no-glasses 3D 360-degree prototype display last fall, and now it's showing off the tech, dubbed RayModeler 3D, on US soil at SIGGRAPH 2010 through tomorrow. A major bonus of that showcase is an English language video -- embedded after the break, plus a hands on including a game of Pong Breakout from Core77 and our videos from the Japanese exhibition -- showing how it all works, including the eight-camera rig and turntable that capture objects in 45-degree separations before they are interpolated to create a continuous 360-degree motion image. Sony claims this is the first of its type capable of high quality images, full color and interactive live motion

Building Music at Spark Festival 09.

Building Music is an interactive installation that explores the musicality of different architectural features. By moving the light of a flashlight along the facade of the building the viewers create musical compositions while lighting the windows. Every window hides a sound and a color that are activated by the viewers from the distance.The project enables the augmentation of public facades to transform them into interactive spaces creating a dialog between the audience and the architecture around them.All the audio in this video was created by the viewers.Spark Festival of Electronic Music and Arts, Minneapolis, 2009A Project by Alberto García, Julio Obelleiro, Jorge Cano and Pedro Enriquez.Thanks to Carlos Cano, Eurico Moita and Sebastian Álvarez

Large-Format Lenticular Signage.

Bron; www dailydooh.com

IGH Solutions of Inver Grove Heights, Minnesota, has introduced Dynamic Images DI Flex, an affordable, lightweight large-format lenticular signage that dramatically lowers the cost of lenticular out-of-home advertising campaigns.

If you are unfamiliar with the lenticular sign, it can basically be explained as being made of two or more photographs that are computer scanned, printed, layered and covered by a special plastic lens. A lenticular sign ‘flips’ the image as you walk by, giving the impression of movement or depth.

iPad in Nederland.

Een historische dag....vanaf nu wordt alles anders.......let maar op.
De iPad van Apple is vanaf vandaag, 23 juli 2010 verkrijgbaar in Nederland. Klanten kunnen de tabletcomputer vanaf 8 uur kopen bij winkels van Mediamarkt en de Apple Stores.
Sinds de introductie van het apparaat in de Verenigde Staten afgelopen april gingen er al 3,27 miljoen iPads over de toonbank. In de eerste maand dat de iPad te koop was, werden er een miljoen stuks van verkocht.

Daarmee overtrof de iPad de iPhone, een ander kassucces van Apple.

Omdat de vraag in de VS zo groot was, moest de internationale introductie een maand uitgesteld worden. Hoeveel iPads voor de Nederlandse markt beschikbaar zijn, is nog onduidelijk.
De iPad is een soort kruising tussen een iPhone en een laptop.

LG komt met eerste Full LED 3D-tv.

LG introduceert de allereerste Full LED 3D-tv ter wereld: de LX9500 in de INFINIA-lijn van LG. Een 3D-film in de bioscoop is een intense ervaring. Met de LX9500 brengt LG die ervaring nu naar de huiskamer. Kijkers bevinden zich middenin de actie dankzij Full LED en TruMotion 400Hz-technologie.

Full LED staat voor een bijzonder hoge beeldhelderheid, scherpte-diepteweergave en contrast. Dit is mogelijk door het gebruik van 1.200 LED-lampjes (bij 55-inch beeldscherm) die verspreid zijn over de achterkant van het scherm. Dankzij TruMotion 400Hz-technologie worden ook ‘snelle beelden’ scherp weergegeven zonder vervaging. LG: "Door de combinatie van optimale beeldkwaliteit met 3D-technologie introduceert LG met de LX9500 een nieuwe dimensie in tv-kijken."

De LG Full LED 3D-tv is in gelimiteerde oplage vanaf augustus 2010 in Nederland verkrijgbaar.
LX9500 Full LED 3D-tv in 47-inch voor 2.899 euro
LX9500 Full LED 3D-tv in 55-inch voor 3.599 euro

"The concept “Slow”, as in “Slow Food” and not as in “Slow Down”, is a key for this. Like “Slow Food”, Slow Media are not about fast consumption but about choosing the ingredients mindfully and preparing them in a concentrated manner. Slow Media are welcoming and hospitable. They like to share."
