Cam-Trax ‘Any Object Interface’

Normally when you hear about tracking you just assume that it’s a very expensive piece of kit or a highly sophisticated algorithm. Well Cam-Trax is sophisticated but with its simplicity.

The system allows you to control anything you like by tracking an object’s colours. You will understand when you watch the video below. It seems very apt considering we are all experimenting with tracking in some form or another at the moment.

Hail To Del.icio.us - A Treasure Trove

So I have been using Del.icio.us for a couple of days now since it was mentioned in a PPD session and I am beginning to see the advantages. It uses a tag system similar to blogging so you can see related bookmarks. Why I haven’t used it before I don’t know.

I just found a brilliant piece of interaction called Eye Gaze being used with World of Warcraft. The guy is controlling his movements with his eyes… look ma, no hands!!
