Virtual window to the Winscape world with head position tracking using the Wiimote
In this picture everything is real, except for the view from the window of the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. When the viewer moves, the double image on 1080p monitors move in the opposite direction, providing a realistic illusion of looking into the real window behind the glass at an incredibly clear and detailed landscape outside the window.
So how is this done - we take 2 plasma TVs (46-inch Panasonic TC-P46G10), Apple Mac and Wiimote, we connect all this through the Winscape program that uses OpenGL and learn how to work with the Wii remote control. ')
As a result, after a year of work, this craftsman received a realistic window to anywhere in the world. Moving from side to side, the Wiimote will monitor us and change the appearance of the window so that the reality of the real window is felt.
The creator plans to sell the main set for the construction of such a miracle in the region of $ 3000 in July of this year. Watch the video with a demonstration under the cut.
