Handheld Projector Demo
Imagine having a projector inside your cell phone or PDA, what can you do with it? Researchers from University of Toronto made a demo. www.cs.toronto.edu
Well I think this Idea can go a long way. I would like to think that holding that huge projector is just a pain in the ass and that multiple projectors and motion sensors would be more logical. The movie gamer or Minority Report has a example of what I am talking about. Over all a great idea and demo.
this would actually work well in a game like quake/halo. The “w a s d and spacebar” for moving forward, back, and jumping, could be attached to your hip. Then you just aim around the room with the projector as you would a mouse. Would help me get some excercise too.
I was going to say there’s better ways of transporting info until I saw the marking of bad PC’s; cool. However, it would make more sense to use some sort of eye based camera to semi see-through OLED glasses, or monocle and then the user’s input is based on a pen that can be used to interact with stuff. And the best part is, there could be interaction channels, so if you were a tourist, you’d join the 411 channel and buildings would be displayed with information on them different than IRL.
Wow! Ang galing naman!
what a brilliant idea! Unstoppable imagination!
a step closer to ARI system. . . man, i can’t wait to have a view of African jungle inside my kitchen. . .
Complete Useless project. a headache instead!
and to think. . . . this was made in 2007
Future Graffiti you can’t paint over lol
Just stick it in your window and pop up a screen on your neighbors house.
How can I make something like this? All I want is a projector that will hook up to my iphone or laptop and be able to touch on any surface.
sick shit
Imagine decorating a room virtually with furniture and rugs before even buying the actual stuff.

In The Game Halo =)
this is really awesome!!!
this is going to make 3D gaming more interactive. Good work.
Here! lets say the computer doesn’t work with this fancy glowing green projector pen instead of just using a fucking sticky note!!#
i agree
that is some smart stuff right there!
the interfacace wood thing with the balls yeah i think he should have it reconize a can of coke9tm0 and lazer projector on his head for high rezzz.
Grafitti=hack yes its going to happen. ads will happen people will be sued
duck tape it to a hard hat so you can demo better and make a second user so you can both see the same thing and work with the same data points.
Genial !
this is the FUTURE =)
Its very NICE ^^
thts awsome but pointless
