June 6, 2017Augmented Reality Sandbox
June 3, 2017Many of us remember the time of our childhood that we spent on the beach messing around with sand, creating castles, water channels or sculptures.
Sandbox is a complex system that uses Kinect with a combination of projector and specialized software written especially for this system.
Using plastic shovel you can remove or add sand and then using you hands you can add “water” to the part of the box you want. Thereafter system immediately fills your channel or lakes with “water”. You can also paint a hill in dark-brown color exactly we see on the special geographical map.
But SAR was not created as just a simple toy for kids. This is a complex system that was created for serious scientific experiments, and can be very useful in creating and examining different geographic, geologic and hydrological models.
The Augmented Reality Sandbox was developed by the UC Davis W.M. Keck Center for Active Visualization in the Earth Sciences (KeckCAVES, http://www.keckcaves.org), supported by the National Science Foundation under Grant No. DRL 1114663.
