ARflashmob Sander Veenhof / SNDRV 2010 flashmob, event, Smartphone, shape recognition, marker, 3d still, multi-user, 360 small field of view, statue, Amsterdam, reactive to hand position, no narrative, Dam square
Every square in every major city in the world knows the 'human statue' phenomenon. On the Dam square in Amsterdam we've the following set of characters: a Darth Vader, a superman, a gladiator and some undecipherable sort of gothic characters. Even though they have nothing to do with the city of Amsterdam, people go and have their picture taken with them on and off. But not on the 24th of April! Then, the majority of people will be photographing the empty space beside Darth. Because that space will be occupied by virtual 'human sculptures', brought alive by Augmented Reality applications on iPhones and Android devices!
Art of Defense Augmented Environments Lab (Georgia Institute of Technology) 2009 Smartphone, shape recognition, tilt sensor, graphic playing board, generative animation, multi-user, 360 small field of view, reactive to hand position, interactive linear narrative, on any suface, game, novel, phone
Art of Defense (AoD) is a novel AR game for a commodity phone (the Nokia N95). The goal of Art Of Defense is to explore game design and interaction techniques that are well suited to mobile AR on a small screen device. One principle guiding AoD is to uses the phones limitations as part of the game itself; in this case, designing assuming the player has a limited view of a larger game space.

Augmented Sculpture Series Pablo Valbuena 2007 spacial Projection, videomapping, sculpture, animation, sound, multi-user, 180 large field of view, natural eye movement, linear narrative, space-specific for sculpture, ars electronica, projection mapping
This project is focused on the temporary quality of space, investigating space-time not only as a three dimensional environment, but as space in transformation. For this purpose two layers are produced that explore different aspects of the space-time reality. On the one hand the physical layer, which controls the real space and shapes the volumetric base that serves as support for the next level. The second level is a virtual projected layer that allows controlling the transformation and sequentiality of space-time. These ideas come to life in an abstract and geometric envelope, enhanced with synesthetic audio elements and establishing a dialogue with the observer.

Augmented Shadow is a design experiment producing an artificial shadow effect through the use of tangible objects, blocks, on a displayable tabletop interface. Its goal is to offer a new type of user-experience. The project plays on the fact that shadows present distorted silhouettes depending on the light.
Bamzooki Jason Garbett, Rupert Harris (BBC) 2010 television, 'Free-D' marker recognition, video, marker, generative animation, sound, multi-user, small field of view, game show, linear narrative, on any television, television, game, show, entertainment
Children's entertainment show in which teams of kids design creatures called zooks which are put to the test against each other. The BBC’s Virtual Studiotechnology was used to enable realtime composition of the 3D rendered graphics with live camera feeds. Each studio camera has a dedicated render PC to render the virtual scene from that camera’s perspective. To know what a studio camera’s perspective is, each camera is fitted with a second ‘Free-D’ camera which points towards the ceiling. On the ceiling are reflective, circular bar codes. The 3-D camera data is fed to a computer system that identifies the targets on the ceiling and calculates that camera’s position and orientation, 50 times a second.
Body Paint Mehmet Akten 2009 spacial projection, motion tracking, bodies, generative animation, multi-user, large field of view, human live performance, interaction with public, live, generative, non-linear narrative, any stage, live, dance, motion tracking, real-time
“Body Paint” by Mehmet Akten is an interactive installation and performance allowing users to paint on a virtual canvas with their body, interpreting gestures and dance into evolving compositions. The installation is designed to work with any number of people and is scalable to cover small or large areas. The interaction is very simple - movement creates paint. Hidden in the simplicity, are many layers of subtle details. Different aspects of the motion - size, speed, acceleration, curvature, distance all have an effect on the outcome - strokes, splashes, drips, spirals - and is left up to the users to play and discover.
Coraline Interactive Store Front (Total Immersion, Inwindow Outdoor) 2008 screen, shape recognition, video, still, multi-user, small field of view, reactive to head position, non-linear, any shopping window, ARvertising, movie, hologram, shopping window
These “Storescapes” ran for a month in fourteen locations across seven major US markets featured holographic images of ghost children. Other displays incorporated augmented reality which superimposed images onto pedestrians. Onlookers could see their reflections in a screen with animations including button eyes covering their real eyes. In other locations, there were elements that responded to human gestures such as clearing away frost to reveal parents pleading for help.
Curious Displays Julia Yu Tsao 2010 Spacial Projection, video mapping, model livingroom, animation, sound, multi-user, 180 large field of view, linear narrative, model of living room could be placed anywhere, concept video, projection mapping, research, science-fiction
Curious Displays functions simultaneously as a form of design research and as a proposal for a new product, a future display technology. The project explores our relationship with devices and technology by examining the multi-dimensionality of communication and the complexity of social behavior and interaction. In its essence, the project functions as a piece of design fiction, considering the fluctuating nature of our present engagement with media technology and providing futurist imaginings of other ways of being.
De Pong Game Arjan Westerdiep, Benjamin Gaulon (Recyclism) 2005 projection, projectionmapping, architecture, generative animation, sound, multi-user, 180 large field of view, interactive non linear narrative, on any building, long setup, Ososphere festival, Art Rock festival, Hansaflux festival, Superflux festiva, DEAF festival Dublin, Lightwave festival
This project is exploring the concept of Augmented Reality by using and interacting with urban architectures [buildings] as background for the game. Thus the game is projected on a building and the limits of that building are becoming the limits of the game area. The ball projected on the building bounces along the limits of the walls. The software is also using the windows as an obstacles for the game. So the ball is limited to frame of the building. As you touch the ball with the slider, its speed increases and because the ball bounces on all the obstacles of the architecture it becomes more and more difficult to play.
Domestic Robocop Keiichi Matsuda 2010 output free video, video edit, kitchen, mixed-media video, multi-user, to watch on a screen, linear narrative, watchable anywhere, concept video, research, science-fiction
The latter half of the 20th century saw the built environment merged with media space, and architecture taking on new roles related to branding, image and consumerism. Augmented reality may recontextualise the functions of consumerism and architecture, and change in the way in which we operate within it. A film produced for my final year Masters in Architecture, part of a larger project about the social and architectural consequences of new media and augmented reality.
Epizentrum Martin Zeplichal 2005 projection, videomapping, architecture, reactive animation, multi-user, 180 large field of view, no narrative, anywhere indoors, long setup, projectionmapping, audio reactive, energy, edges
The sensitive reciprocity between visitor and space is visualized by interactively animating the existing architectural geometry. Seismographic oscillations produced by the visitor of the space get amplified and every step causes striking movements of the ambient itself. This map of oscillation gets amplified and transferred into a visible real-time animation that projects the animated edges of the building geometry on itself. The space visibly moves and becomes both interactive toy and interface.
Extension Series Pablo Valbuena 2009 spacial Projection, videomapping, indoors architecture, animation, sound, multi-user, 180 large field of view, natural eye movement, linear narrative, space-specific, vooruit, projection mapping, almost cinema
The result is a game of light and dark. On and off. Present and absent. Virtual and real. A binary system made to measure for the digital age. The age where light does not mean anything without the reference to dark, and ‘on’ does not mean anything without ‘off’. Where the present always refers to the absent. Where you cannot see what is virtual without reality. Together they form one reality: the space, the map, the plan in which we are.
Eye pet Nicolas Doucet (playstation) 2009 tv screen, motion detection, user, generative animation, multi-user, flat small field of view, non-linear interactive narrative, any tv with playstation, playstation3, game, kids
The game uses the PlayStation Eye camera to allow a virtual pet to interact with people and objects in the real world. Using augmented reality, the simian, gremlin-like creature appears to be aware of its environment and surroundings and reacts to them accordingly. The player can place objects in front of the animal and the game will interpret what the object is and respond to it.[

Hand From Above Chris O’Shea (Abandon Normal Devices, Liverpool City Council, BBC) 2009 moving billboard, video tracking, people on the square, video and animation, multi-user, large field of view, reacts on human presence, non-linear narrative, any square, Leicester Comedy Festival
Hand From Above encourages us to question our normal routine when we often find ourselves rushing from one destination to another. Inspired by Land of the Giants and Goliath, we are reminded of mythical stories by mischievously unleashing a giant hand from the BBC Big Screen. Passers by will be playfully transformed. What if humans weren’t on top of the food chain?

MagicBook Mark Billinghurst , Raphael Grasset , Julian Looser , Hartmut Seichter , Andreas Duenser (HITlabNZ) 2008 handheld glaces, shape recognition, marker, animation, multi-user, 360 large field of view, reactive to hand, marker position, linear narrative, on any surface, books, collaboration
The MagicBook explores seamless transition between reality and virtual reality. When users look at the pages of a real book through a hand held display they can see virtual content superimposed over the real pages. When they see an Augmented Reality (AR) scene they like, the user can fly into the scene and experience it as an immersive virutal environment. In addition the book serves as a focus for collaboration. When several users look at the same book page they can see the AR image from their own viewpoint and when one flys into the virtual model, the other users see her as a virtual character in the scene.
N Building Teradadesign+Qosmo 2009 handheld display, phone, graphic image recognition, marker facade, twitter feed, animation, multi-user, 180 small field of view, reactive to hand position, non-linear real-time metadata, space-specific, informational, see trough, building, twitter
N Building is a commercial structure located near Tachikawa station amidst a shopping district. Being a commercial building signs or billboards are typically attached to its facade which we feel undermines the structures' identity. As a solution we thought to use a QR Code as the facade itself. By reading the QR Code with your mobile device you will be taken to a site which includes up to date shop information. In this manner we envision a cityscape unhindered by ubiquitous signage and also an improvement to the quality and accuracy of the information itself.
Night Lights Joel Gethin Lewis, Zach Lieberman, Pete Hellicar, Kyle McDonald, Todd Vanderlin w/ Daito (The Electric Canvas, YesYesNo, Inside Out, The Church ) 2009 spacial projection, projection mapping, motion tracking, building, live video feed of people, generative video, multi-user, 180 large field of view, uses body outlines, generative non-linear narrative, mapped on the ferry building, projectionmapping, phone, movement, openframeworks
In this installation YesYesNo teamed up with The Church, Inside Out Productions and Electric Canvas to turn the Auckland Ferry Building into an interactive playground. Our job was to create an installation that would go beyond merely projection on buildings and allow viewers to become performers, by taking their body movements and amplifying them 5 stories tall
