The course is interested in computer-vision as a means of exploring new spatial order by implementing the work with the aid of computation. The use of motion-sensor apparatus in today’s gaming industry has allowed hackers/designers to capture 3D data without sophisticated knowledge of the underlying technology for their own purposes. This term students would use X-Box’s Kinect sensor to extract Depth, IR, RGB data and then further manipulating them with Processing’s rich algorithmic and graphical capabilities. These time-based experiments would result in either a real-time demo or a recorded video of the output illustrating provocative spatial potentials (e.g. dynamic and colorized 3D voxels space…etc.).
