How to look at yourself from another point of view

type="html">

I’m not certain why you want to do this, but if you ever wanted to see yourself from behind or in front of you, you can use this particular method.

All it takes is a camera with video-out and a mounted display, and then use a head-mounted display like the ones from Vuzix. I’ve heard that you can discover a lot about yourself if you can look outside of yourself, and this would prove it.

Also, if you ever wanted to see yourself as a video game character from a hovering camera, like Tomb Raider, this is the way.

Another Kinect hack with 3D possibilities

type="html">

Some of you might remember when we covered Oliver Kreylos’ first attempt at 3D panning with a Kinect.

As you can see in the video above, Okreylos (his YouTube user name) has added a second Kinect to his little experiment. It definitely causes more of a 3-D view, but if it is panned to the back of the XBox case, it is nothing but a hollow box. You will see a difference when a Kinect is turned off.

So, is the Kinect the new bullet-time for this decade?
