Architectural Projection Turned Up to 11

We’ve seen the sublime (many thanks Sohan, ) now for the ridiculous… ACDC with some Iron Man 2 movie tie-in thing projected on to Rochester Castle.
Can’t get enough of this great visual effect.

Stand Inside An Imploding Stadium

Well, this is something you dont see everyday,  a 360 degree interactive camera view inside an imploding stadium.

The home of the American football team the Dallas Cowboys was recently demolished, but they took the opportunity to record this hystoric event in the Teams history with a full 360 degree camera rig setup inside the destruction.

What you end up with is this

Swiss Army – Presentation Master

The Swiss Army will be a force to be reckoned with with the launch of the new Victorinox – Presentation Master multi-tool.

http://www.swissarmy.com/images/ProductCatalog/vm/vm_5301PMG16_sol_a02.jpg

Its a modern multitool for very modern uses.

The knife is equipped with:

  • Fingerprint  encrypted USB Flash Drive
  • Bluetooth presentation remote (for changing slides)
  • Laser Pointer
  • Nail File with Screwdriver
  • Scissors
  • Key Ring
  • Knife

So not only is this tool perfect for transferring and presenting digital presentations, it can also be used to threaten any objectors with the included knife.

Fantastic!

Holographic Architectural Imaging

This presentation absolutely made my jaw drop. 3D modelling, both physical and virtual have always played a big part in any architectural practice. The difficulty in virtual 3d modelling has always been how to best present the work. Renders are good, but you can only see one aspect of the building at a time, fly throughs are constrained on rails and require a computer to present.

This new blending of holographic technologies and data imported from traditional architectural modelling tools produces a “flat model”, able to be viewed from all directions just a physical model can.

Very cool.
