The development team has been very busy with many late nights the past week coding away on the flash interface with the final design comps from Zach. Some of the significant milestones that we have reached are getting all the …

The project took a big step forward today when we successfully captured our first touch data point from our table on our computer and used it to interact with a prototype piece of our flash interface. Now that we had …

Today Alex and I concepted and built three custom projector mounts for our projector to help angle it correctly towards our screen.  We measured our angle and traced it onto some paper sheets. We cut out the angles and traced …

Today Steve and I broke apart the PS3 Eye Camera to remove the Infrared filter and install the bandpass filter we bought. This bandpass filter only allows the specific wavelength of light emitted from our IR LED’s to pass through. Breaking apart …

Today we installed the IR LED’s onto the edges of the acrylic. These lights emit a specific light wave length. When a finger touch is made on the surface of the table, this specific wave length of light is refracted …

We have been working on importing the great models, which Alex has put a tremendous amount of work into this quarter, into Flash. We have begun to develop the 3D interactions to work with these models once placed into the …

This post is meant to visually show off some of the hard work we have been doing coming up with the UI for our Touch Table. You will get an Idea of the design process by viewing our wireframes as …

Over winter break, we constructed our touch table. We used ¾” plywood which meant we had to rework the original plans calling for ½”. In this first photo, we can see Alex’s 3d model of the table which we used …
