As you know, we acquired a 3D scanner. Today, we had some time to play around with it, so we naturally decided to scan all of the Multimedia lecturers’ faces. Below you can view each of us in glorious 3D! Do you recognise your lecturers?
Awesome things are happening in the multimedia department at the Department of Information Science. A few years ago a colleague and I decided to create a laboratory where Multimedia post graduate students can have the freedom to play, learn and experiment with the newest technologies.
Over the last three years this has slowly become a reality with the department buying pieces of technology. We first started with the Oculus Rift development kit 1. The year after that we purchased the Oculus Rift development kit 2. Shortly after that (after figuring out that we have no computer powerful enough for commercial VR) we purchased “The eye” which is our VR computer.
This year we bought the most equipment yet: A HTC Vive, 3D printers, a 3D scanner and some micro electronics for IoT experiments. Some of these toys arrived this week. We have been playing with some great technology! Below you will find some videos and images of what we have been doing.
