Arduino Racer

admin — Fri, 06 Aug 2010 03:20:28 +0000

“RACER” is an interactive video game installation featuring a racing arcade cabinet, an R/C car, and a recreated cardboard (Sony) Wipeout course. The R/C car has a wireless video camera on board allowing the user to have a drivers perspective. The project took two months to prototype and the demo has been unveiled. The arcade is running off an Arduino micro-controller communicating to a R/C remote controller via a serial cable. All the engineers need to do is add a roll cage to the R/C and you would have endless uninterrupted hours of game play.
Job well done Malte Jehmlich.

Sun Boxes

Sun Boxes is an outdoor sound installation created by Boston artist Craig Colorusso. It’s comprised of twenty speakers operating independently, each powered by solar panels. There is a different loop set to play a guitar note in each box continuously. These guitar notes collectively make a Bb chord. The sound loops are different in length, and continually overlap and slowly evolve over time. Sun Boxes is a perfect composition of technology and environment to help or crazed culture slow down.

STEP INTO THE SENSORY BOX!
Tom Chosson, Cedric de Azvedo and Alex Mestrot are SUPERBIEN a creative agency based in France.
Step into the Sensory Box is a beautiful display of visual work. The colors and shapes compliment each other and add overall depth to the the visual effect. The installation was developed purposely for company Alcatel-Lucent to offer an artistic and mobile experience to customers attending the Mobile World Congress. The public was invited into a cubical space to feel and view the visual effects.

What a great example of video mapping! I’m a fan of SUPERBIEN.
