Augmented Reality Sandbox with Real-Time Water Flow Simulation

Brilliant idea of making use of Kinect 3D depth camera in real world simulation. One of the most useful 3D depth camera applications I’ve ever seen.

Interesting application of transparent OLED screen along with Kinect sensor to explore 3D desktop

Two more MSR’s elegant display technologies on augmented reality and remote collaboration:

A Day Made of Glass 2: Same Day. Expanded Corning Vision.

Corning has updated their vision video again.

HoloDesk – Direct 3D Interactions with a Situated See-Through Display

MS Research work – HoloDesk is a novel interactive system combining an optical
see through display and Kinect camera to create the illusion
that users are directly interacting with 3D graphics. A virtual
image of a 3D scene is rendered through a half silvered mir-
ror and spatially aligned with the real-world for the viewer.
Users easily reach into an interaction volume displaying the
virtual image. This allows the user to literally get their hands
into the virtual display. A novel real-time algorithm for rep-
resenting hands and other physical objects, which are sensed
by the Kinect inside this volume, allows physically realistic
interaction between real and virtual 3D objects.
