How do you map a texture onto a polygon in a scene if you did not generate the polygon yourself, and have no idea of it's exact orientation in 3D space?

Totally Arbitary 3D Texture Mapping

Let's say, for example, you were trying to photo-manipulate this image, and you wanted to change the picture on the wall to the left of the picture. This picture came out of a book, so I have no idea about the exact position of the camera or the wall. How is it possible to map a picture, with correct perspective onto the wall? I want to pretend that this picture by Dali was hanging on the wall. Well, all you really need to know is the shape of the rectangle on the picture. Find the four corners of the rectangle. For now, we can ignore the rest of the picture, and just concentrate on analysing the rectangle. The first thing you'll need to do is to find the center of the rectangle as it would appear in perspective.

Next, find the two vanishing points of the rectangle. i1 is the intersection between the lines AB and OV1. Sports Model Flying Saucer (two tone version) by gpvillamil. Endless.

Flat-Pack Magic: Ten Amazing Folding Chairs

They require relatively few materials to make, and they're far more fuel-efficient to ship. Here are seven takes on the theme: The Flux, which debuted this year at a Dutch furniture fair, is easily the best-looking of the lot. Made from a sheet of plastic, it folds up so that you can carry it like an over-sized briefcase: One classic assignment for student industrial-designers is to make a chair out of cardboard. Eric Ku's Chair/Chair is made of five pieces, which spell out the word: Another carboard chair, by Elias Kulukundis, which was inspired by origami: Another cardboard chair, but you can buy this one. Andrej Blazon's Charity Chair was designed to resemble the hat traditionally worn by an order of charitable nuns.

Sara Paculdo's Flat Chair won't win any beauty pageants, but it's a fascinating experiment. Omri Barzeev, a recent design-school graduate, has a knack for folding stuff into chairs.

Mini Club Chair From IbrideOhdeedoh in Europe - France. Flat-Pack Furniture: Eco-Friendly Cardboard Chair Designs. Designed for everything for dorm rooms to interactive children’s playrooms or even conventional living rooms, the creative cardboard chair and stool designs of David Graas have evolved considerably over time from simple style-free objects to highly stylized furniture designs.

Flat-Pack Furniture: Eco-Friendly Cardboard Chair Designs

His early works are incredible straightforward and if they are elegant it is only in their simplicity and the way that their form follows their function. Flat-pack, pre-cut sheets of cardboard contain easy-to-punch-out forms that slot together to make simple stools or chairs. Later seating and surfaces follow similar industrial design principles and take advantage of the same structural principles that make these forms work as rigid, load-supporting objects. Though these are likewise sustainable designs, easier to ship and possible to recycle, the forms and curves of these iterations have become more resolved and central to the design process. The Latest Updates to Augmented Reality: 3D and Gravity. (a) A virtual cake with candle flame appears thanks to augmented reality but tilting the cake (b) doesn't affect the flame.

The Latest Updates to Augmented Reality: 3D and Gravity

Turning on gravity (c) is just one of Metaio's latest tricks in improving AR. Augmented reality allows you to look through the camera on your mobile phone and see a digital world superimposed on the real one. Metaio allows augmented reality to actually understand the physical world. The Munich-based firm is one of the biggest names in AR, and Metaio recently made several exciting announcements. Top among them: their mobile AR technology now understands gravity, has high-end 3D object recognition, places 3D objects nearly flawlessly on your screen, and each of these improvements are now going to be available to every mobile developer for free later this year.
