Video projectors are one of the most important tools for creators of interactive installations. The information for projectors is available on various websites, but this 2 part guide will focus on their use in production and interactive environments.
Part 1 will focus on the projector as hardware(lenses, lumens, surfaces etc), and part 2 will go into more details on the software and calibration considerations. This will gather some of that disparate knowledge into the important bits you need to make informed decisions about creating a high quality experience. They vary in scale from pocket-sized (or smaller) pico’s to refrigerator sized large-venue projectors.
Here is a sample checklist that you can go through when planning to choose a projector for an interactive installation or large event. What is the surface or object you’ll be projecting on? Visiting the installation space in person is optimal when starting to plan. LCD Projector Teardown Video: LCoS Hybrid Laser Diode Image Geometry. Controlling LED strips from MadMapper. In addition to being the easiest and quickest video mapping tool, MadMapper can also control lighting? How does that work? We will explain the theory of operation to control lights, and more specifically LED strips, with MadMappers new MadLight feature.
For that, we will first do an overview of the devices and technologies needed. Then we will see an example of a simple LED strip installation followed by some details of the installation of “The Cave”. Note that this tutorial focuses on LED strips, but MadLight can control any DMX512 compatible device. Try-this-at-home-with-care disclaimer ** Working with electrical devices requires some knowledge to avoid problems or even life threatening accidents. ** Low voltages used to power LEDs are not lethal but can be dangerous. Technical description Before explaining the tool chain needed to control LEDs from MadMapper, we need an introduction to the technologies and devices used. Attributes: LED strips work with DC voltage. With USB: Wiring The Cave. Rainbow Installation. Ce projet « Plexus Series » se veut explorer le chevauchement entre la mode et l’architecture avec ces structures multicolores et des installations actuellement au Dallas Contemporary (Texas).
Gabriel Dawe nous propose ainsi de découvrir de splendides compositions de fils de couleurs dans la suite. KUBIX - PROJECTION MAPPING STAGE SCULPTURE. Young Architects Program.
