Apple Pencil : 10 alternatives au stylet connecté de l'iPad Pro Apple a présenté son dernier objet connecté, l’iPad Pro muni d’un stylet Apple Pencil. Mais de nombreux concurrents ont déjà imaginé de tels produits, dont voici quelques expemples d’alternatives. Une semaine après sa naissance, on peut dire que le stylet connecté d’Apple aura déjà fait couler beaucoup d’encre… Si les fans de la pomme ont crié au sacrilège lorsque Apple leur a présenté un vulgaire ‘stylo’… certains professionnels se sont réjouis : oui, un stylet sert a de nombreuses fonctions ! Si l’Apple Pencil sera dans un premier temps réservé aux heureux propriétaire de l’iPad Pro, il existe déjà sur le marché de nombreux stylets pouvant vous accompagner au quotidien que vous soyez artiste ou homme d’affaires, à tous les prix. Voici un résumé de ces 10 produits dans un Bunkr, l’outil de présentation qui remplace PowerPoint : Ci-dessous vous trouverez une description courte et les prix de chaque produit, pour vous faire une idée : 2 – Adonit Jot Touch : 3 – Studio Neat Cosmonaut :

Coding Robin Open this page, allow it to access your webcam and see your face getting recognized by your browser using JavaScript and OpenCV, an "open source computer vision library". That's pretty cool! But recognizing faces in images is not something terribly new and exciting. Wouldn't it be great if we could tell OpenCV to recognize something of our choice, something that is not a face? That is totally possible! Here's the good news: we can generate our own cascade classifier for Haar features. But now for the best of news: keep on reading! The following instructions are heavily based on Naotoshi Seo's immensely helpful notes on OpenCV haartraining and make use of his scripts and resources he released under the MIT licencse. Let's get started The first thing you need to do is clone the repository on GitHub I made for this post. git clone You'll also need OpenCV on your system. If you're on OS X and use homebrew it's as easy as this: find .

Soli : Google veut vous transformer en interface pour objets connectés Passée presque inaperçue dans le flot d’annonces de la Google I/O 2015, l’annonce du projet Soli de Google pourrait aboutir à la constitution d’une interface de commande des objets connectés, directement par votre corps. On connait le potentiel des équipes de R&D de Google, aussi bien chez Google X (lunettes connectées Google Glass, lentilles connectées, drones de livraison, etc) que dans les autres services du géant de la recherche. En matière d’objets connectés, Google a montré qu’il comptait occuper tous les segments du marché, notamment en proposant des déclinaisons d’Android adaptées à chaque catégorie d’objets : Android Auto dans les véhicules, Android TV pour les télévisions intelligentes, Brillo pour les objets les moins gourmands ou même Android Wear pour toutes les montres connectées. Mais le travaille de Google ne se limite pas à interconnecter ces appareils électronique, la firme de Mountain View compte également changer la manière dont on les pilote. Via

'Ninja Run' May Be the Craziest VR Locomotion Technique Yet This is ‘Ninja Run VR’, and its yet another take on the ever present problem of user locomotion in VR experiences. But, as crazy as the concept looks, there may be some method to its madness. The question of how best to allow users of VR apps, games and experiences to move around a virtual space is still a hot topic among players and developers. Now, a developer has come up with a new take on the problem, one that on the surface may well look, well, a little “batshit crazy”. “In many popular anime and cartoons, characters depicted to be moving very fast are often illustrated with their hands and arms trailing their torso in the direction they are moving,” Hall tells us, “Even though is is unrealistic, it does induce the notion that the person has a super power to move very fast.” The developer has begun to flesh out his concepts too, this has resulted in a demo experience which adopts the technique.

New Tech Network Microsoft lève le voile sur le nouveau Kinect pour Windows Après l’avoir imposé avec la Xbox One, le Kinect pour Windows va tenter de séduire encore plus de développeurs. Microsoft a en effet dévoilé le design final du boîtier de reconnaissance de mouvements destiné aux PC. Évidemment, Kinect pour Windows emprunte beaucoup au design de son grand frère sur Xbox One. Les développeurs inscrits à ce programme ont pu recevoir une préversion du boîtier; ces chanceux sont éligibles à la mouture finale du Kinect gratuitement.

DIY Hololens by FultonX I wanted to go ahead and develop Hololens apps. Here is Microsoft's live demo video: After experimenting and seeing a couple AR kickstarters, I figured out a way to develop comparable hardware... at least for prototyping. The HMD costs ~$10 and it projects any mobile phone image enlarged at 16" from the eye. I plan to add a Leap Motion, depth sensor, and/or tracking to be able to interact with virtual objects. Edit: TBD items: Google Tango tablet integration: All inclusive sensors and mobile form-factor (fastest road to victory): Without Google Tango: Depth sensor could also just be a head mounted Kinect using: Head tracking could be done with Playstation Move.me at first: Added ideas not on the real Hololens: Pupil tracking idea here:

NASA : un bras articulé piloté par Kinect 2 et l’Oculus Rift À l’heure actuelle, la NASA serait en train de tester un dispositif constitué d’un bras articulé contrôlé à distance par Kinect 2 et l’Oculus Rift. Dépassant les frontières du domaine vidéo-ludique, Kinect 2 capterait les mouvements d’un opérateur avec grande précision afin qu’ils soient reproduit par le robot, tandis que le Rift permettrait à l’opérateur de constater avec aisance les déplacements du bras articulé. Si au jour d’aujourd’hui l’agence spatiale américaine reconnaît que leur système n’est pas suffisamment abouti pour intégrer une mission d’exploration, cela reste néanmoins le but visé. Dans un premier temps, ils espèrent donc pouvoir l’utiliser pour manipuler des robots à bord de la Station Spatiale Internationale (ISS). Pour en savoir plus, nous vous invitons à visionner la démonstration ci-dessous.
