I remember seeing the Spin 360 (?) guys doing their setup at BattleBots to make 360 VR images of the combat robots. They had all sorts or crap there to get the job done. Computers, high end digital vedeo cameras, lights, white walls, big assed turntable… Now you can do it all with a bunch of Legos and an old digital camera. How cool is that? This is a much better solution than what I did years ago with my CoolPix 100 and some black cloth…
I can see this being a cool way of creating content for a laptop that has been turned into a digital frame. Make a bunch of QT VR slides (frames, clips, what is the correct term?) and run them as a continious loop on the digi-frame to add a little spice to your normal slide show of family photos. I should get on that and build one shouldn’t I…
