For any paranoid portion of the population, a huge face on the monitor is definitely an Orwellian nightmare become a reality. But, a huge face on the monitor that walks out and about inside a whitened jumpsuit is really pretty awesome. Still, he should certainly look out for any girl in red-colored shorts carrying hammers.
Videoconferencing aficionado and awesome costume builder, Serta Rosenfeld miracles why after 3 decades interactive video has not advanced beyond novelty technology. Serta and the partner have theorized it has something related to insufficient eye-to-eye contact, spatial awareness, and gaze awareness. To check their ideas, Serta produced The Large Mind Project.
The rig is really a mind-mounted box having a 24-inch LCD monitor around the front that shows a bigger-than-existence version of Dan's face. Within the box, Serta includes a small camera trained on his face, a microphone, along with a monitor attached to an exterior camera so he is able to see where he's going. To check gaze awareness, the rig is set up to ensure that Serta is searching directly to you while speaking to lessen the 1000-yard stare connected with teleconferencing.
Dan's costume/experiment would be a hit within the neighborhood, however i can't suppose the large box on his mind was comfortable. Obviously the coming year I anticipate seeing a slimmer, more sexy version from the costume out of the box Halloween tradition. [Guru Ramen via Hack each day]
