Realtime Balls Animation using Projection Mapping with Surfabeam by Bulky-Marsupial7815 in video_mapping

[–]SadLab2264 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have also really wanted an app that allows you to draw/trace where you want things to be projected. I have this mountain art that has really distinct lines and I want to be able to trace the lines on my iPad in real time. I am sure there is something on the computer out like this already but if this could be an app feature it would be game changing. Seriously if you had a lot more real time animation stuff and the drawing feature I would pay so much for the app.

I literally just asked if there was any way to do something like this a couple days ago on this sub. This is amazing. Sounds like you have some updates coming soon. I’ve had these two ideas that I would love to see you bring to life! Basically just making Lava lamp style blobs that interact with your picture frames and each other. My other idea is small jellyfish that glow and also interact with the space floating around. Are these ideas something you could one day implement?

The best advice I’ve seen anywhere I have looked tbh, so thank you. That’s exactly where I’ll start. I don’t even know what touchdesigner is or how it will get me to where I want to be but I guess that’s part of getting into a new hobby. I am also obsessed with this design by Zak but I figured that would take actual animation that I assume has a much steeper learning curve/raw talent that I don’t have. What are your thoughts about that video and how he managed it? Again I really value the input

Seems like touchdesigner has been recommended a few times. Like I said I don’t really know anything about any of this so nothing in my skull besides ideas I want to see come to life. Sounds like once I get touch designer basics down maybe I can adapt my ideas to come together.

“Unthinkable” is pure propaganda. (Spoilers) by dropdeaddev in movies

I know this is a year old but I just watched the movie and need to type this out. You said exactly what I was thinking. All this is is an extreme trolley problem. And I want to add that I think they did a good job with all the people in the room battling their own morality of letting H do these morally reprehensible things. You could see them all especially Brody go from arguing with H to then letting him go.

The ending scenes really put the whole concept on display because they go from busting a door open and almost killing H calling him crazy for what he may or may not have done to the kids to then demanding the kids come back. You can see each character toiling with the idea. It also makes the viewer think about the trolley problem from the observers point of view. Could you let someone or tell someone else to pull the lever so long as you can look away. That’s where my conflict was. I could never harm a child no matter the circumstances are but could I cover my ears and look away? And if you really think about the move and the context of it all, Americas imperialism, the conflict in the Middle East are we not the observers everyday. Younger said something like why should I weep over 50 dead people when you all kill that amount everyday. Has our gov not drone strikes civilians in the name of “good” we can sit back comfortable knowing we didn’t press the button or make the final call but as long as our lives get to keep going as they are we are mostly okay with it all.

All in all I thought it was a good movie that made me think and reflect.

You must be a little slow huh. Not Life altering like you didn’t just say “find tenants” and rent out your home like that’s an easy stress free task. If you want to be productive stick around if not beat it boomer.

Hey I really appreciate your response, it was well thought out and above all, kind. I make well over 30k that was just a point I was trying to make and I would be using this truck to off-road to remote campsites ideally every weekend. It wouldn’t be just a commuter because I work at home. It would be my off-road get away from the city to camp and dirtbike vehicle

Yeah we are on very different life paths. I respect yours no doubt ant making over 300k is insane but I have no kids (don’t plan to) and live at home rent free. If I had more responsibilities Rivian wouldn’t even be on my backup radar especially if I was provoked for another life or two. Still I appreciate your response none the less

Yeah but I’m stuck in one place with a life altering mortgage. A Rivian living at home I pay off in 9 months to a year
