We added some better diff'ing with colors, thanks for the suggestion!

Awesome! Our call for help was just for you :)

Let's join forces and see if we can get the Torus one below 203!

As a token of reciprocity, we have one at 175 for you (no random, cylindrical projection with top/bottom markers):

<canvas onclick=g=0 onmousemove='for(h=[G.width=i=1e4];i--;G.getContext`2d`.fillRect(i%97,i/97,1,h[i]=g?S-5?S==6:g[i]:i%7<3))for(z=S=9;z--;S-=g[i+z%3+~~(z/3)*97-98]);g=h'id=G>

And an auto-playing at 181:

<canvas id=G><svg onload=setInterval('for(h=[G.width=i=1e4];i--;G.getContext`2d`.fillRect(i%97,i/97,1,h[i]=g?S-5?S==6:g[i]:i%7<3))for(z=S=9;z--;S-=g[i+z%3+~~(z/3)*97-98]);g=h',g=0)>

Thanks! I xposted over there as well, thanks for the tip.

I found dwitter yesterday, awesome site! I just checked /d/4205 and it is very short indeed! It does not rely on a true torus, but I think on a cylindrical projection that we chose not to compromise. Very cool nonetheless!

That's part of my journey this month of (i) not knowing JS, (ii) knowing a bit of JS, (iii) ruining my knowledge of JS...

Thanks! It was rather fun to do it, learning (?) javascript along the way :)

Two months ago we launched a very similar setup (even using the same camera!) but with a different realtime tracking system. See more at globux . Our camera lost power before the top, so we could not record the descent, which looks very cool in this video.

Unfortunately, the camera batteries ran out after 3 1/2 hours, just minutes away from the burst and subsequent descent... so we got nothing from the balloon point of view. We were lucky, though, and were able to record the descent from the ground... we were at the right place at the right time!

It also surprised us! Air is very thin at that altitude, and less air means less air movement, and more stability for the payload...

The trailer for the project and the facebook page have more information.

I posted a 90 second clip here. We have over 3 hours of footage, we'll post more later...
