Annual Student Festival in Delft, the Netherlands with over 1600 visitors and 3 stages

For this project, we explored technologies for actors on stage to take control of stage lighting. In this way, they could create a dynamic piece. We explored the following technologies: Microcontrollers Computer Vision Building a sensor space

For this project, we explored technologies to optimize spherical projection mapping. Although there are several technologies readily available, our aim was to start from scratch, optimizing and researching the viability of projection methods. We tested the following three methods: Equirectangular Projection: Recreating images similar to topographical maps, we optimized visuals to become spherical. Digital Space Recreation: Developed as our own solution, we recreated the setup in a digital space with digital cameras, and projected those in real space, saving resources in the process. Content mapping with disguise: Using media server Disguise one, we used a similar technique as digital space recreation to achieve spherical projection.

The final performance, pictured on the right, utilizes a large latex  suspended sphere to project on. For the performance, we used a mix of  self-made visuals and artist renditions.
