Prototyping
We made the prototypes for our Presentaion to ISRO (Indian Space Research Organization), Jawaharlal Nehru Planetarium, C.V. Raman Insititute of Science and The Department of Astro Physics.
Augmented Reality
Augmented Reality Technology (A.R.T.) was a project done by me, Jit Chowdhury, Ankkit Modi & Deepak Mallya. We took interaction with the virtual world to a new level by introducing real interaction with it. A marker (a shape recognized by a computer) was placed in front of a webcam and using ATOMIC we generated planets which could be moved and positioned in the orientation of the marker. The entire concept was to have the feeling that the viewer is holding a planet in the palm of his hand.

These are some of the pictures of a demonstration of A.R.T. in a Srishti School of Art, Design & Technology Interim Semester Exhibition at Jaaga, Bangalore.
