Changing method

Well now that the holidays are over and my group has reassembled we can now look at what we plan on continuing onto from here. From the feedback we received and the reflection we have made I think we have decided to focus on pursuing our interests and talents into our project rather than focusing on the purpose of the project for now. This is not to say we will be aimlessly going on tangents, rather move forward on our ideas before trapping ourselves into an indecisive position. As I am learning, the ideas become fundamental when we start to see results and action.

Over the last two weeks I have been testing Video Eyeware glasses and understanding what they can do. So far I can view videos on my Iphone as well as use a Sony handycam to have a live feed. Using the handycam has sparked up a few ideas I can put to use. Depending on where the camera is facing the user can become disorientated by simple movements, especially when they themselves can be seen in view.

Students from the Netherlands also have been experimenting using video glasses and created a project based around looking at oneself. They also used the glasses to create teamwork by giving half of their own vision and half of another persons. Both had to try and complete a picture. The project can be viewed here.
