Last week, I flew out to Cleveland, Ohio with some others from the NYU CREATE Lab to demo our educational, biological cell builder. On Tuesday of last week, we allowed both middle school students and teachers to try out our science lessons for themselves. For this demo, we were able to make the front end …
June 6th we took to Verizon’s Alley office to present our work for the past couple of months. A team of us at the lab have been working on a multi-user collaborative classroom. Specifically, we focused on creating a classroom lesson where students get together to build a cell from parts that are floating between …
In the past couple of weeks, many of us have been working on different aspects of what will become a volumetric capture camera rig we will use here at the lab. At this point in time, we have a rough prototype of what one wall of this rig will look like. This can be seen …
As you can see from my lasts couple of posts, I have been working a lot on volumetric capture solutions here at the lab. Recently, Zhenyi and I have been trying to streamline the pipeline we have constructed to record a person from different cameras, and merge the point cloud data from these cameras easily. …
Since we got a pair of Intel Realsense Depth Cameras, I have been working on creating a pipeline for volumetric capture at the lab. However, if we were to capture footage from different depth cameras we would need a solution for stitching up the output pointclouds, that is where my investigation began. First, I created …

For those of you who have been keeping up with my other posts about the 3D model I have been working on, this is the next installation in that series 😊. So, after I was more or less happy with the look of my character, and after moving it between Maya and Zbrush a couple …
Recently at the lab we got some new Intel RealSense Depth Cameras. These cameras are able to create point clouds of real-world scenes. In other words, the data produced consists of 3-dimensional points in space! There are many possible use cases for this, but one of the ones we have been focusing on here at …

For SIGGRAPH 2018, we decided to do a VR experience with an audience. Although we have not yet moved away from VR, recently we have been testing how AR could excel at being a platform for storytelling as well. I placed a lizard character in the center of our lab walking around and holding a …
Recently, I uploaded a repo to FRL’s Github that includes the multi-user iPad system that I have been working on. If there are any questions anyone has on how to use it, be sure to send them my way! We are looking to set up workspaces that will make it easier for people at the …
Tomorrow, there is a little presentation on the usual Friday meetings we have here in the lab, and I’d love to talk about it a bit. As can be noted by some of my previous posts, I have been working for a couple of months on iPads and multi-user AR. First, I used Google’s Cloud …
