Yes, it has been busy time at Lumen and we have used or explored almost every feature of Hyperion.
The Future Farming road-show has a wall of 6 Plasma displays that only have a 3mm gap between each panel. The graphics are provided by 3 individual PCs synced via a network connection.
The Australian Events Calendar is 3 meters in length and uses 2 data projectors with a combined resolution of 2560 x 768 pixels. Multi-user interaction is controlled with our custom camera based hand-tracking software.
The water and sand effects are shaders that were created by our resident luminary James Brown. The fish, snakes and crocodile animations on the interactive floor are also shader based. The floor is 9 x 6 meters physically and 1536 x 1024 digitally requiring the pixels pushing power of an 8800, but it still runs at 60FPS.
There are many examples of interactive floors from around the world, but I think that this is currently the coolest! ( so modest )
The current version of Hyperion is a little unforgiving so we are looking forward to an update and some new features to explore.
