Video Projections on 3D Objects

As Pieter I always wondered how the projections on buildings work, how they match the projected animations with the objects.

Last November there was a workshop for the students of Hochschule für Gestaltung Schwäbisch Gmünd where I studied. They learned how to do this with vvvv, a toolkit for real time video synthesis. The position of the spectator is of course quite important to obtain the desired visual effect.

If you want to try it out yourself, then you might want to read this guide on the vvvv website: How To Project On 3D Geometry.

You can see the results of the workshop here, unfortunately they only used the scale model to show the final animations:
