I received greetings from TED

Autodesk Labs Marketing Director, Dominique Pouliquen, is in Edinburgh with Autodesk Labs VP, Brian Mathews. Project Photofly is part of the Autodesk Gallery Exhibit at the TED Conference. Dominique sent some pictures.

Here is the Project Photofly booth in all its glory.

Each booth visitor sits on the chair and gets a 3D model of his/her head.

There are 20 cameras that take a picture simultaneously. This is not required to use Project Photofly. This approach merely minimizes the time the person has to sit still in the booth. The same result could be achieved with 1 camera if the person sat there 20 times longer.

We have a new biological design exhibit that we have yet to show in any of our Autodesk Galleries. I believe this one will make it back to San Francisco after TED.

The PiCycle exhibit made the trip to Scotland. Autodesk Inventor was used to modify this design to save hundreds of thousands of dollars in manufacturing costs.

Complimentary copies of the Autodesk book are on hand.

Showing that vacation-like-photos-from-afar photos can actually mean work is alive in the lab.
