How about that? Kinect without the camera or image detection mechanism? And it's more responsive than the Kinect?
The `Smart Laser Projector' (SLP) is a modified laser-based projector capable of displaying graphics on a variety of non-prepared surfaces, while simultaneously using the beam (at the same or different wavelength or polarization) as a LIDAR probe gathering information about that surface position, orientation and shape, fine texture, spectral reflectance and even relative motion. It is therefore possible to synthesize an artificial surface reflectance, or to correct geometrical warp, all in real time and without the need of calibrating a camera and a projector. We have developed two prototypes, one working in raster-scan mode, and another in vector graphics mode. Our previous research on the Smart Laser Scanner, scoreLight and Sticky Light can be seen as special applications of the SLP in vector-graphics mode.
Meta Perception: Human Interface
Reminds me of that 80's TV show Automan and his sidekick Cursor. How much longer until I get my glowing Countach?
