… aber ein großer Strich für mich! Der Strich auf diesem Screenshot zeugt davon, dass dank der Hilfe von Jens Wunderling der GeoCane die gesetzten und gespeicherten Waypoints richtig (!) als KML-Datei ausgibt. Die Punkte werden verbunden und bilden den gelaufenen Weg als Linie aus, der dann in GoogleEarth importiert den gelaufenen Weg revue passieren lässt. Die KML-Datei kann man zum Testen hier runterladen.

Google will die neue Funktion, die eine 360° Straßenansicht ermöglicht, für folgende Städte starten: San Francisco, New York, Las Vegas, Miami und Denver. (Beispiel Link). So long, wie es aussehen soll vermittelt das Video.

Text aus wired.com/archive. Sunny Bains (www.sunnybains.com/blog) wrote about self-repairing micromachines in issue 13.09.
For six weird weeks in the fall of 2004, Udo Wächter had an unerring sense of direction. Every morning after he got out of the shower, Wächter, a sysadmin at the University of Osnabrück in Germany, put on a wide beige belt lined with 13 vibrating pads — the same weight-and-gear modules that make a cell phone judder. On the outside of the belt were a power supply and a sensor that detected Earth’s magnetic field. Whichever buzzer was pointing north would go off. Constantly.
“It was slightly strange at first,” Wächter says, “though on the bike, it was great.” He started to become more aware of the peregrinations he had to make while trying to reach a destination. “I finally understood just how much roads actually wind,” he says. He learned to deal with the stares he got in the library, his belt humming like a distant chain saw. Deep into the experiment, Wächter says, “I suddenly realized that my perception had shifted. I had some kind of internal map of the city in my head. I could always find my way home. Eventually, I felt I couldn’t get lost, even in a completely new place.”

Here’s the summit of Mount Hood, as rendered by Google Earth:

The same view with a USGS topographic map overlay:

In Google Earth, you can adjust the opacity of overlays. Here’s the topo map at about 20% and the aerial photo at about 60%:

Blogged at The Mobile Learning Blog. Here’s a idea for a really cool mobile phone. A curved LCD screen renders augmented reality data in front of the user’s POV, using a camera mounted on one (or both) side(s). The LCD screen is touch sensitive on the *outside* to allow the user to touch the visor and interact with the device. The visor can be stowed over the head (like a headphone band) when not in use. Smaller, more streamlined earphones could make the phone lighter and sleeker. Information about the user’s surroundings could be provided to the user in real time, as well as playing of related video or audio content.

Augemented Reality – Beschreibung entnommen aus Wikipedia: Unter Erweiterte Realität (englisch augmented reality) versteht man die rechnergestützte Erweiterung der Realitätswahrnehmung durch virtuelle Überlagerung von Information in Echtzeit. Diese Information kann alle menschlichen Sinnesmodalitäten ansprechen. Häufig wird jedoch mit erweiterter Realität nur die visuelle Darstellung von Informationen gemeint. Zum Einsatz kommen Techniken der virtuellen Realität. Read the rest of this entry »

Neuroscience researchers from the McGovern Institute for Brain Research at MIT developed what seems to be a pretty good computer model of the visual system: “People have been talking about computers imitating the brain for a long time,” said Poggio, who is also the Eugene McDermott Professor in the Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences and the co-director of the Center for Biological and Computational Learning at MIT. “That was Alan Turing’s original motivation in the 1940s. But in the last 50 years, computer science and AI have developed independently of neuroscience. Our work is biologically inspired computer science.” Read the rest of this entry »

Aufbauend auf dieser Idee (Blogeintrag vom 20.Februar 2007). Probiere ich grade ein wenig rum:

Bild vergrößern (800×600 Pixel).
