The idea was to use a Kinect with the immersive projection which would sense the guests and project the running man from the first room as walking with the guests here. The man would depict the reflection of the guest to make the guest feel like influencing the artists world. The guests playing the Pac-man and tree in the first room and then getting attached to the character again in the second room with make the experience more continuous and exciting. We started working on building the interaction and animation for this. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Materials<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We tested several materials for the screen in room 1. Our specification was a material that was transparent enough to project on both sides of the screens. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We tested on different materials like fabric, projection screens and acrylic surface of different colors to understand the projection fall. The material most liked by our client was a milky white projection screen on a transparent acrylic board.

Beyond that we will have to join 2 screens leaving behind a seam. So we decided to order a 6ft wide and 10ft tall screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We also discovered that the 1080X1920p Optoma projectors we received from the Mattress Factory did not provide the resolution the artist expected. So we stared a back and forth between them to provide us with 4k projects. To sync 5 projectors with 1 desktop we built a custom PC which with the support of 2 graphic cards ca support 5 4k projectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img width=\"404\" height=\"506\" src=\"https:\/\/projects.etc.cmu.edu\/soulrounded\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Screenshot-2022-04-18-at-1.29.54-AM.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-515\" srcset=\"https:\/\/projects.etc.cmu.edu\/soulrounded\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Screenshot-2022-04-18-at-1.29.54-AM.png 404w, https:\/\/projects.etc.cmu.edu\/soulrounded\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Screenshot-2022-04-18-at-1.29.54-AM-240x300.png 240w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 404px) 100vw, 404px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>User Flow Previous week&#8217;s playtests suggested improvements in our user flow to enhance the guest&#8217;s experience.
