Welcome to the sonart wiki!

In this project we used openkinect to detect the presence & position of a person in order to offer more information about a piece of art (Rinocrétaire) in the "art décoratifs" museum. Here is a demonstration video: http://youtu.be/f18OT1uiAIs ...and here is a webpage presenting the project : http://tangibledisplay.com/sonart

The system is composed of:

  • a kinect to detect visitors
  • a mini-PC with ubuntu and processing.org to get the data from the kinect
  • a video projector to display the information
Here is the scenario:
  • if a visitor is far, the device gives general information
  • if he gets closer, some details are shown
  • if he gets too close an alarm sound & animation is played
This project is the result of a scolar course that finished in the "Arts Décoratifs" muséum at the Louvres, Paris. Here is the course website: http://codesignlab.wp.institut-telecom.fr/2010/10/digital-creation10-student-works

Enjoy !
