Very nice work, I hope to see some fun games (and even practical applications) come from this. It's just a shame it can't be as accurate as JCLs project is due to hardware.

On that note, how well can a camera track IR light seperate of other light sources? Could, with a non-out-of-the-box solution with some IR lights be more accurate than a simple light source?
Well, the DSi game, which I mention in the video and my blog post, uses this 3d effect. But that is also the only use I know.

IR lights seem to appear as pretty bright when recorded by the N900's front camera. Someone would have to test how well tracking of IR lights works.

That sounds pretty interesting and would certainly look cool, but I'm more into games than such serious stuff.



Everyone: Sorry, there is nothing to install (yet). I don't know set when/if I'll publish something.
