Hello everyone! I’m writing from Turin, Italy, while my startup buddy is in the USA to showcase our solution in a private exhibition in Seattle, Washington (as we told you in a previous post). I miss him a bit, but luckily he’ll be back next week, maybe with good news for us!

Hello everyone!

This last week has been very very hard and challenging for us. We are currently doing a lot of things:

大家好 and welcome to the 4th episode of this blog serie about our preparation for the WTT exhibition! (If you miss older episodes, you can begin from here).

This week we’ve another great announcement for you all: our Kinect-based virtual reality solution will be showcased at a private tech event at the beginning of November.

Hi everyone! Today I have great news for you all: all work scheduled for the past week by me and Gianni has been completed!

Gianni has made a great work: now all the Kinect system is able to auto-configure itself in every situation: you can add a Kinect sensor, remove it, put on fire all the system… and after some seconds, voilà! It can work again without the user pressing even a single key. Very cool, isn’t it? Besides that, all communications have been optimized, so the frame rate and bandwith are almost optimal, now.

Hi everyone! How has it been your weekend? I hope well…I’ve relaxed a bit, after a week of work.

In the past week, in preparation for WTT, we’ve bought some fancy hardware for the demo. First of all, we bought an additional Microsoft Kinect needed for our tracking solution. Then, we bought some fantastic covers for our Oculus Rift and Gear VR from Bangkok (http://vrcover.com/)! But… what is a cover for the Oculus Rift?

Hi to all! As promised, I’ll update you about our work in preparation for the WTT here in Turin.

First of all, we bought some fantastic Kinect stands! As a colleague of ours says: "they’re like selfie sticks, but for Kinect" :-) You can see one of them in the photo in this post! Stands are very useful to put Kinect sensors at a certain height above the floor, in an elegant way. Until now, we used card boxes: they are great for lab experiments, but very unelegant and unreliable for a public place use.
