Been creating a few “Little Planets” from 360 degree panoramas. The technique is fairly simple. Hopefully we’ll create and post one based on the views from our office soon. Future developments include creating a moving image version using HD video cameras syncronised and stitched together.
I found this great site this morning about a social experiment that happened in New York. Kacie Kinzer from Tisch ITP came up with these amazing little robots, aiming to get from the north to the south of the hazardous NYC. The Tweenbots can only move in one direction though, so are directly reliant on the public to put them on the right path.
I can’t help but wonder how long something like this would last in one of our cities here.
