[Papervision3D] New Boffswana AR Project - Living Sasquatch

[Clint Hannaford]

Hi, 

Sorry for the late response, was on a short holiday after the launch to recoup.

Yeah, the AR component of releas3D is a commercial(developers) license of ARToolkit/FLARToolkit.

But there's a quite a lot more to our Releas3D package than just the AR tracking component (which in reality is only a small part of a much larger system), we've implemented a lot of character animation features and workflows we've built up over the course of a few projects (Save Your Sensible and Optus WhaleSong - see www.boffswana.com for links).

It also includes a new Entity/Representation Manager framework that we hope will assist in furthering our development of not only 3D/AR based projects, but also game and interactive development, both 2D and 3D.  It aims to modularize entity based game development, allowing us to use the components across various projects, wether they are model/logic or visual representations and effects.

We've also implemented a means to record MovieClips as videos straight out of the flash client (pretty apparent), which isn't as straight forward as it sounds (with fluctuating papervision framerates and synching sounds and such), and we've included this into our Releas3D package as well.

We'll obviously be still working hard to improve on the AR tracking side of things with our developer license of the ARToolkit, trying to reduce the framerate overhead it brings to flash, as well as pushing what we can achieve in Papervision.

Regards,

Clint.

That's great piece of work Clint.

Can you tell us more about your AR engine? I love the idea of encoding  
video, a lot of possibilities there.
