I can't quite work out what I'm going to do with this yet. As I'm on holiday, I'm just basking in the rays of massive creative potential.

Crazy, crazy.

How might this work in a shared 3D virtual environment? Gosh.

I have a tingly sensation about this cross platform (Mac, Linux and Win) software. I sense a thousand daft and brilliant things that we could do with this technology. I've already got half an idea about making a budget 3D scanner with this.

Just discovered an open source library called ARToolKit for doing crazy augmented reality stuff. The blue box ain't real, BTW.

Realxtend is an open source project based on OpenSim which is based on Second Life. It took about 5 mins to download and install. It has the ability to import and export 3D meshes, Inverse Kinematics, some sort of face mapping system and is generally very promising in principle. Is this the first real visual competitor to Second Life? Has the OpenSim project come of age?

There is a bit of room to wander around the scene before it starts to be obviously distorting. The one drawback is that any other avatars will seem to float at eye level. This won't be a problem if we replace the spooky 3D mannequins with mug-shots on a cube.
