Robert lecturing in a Gypsy Mo-Cap suit

This was fun! We had a SIG-VR meeting for the Virtual Worlds project group, and wanted to demo how the Gypsy turns raw data from the joint-located potentiometers into positional data, finally producing a live stream that we can pull into Kaydara Filmbox. So I arrived early, got trussed up in a suit for the first time since delivery, and talked students through the process. Consequently I spent most of the rest of the morning in the suit talking through video chat with iChat AV. While the Gypsy is not bad to wear, this morning's comfort break couldn't couldn't come soon enough. There are some things you just don't want to see motion captured.
