Interactive Stereoscopic Installations: visual rupture with the Diplopiascope

Video – Camera – Imaging Projects / By Ibrar Ayyub

What is it? This is an ongoing project that i’ve been working on to see the potential of interactive stereoscopic installations in examining the perceptual process. I use a setup that i’ve called a Diplopiascope to investigate this. The Diplopiascope has gone through a few changes but basically it is a stereoscopic viewer that allows […]

Your Image on an Arduino! – TFT LCD Screen Guide

Video – Camera – Imaging Projects / By Ibrar Ayyub

Have you ever heard of TFT LCD screens? They are great ways to display information from your Arduino, or display pictures. The Arduino team just released an official TFT LCD screen with their new Robot at Maker Faire 2013. It’s very easy to get started with!! This tutorial will show you how to get the

Light Painters Palette aka Light Box

Today I’m going to show you how I made my “light painters palette” aka light box. If your into electronics and photography than this is probably something you are going to like. Supplies: -Arduino (I’m using a arduino pro mini which requires a ftdi basic to program, But an uno or leaonardo… would work just fine) –Tri

How To Build Arduino Thermal Camera

Projects, Video – Camera – Imaging Projects / By Ibrar Ayyub

I recently worked on an Arduino project to create a low-cost thermal camera using an IR sensor and pan/tilt hardware. When observing the device image on the left, you will notice an acoustic range finder attached to the top as well. The tool functions by scanning a pattern of dots and constructing the picture gradually.

Arduino Lens Controller – Synchronized Zoom/Focus with Wii Classic Controller

Video – Camera – Imaging Projects / By Ibrar Ayyub

My Lumix GH2 Micro Four Thirds camera not only shoots fantastic high definition videos, but with inexpensive adapters I can use it with older manual lenses that are cheap and often very high quality. I shoot a lot of performance videos for my daughter’s dance studio, and I use an f3.5 Nikon 28-85mm zoom lens because it provides a

Open Source Camera Quadcopter

Video – Camera – Imaging Projects / By Ibrar Ayyub

Introduction When our team was initially assigned the task of transforming this project from a cinematography quadcopter to a more practical sensor quadcopter, we made the decision to redesign the frame. This decision was not taken lightly, but it was concluded that one of the reasons the drone had been unable to fly thus far

Arduino controlled Rotary Stewart Platform

Video – Camera – Imaging Projects / By Ibrar Ayyub

This instructable is about building a Rotary Stewart Platform. It allows to position its moving platform in six degrees of freedom. This specific platform is designed to be able to position a DSLR or any other digital camera. This version of Stewart Platform uses instead of linear actuators just ordinary hobbyist servos for motion. Whole

Capture the image of a falling object using Arduino

Video – Camera – Imaging Projects / By Ibrar Ayyub

The aim of this project is to create a setup to capture the image of a falling object or any object in motion at a precise time using a DSLR and Arduino microcontroller. It can be done in many different ways, but the method I tried is illustrated below. Figure 1: Schematic of the setup

Digital Zoetrope using Arduino

Video – Camera – Imaging Projects / By Ibrar Ayyub

A zoetrope is a mechanical device that animates a series of pictures by spinning them fast enough that the images appear to merge together and move, My digital zoetrope works on a similar principal, by flashing the LEDs while they are spinning it is possible to display text, patterns and possible even simple animations. My
