Fitposing

yosun — Thu, 28 Nov 2013 21:29:36 +0000

Fitposing is a like that Japanese gameshow where you have to match your body to various cookie-cutter shapes. It was a half day hack for the facebook-wearables hackathon in 2013, where it won the Fitbit prize. It was also entered in the Extreme iPad Challenge, where it placed finalist.

StatusBeta – Wearable Device Testing Platform

I extended to a testing platform, a website that might look like an app store but is really just a bunch of my own Glass hacks – with virtual tryouts.

And then I entered it in the Salesforce Million Dollar Hackathon… which was a bit haphazardly managed, such that they ended up giving a tie for first place and up-ing the first place prize to giving away two million dollar prizes – however, I did not win. (I would probably not be feeling glum enough to document my hacks, if that happened.)

i guess they banned me from winning three first place prizes last time. had to enter under someone else’s name, but might have been d/q’d since i still look like myself. didn’t win.

gyroPiano

Mapping from a plane to a cylindrical geometry, for z-axis symmetry in a piano that you play around you, tap to play a note.

Along the same lines of StyleZapper (or gyroFIRE or Glass Shootout with blocks ordered cylindrically around you instead of random placement)…

This was a hack created for my talk at the SF Music Tech keynote on October 2 – Musical Instruments, inspired by Google Glass.

gyroFIRE Platform – Scoble @ TechCrunch

yosun — Wed, 11 Sep 2013 10:47:30 +0000

Scoble invited me to show off some of my Glass Hacks as the wildcard entry with a 1 in 6 chance of winning $10k in his Glass event during TechCrunch – since many of them use the gyroscope, I tried expanding to a startup-ish, generalizing a natural user interface platform based on the gyroscope – along with some other sensors, such as camera (CV), light sensor, connectivity.

The app demo’s I showed were:

Creativity – gyroSculpt
Data – Weather Glass
Shop – StyleZapper
Build – Minecraft for Glass (basically, gyroFIRE Create mode)
3D Angry Birds for Glass (really, just launching things that bounce around)

Glass Shootout

Lets you shoot around at things using the gyroscope on Glass – this evolved into gyroFIRE.com (and a more useful computer vision version that recognizes blobs around you called Reality Tagger)
