Unity in 3D

10/31/2010

Besides using a 120Hz projector or the drivers from iz3d.com, I recently searched for other options to turn my Unity projects and experiments into stereoscopic applications.
The following links came to my attention:

  1. http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/63874-stereo-3D-in-Unity-3D?highlight=anaglyph
  2. http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/61759-3D-Anaglyph-System-for-Unity-iPhone-Basic-Pro-and-Unity-Free?highlight=anaglyph
Both are anaglyph systems and even with high_quality anaglyph glasses, the colors in your scenes will suffer. However, I found it to be a cheap and effective way to provide the additional depth cues to my participants. The second link comes at a price of €15, the first link is for free. I have yet to try link #2. Any feedback is appreciated.

Looking for anaglyph glasses?
  1. http://www.amazon.de/Professionelle-3D-Brille-Anaglyphenbrille-Pilot/dp/B003HC6IRW/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1288533575&sr=8-2
  2. http://www.amazon.de/Professionelle-3D-Brille-Anaglyphenbrille-Captain/dp/B003ESNHDM/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1288533575&sr=8-7
I found those glasses to be of high quality and beyond my expectations.
While the "Pilot Style" seems to be a popular style (link #1), the "Captain Style" glasses (link #2) are more suitable to wear on top of normal glasses. I went for #2 as my patients wear glasses quite often.
I am not sure whether those glasses are the same models on amazon.com. See for yourself: Pilot Style Captain Style

Clinical Trial

Quick update: I'm working for my clinical trial in my rehab clinic of choice in the Bavarian Mountains. A stable and fast internet connection is as far from reality as a local winter without snow. Needless to say, it's a pain to update the website with a 56k modem (yes! those still exist).
I'm working long shifts to create 3D models for rehab and I'm already working with 2 intense single-cases and therapists nonstop. It's gonna be such an exciting 6 months. The Emotiv EPOC is working pretty well and I'm gonna test it with participants soonish.
In the meanwhile I got a prize for Best Student Paper for the ICDVRAT in Chile. Cool stuff! :)
Looking forward to the upcoming conferences next year. I'm gonna have huge loads of data to present.

I'll try to throw in an update occasionally, but it's not gonna be too frequent. Possibly a few screenshots of upcoming models and progress on all of my tests and applications. I'm still praying that my patients will be able to handle those applications. It's looking good so far with two very enthuiastic neurology patients. Back to work!
