============================ "Elliot Woods 2 days ago great! i was hoping to make something similar, so really excited about this. My desire was to be able to draw across all the screens at once from a mobile device, using structured light generated in a web browser and a dedicated iPhone/other app. This looks really well developed and with a great team pushing the possibilities. Congratulations!" =========== "Philip Han 2 days ago I've always imagined something like this!!!



Time over time I wondered how to merge multiple projectors into one screen but I realized pretty quickly that it wasn't all too hard and using Windows 7 or Mac OS X you can do it quite easily...



But to have this in a Mobile App though? Amazing! Maybe NFC could open up crazy things like 1:1 Virtual Reality tracking close to an object to see things that wouldn't be there without using ugly QR codes!" ============================
