Samples from SIGGRAPH 2009

Here are some pictures from SIGGRAPH 2009 in New Orleans.
Google had their tent at SIGGRAPH.
Sigh: no public transportation directions yet for RTA in New Orleans in Google Maps. Note to self: write to RTA.
There were several booths displaying a virtual reality experience. In this showcase, the actor is fitted with a facial device (which show up as bright colored lights on camera but are not so in real life). In this example, she is channeling a mean dude. On the second floor, another actress was channeling a digital rhino.
This dude from France demonstrated a cool virtual goggle that can interact with game pieces on a virtual display. Practical implications: Virtual RPG.
