What would it be like to have a real theatre in your room. With you and your friends as the main character?
For the past decade, the home entertainment has progressed dramatically, first it was the surround sound, then came the flat screen televisions and now the 3D flat screens have invaded our living rooms. Although they all created an entertaining experience, they all suffered from the same problem. The viewer was always passive. The real 3d home theatre is taking on this problem and adds the user interaction in the experience. The users can create their own personal dramas on our tiny theatre.
So we made a smal theatre as big as a tv screen. With the lights, the curtains and all.
2 "stickmen" are the stars on stage. Their arms are attached with wires to 4 smal motors attached to the ceiling of the theatre.
To get these stickmen to dance one person or two need to move their arms in front of a kinekt. This kinect is connected with a a program written in Processing. This program controls the motors with the amount of movement detected by the kinekt.
