Greg, the guy who turned me on to Pangaea, pointed me to another project going on at Olin College: "Another project you might like is the Olin College Marauder's Map. Writeup here: http://www.olinprojects.com/the-marauders-map/ Paper is here: http://www.springerlink.com/content/b519q72254lkuj05/
(it's not freely available :-/). It's a Wifi localization system some
friends of mine at Olin put together to automatically figure out what
room you're in and then draw you on a big harry-potter style map
webapp. I put together an Android client, and its very neat to be able
to look and see where people are from my phone!" Thanks Greg. Now, if I can get a the wii remote guts to fit into a wand and write some code to respond to gestures..... 'Lumos!' |
