Comment 3D can be done right-- (Score 1, Interesting) 594

Since 3D is so new, many people are choosing to criticism the entire medium via poorly generated content.
There are soooo many ways to mess up the 3D experience its not even funny.. Nobody's been properly trained in the do's and don't yet.. and so much is being rushed to market.

but when done right it's truly a compelling experience.

It's not fair to completely slam the genre of theater after seeing a few badly written plays.

Some 3D *wins*

* taking 3d photos/video with a fujifilm w3 camera.
* street fighter IV via Nvidia's 3d-Vision
* Avatar (They always maintain a proper depth of field with proper levels of focus)
* Sonic Sega Racing / TrackMania
* PORN (adult4d.com) -or shooting your own homemade with the above fujifilm

But yeah.. everything else sucks and hurts your head.

hurts it BAD. :/

one last thing, 3d projectors are always better than TVs.. *no ghosting!

Acer 5360 only 600 bux.

Comment a great time for home researchers - (Score 1) 398

Honestly, I think it's a great time in history for home-researchers. As we approach singularity there are almost an infinite amount of new technologies to combine in unique ways. Right now i'm combining 3d-projectors powered by nvidia 3d-vision, real-time 3d engines, 4th dimension to 3rd dimension mathematical transformations, and custom methods to project onto non-standard geometric surfaces.. As if peeking to the 4th dimension wasn't enough-- don't even ask what i'm doing with my roombas and the HSS hypersonic sound cannon.. ;)

Submission + - Scientific R&D At Home

An anonymous reader writes: Hello, I'm currently on the cusp of getting myself a new hobby and making some investments. There's a few areas that interest me greatly, from playing with EEG/ECG and trying to put together a DIY sleep lab, to astronomy etc. I'm somewhat hesitant to get into some of these areas because (despite the potentially short lived enjoyment factor) I'm not convinced that they are areas that would lend themselves to making new discoveries in the home and with home equipment, which is what I'd rally like to do. I've also read quite a number of articles on 'bio hacking' and the subject seemed interesting but it also seemed futile without an expensive lab (not to mention years of experience!). The question I'm trying to ask is what R&D hobbies do slashdotters have that provide them with opportunities to make interesting discoveries and potentially chart new territory in the home? Do such hobbies exist?
