Interactive 3D Chalk Murals By Kurt WennerImagine walking down the road and suddenly walking into the middle of a big chasm that was apparently on the path you’re taking. Upon realization, fear or surprise might grip you as your brain tells you that you’re going to fall– but you didn’t. It turns out that this is just one of many art chalk murals around the globe.Kurt Wenner is one of the many artists specializing in creating interactive 3D art chalk pieces. The former NASA employee prefers to draw on streets, sidewalks, and other public spaces. The more interaction it can get, the better! Check out the interview by Wired we've linked above, where he discusses the impactful nature of his work. According to Wenner, the beauty of his work is how it interacts with the environment, the spectators, the public, as well as the point of view of the viewer. From there, he says that it’s fantastic to see how the art piece creates the relationship between all the previously stated elements. #3D #art #chalk #murals #KurtWenner #NASA #interactive #artmurals #chalkart #3Dart 
Researchers Stack "Holobricks" to Generate Large Seamless Holographic 3D ImagesShould this be fully produced and utilized in the future, this newest technology could enable scalable holographic 3D displays. Imagine the possibilities!Developed by researchers from the University of Cambridge and Disney Research, the holobrick is a proof-of-concept tool. The holobrick can tile holograms together to form a large seamless 3D image. The research was done to hopefully provide a way to procure a method for generating high-quality visual experiences. “Delivering an adequate 3D experience using the current technology is a huge challenge,” explained Professor Daping Chu from Cambridge’s Department of Engineering, who led the research. “Over the past ten years, we’ve been working with our industrial partners to develop holographic displays which allow the simultaneous realization of large size and large field-of-view, which needs to be matched with a hologram with a large optical information content.”The holobrick unit was based on a seven-year-old concept developed by CAPE with Disney Research. They utilized the coarse integrated holographic displays for angularly tiled 3D images to form the holograms with large viewing areas and fields of view. Image credit: Li, et.al #research #display #holograms #3D #Disney #UniversityofCambridge #holobrick
