Think & Create

This is an updated version of flashlight on Google Glass. This flashlight get power and control signal from Glass’s micro-usb Port. A glassware can be voice activated to toggle the flashlight. However USB OTG (USB host) function requires root in XE11. More information on Github: https://github.com/DeqingSun/USB_flashlight_Glass (continue reading…)

A recompiled JD2XX library that can work with processing. Using FTDI API can send and receive data at a much higher speed than Virtual Com Port. This works well with Arduino Duemilanove (ft232).   JD2XX4Processing orginal:http://bleyer.org/jd2xx/

Project made for Kyle McDonald’s 3D Sensing and Visualization class, ITP Fall of 2012. By Deqing Sun and Tak Cheung. This first class assignment, we were asked to build a 3D sensor from scratch. The concept came from brainstorming what devices are available to detect space. Off-the-shelf sensors like a laser range finders can gather distance and implementing this within a matrix we can create a set of 3D data. We thought sensory inputs are also inherent in every living organism too. There’s a lot we can do with that concept like putting a GPS collar on dogs. Using their travel paths to scan out pedestrian sidewalks over time. We chose goldfish as they’re conveniently swimming in a 3 dimensional medium and for their bright color it’ll be easy for our program/camera to pick them out. (continue reading…)

Plinko Poetry is a new interface for electronic poetic expression by Deqing Sun and Inessah Selditz, two Master’s Candidate students at NYU’s Interactive Telecommunications Program. Drawing source text from current @nytimes and @FoxNews tweets, players can absurdly re-contextualize news headlines that are often overloaded with meaning. (continue reading…)
