You want a high-bandwidth interface to computing? Combine this with Dynamicland technology (https://dynamicland.org/). This makes way more sense than creepy neural interfaces. Best of all, it would allow people to freely collaborate on things in real life.

That is just stunning. I guess Disney Imagenineering dept. would love to do some cools things with this. Or perhaps they already have this capability? These are the kind of things were I'd like to have a commercial version already! Edit: Also, the url in the original post is from 2016! wow! (@dang maybe add (2016) to the title?)
Disney has a (poor) version of this idea. They project an animation onto wedding cakes at their resorts. They're pre-rendered though, rather than dynamic like this. It'd be fascinating to see what uses they could come up with for this stuff.
Disney does a lot of projection mapping in the parks right now, but it's all (AFAIK) the traditional, pre-rendered type, with animations projected onto large static surfaces like the Magic Kingdom's castle, or onto animatronics with pre-planned motion paths.
I'm having a little trouble visualizing how this non-rigid projection mapping could get applied in a practical way in the parks today, mostly because it seems like it has a fairly small "active" area (determined by your projector and sensor resolution, essentially). I could imagine this being used in a parade or stage show, for example, but this system seems like it would be pretty restrictive as to where the performers could move and remain in the projection space.

#64Very cool!

How would you project it onto the person without giving away their position?

Very cool, a sort of live-action cgi capability. Hope it doesn't easily scale out to larger spaces and crowds, or the current tech industry would soon have public spaces filled with ads projected on peoples belongings.
Going to start ordering everything coated in vantablack then... https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vantablack
Unless you're Anish Kapoor you'll have to settle for Black 3.0 https://www.culturehustleusa.com/products/black-3-0-the-worl...

The tech industry would soon have some very expensive equipment destroyed.

Plus, Black 3.0 isn't toxic like Vantablack.

#69The latency is way more impressive than the fps
Edit: the video gets the point across more effectively IMO: https://youtu.be/-bh1MHuA5jU

I doubt it would ever be used on private property like that, but we absolutely will see this tech used in the advertising space.
