Virtual Graffiti Artist Paints in 3D


Wednesday, January 30, 2008

If spray paint on a bare wall is too 1990s for you..

 

“Tagged in Motion” is a project by Hamburg-based graffiti artist DAIM that creates real-time graffiti in 3D — or a virtual world of graffiti art seen through 3D glasses.

The graffiti is captured by utilizing a three-camera scheme. The artist is able to smear the virtual paint across the empty gallery space using an ARToolKIT (or Augmented Reality Toolkit), which captures the artists exact motion as he or she paints.

This is big news is the techno-gadget/virtual graffiti world –  as the graffiti artists search for ways to perform their art legally. Bloggers weigh in here and here.
