    We had our look at the first teaser poster and here is a second great poster for the Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson CGI animated adaptation of Herge’s cool characters. The Adventures Of Tintin: The Secret Of The Unicorn. The first poster looked way better however, I’m so excited to watch the movie afterall.

    Tintin was directed by Steven Spielberg, produced by Peter Jackson with a script co-written by Steven Moffat, Edgar Wright and Joe Cornish. The cast includes Jamie Bell as Tintin, Andy Serkis as Captain Haddock, Simon Pegg & Nick Frost as Thompson & Thompson, Daniel Craig as the villain Red Rackham, and Toby Jones as Silk.

    The animated movie, in the works at Weta Digital, will hit US theaters in 3D on December 23rd

    Tintin is coming! and here is the first poster for the Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson CGI animated adaptation of Herge’s beloved characters. The Adventures Of Tintin: The Secret Of The Unicorn. Empire has teased the official poster and it’s quite cool for a movie with a lot of interest. I also like the epic pirate ship/airplane background imagery that definitely indicates this is going to be quite an adventure.

  • Glasses Free 3D on iPad 2 and iPhone 4 via Head Tracking

    Jeremie Francone and Laurence Nigay from the Laboratory of Informatics of Grenoble at the EHCI Research Group have created an amazing tech demoes by combining head-tracking technology that uses the iPad’s front facing camera to deliver glasses-free 3D experience that doesn’t require the accelerometer, but it’s entirely based on the camera and the movements of a user’s head in front of the screen. The position of the user will give the illusion of tridimensional objects moving on the display.

    We track the head of the user with the front facing camera in order to create a glasses-free monocular 3D display. Such spatially-aware mobile display enables to improve the possibilities of interaction. It does not use the accelerometers and relies only on the front camera.

    Francone and Nigay were inspired by the work of Johnny Lee who built a similar system using a Wii system.

    Glasses-free 3D has been deployed by Nintendo in its latest 3DS portable gaming console, and a series of reports in the past suggested Apple could implement glasses-free 3D in the future. The app does not yet appear to be available for download.
