Winscape transforms your Plasma into a interactive Window

Waking up in the same place every morning is boring.

  • Custom Winscape software with configurable screen parameters
  • Two HD plasma displays for great contrast and wide viewing angles
  • Video playback resolution of 1920×1080 with sound
  • Still-image resolution of 4096×4096
  • Fully embedded in the wall for aesthetics and silent operation
  • Tracking of one person in the room for proper perspective presentation
  • Scheduled on/off
  • iPhone and web control of sleep/wake/scene selection

What is behind the curtain?

Two 46-inch Panasonic TC-P46G10 plasma screens bring the images to life.  They are fed by an Apple Mac Pro workstation in the adjacent room running custom OS X software called Winscape.  Using the displays’ physical layout parameters, the Winscape software renders the proper portions of the video to fill the appropriate displays using Quicktime and OpenGL.  A Wii remote reports the position of a custom-built IR-emitting necklace in the room via bluetooth.  The Winscape software uses this tracker information (when available) to shift the view for the person wearing the IR necklace.  Sleep, Wake, and Scene Selection can be controlled by a web page served by the software or by the Winscape Remote iPhone App.

Beautiful Contemporary Flat in Sweden

source – freshome.com/ Author: Lavinia

As you probably already figured out, this lovely apartment is located in Sweden and heavily captures the North-European interior design style. The flat has two separated rooms and a living room that is connected to the hallway and the kitchen. You can see more on how this home is organized in the plan of the apartment below. A functional and highly aesthetic living-room is the apartment’s main “asset”. It features no less than six windows which provide a large quantity of natural light throughout the day. The living room also houses a dining table, a sofa and a coffee table. A nice open floor plan connects the living room with the all-equipped kitchen. A home cinema system is installed in a separate room. Outside there is a cozy terrace for relaxing and enjoying a cup of coffee in spring mornings.-via Alvhem
