Project Holodeck
Welcome to the Holodeck homepage!Holodeck (or Physically Rendered Environment (PRE) is research on the computer control of deformable surfaces user can stand on. In effect, idea is that the surface on which we are standing is deformed in the real time to simulate feeling and slipperiness of the terrain in the scope of augmented reality simulation.
Deformation is achived by displacing moxels, similarly like pinpoint toy on the picture below works:
At the moment, Holodeck system is completely based on computer simulation. We plan to add physical prototype in the later stage of the project.
