Glow Threads 

Interactive UV light responsive t-shirts which are commercially available:

Glow Thread shirts are the first interactive glow in the dark t-shirts. You are able to to draw and create custom designs using our UV keychain light and UV Laser. Our UV keychain light is included with every purchase which allows you to draw on our shirts by touching the UV light to the shirt and write whatever you want. Using the UV laser you can draw on the shirt from up to 40ft away. Unlike other Glow Thread “imitators” where you are limited to a silk screened rectangle to draw on, our Glow Thread shirts are fully customizable and you are able to draw on every piece of the t-shirt. This means there is NO silk screened area and you are able to draw on the front, back, sides and even the sleeves.

Pinokio

An interactive animatronic lamp by Shanshan Zhou, Adam Ben-Dror, Joss Doggett - video embedded below:

Pinokio from Adam Ben-Dror on Vimeo.

Created …with Processing, Arduino, and OpenCV.

Pinokio is an exploration into the expressive and behavioural potentials of robotic computing. Customized computer code and electronic circuit design imbues Lamp with the ability to be aware of its environment, especially people, and to expresses a dynamic range of behaviour. As it negotiates its world, we the human audience can see that Lamp shares many traits possessed by animals, generating a range of emotional sympathies. In the end we may ask: Is Pinokio only a lamp? – a useful machine? Perhaps we should put the book aside and meet a new friend.

Levelhead by Julian Oliver 

Interesting 3D augmented reality game from 2008, a maze inside a cube where you guide a person around - video embedded below:

levelHead v1.0, 3 cube speed-run (spoiler!) from Julian Oliver on Vimeo.

levelHead is a spatial memory game by Julian Oliver, developed at the end of 2007, beginning 2008.

levelHead uses a hand-held solid-plastic cube as its only interface. On-screen it appears each face of the cube contains a little room, each of which are logically connected by doors.

In one of these rooms is a character. By tilting the cube the player directs this character from room to room in an effort to find the exit.

Some doors lead nowhere and will send the character back to the room they started in, a trick designed to challenge the player’s spatial memory. Which doors belong to which rooms?

There are three cubes (levels) in total, each of which are connected by a single door. Players have the goal of moving the character from room to room, cube to cube in an attempt to find the final exit door of all three cubes. If this door is found the character will appear to leave the cube, walk across the table surface and vanish…
