CS 699, week 7

Accomplishment:

This week we wrote TCP Communication python scripts to realize launching. We set all the sub nodes as servers and the head node as client. There were some errors to start executable on the head node because of the firewall setting. But thanks for Kevin and Ross’s help, we successfully solved it. After that, we made some fine tuning of the position of each monitor for calibration. The performance looks good.

Challenges:

Still, the video shown on different monitors will have a few frame difference. When the video finished and looped to the start point, the frame difference became more apparent.  But we plan to jump to the next 3D scene project since the performance of the video without looping looks good.

Plan for next week:

  1. Convert 3D video project’s object to a Prefab.
  2. Create a new 3D scene project and finish the presetting part.
  3. Try to add a Kinect system to the environment for head tracking.
