inspiration for compcam

For computational camera, we were interested in how people shape structures with their movement. Some examples are play-doh, sculpting.

Traditionally this was always done with a motion capture system, which required cameras that costs a fortune and complex setting (such as a blue screen, tracking balls, etc). This is way too expensive. We wanted to see how much information we could get from just a one camera system!!

Ideally we would be able to create landscapes such as the drawing from the great Zaha Hadid.
