This video is a sample of one of the entries from
Microsoft PDC 2008 ShowOff. We recommend downloading the high-quality WMV of this video for the best experience.
Title of the video
Multi-channel Virtual Earth
Description
This video shows a multi-channel version of the Virtual Earth control running on a custom curved screen that provides a 180 degree horizontal field of view. The screen is created using eight high-end full 1080p projectors with a professional warping
and blending system. The code is a modified version of a sample project with a custom camera class to properly adjust the FOV and camera offset for each projector and some code to synchronize the camera position across the network. The system is being controlled
with a wireless Xbox 360 controller.
