Fabrication Continued Step 1: Complete pixel map. Connect power source and Ethernet network connection. Calibrate fixture DMX in MadMapper software Step 2: Implement geometric analysis related to spatial logics from 2D designs to 3D objects. Import 3D object from Blender as obj file into MadMapper. Set up projector. Begin projection mapping calibration. Test and iterate. Need…

Fabrication Time. Learning how to put it all together. Creating Blender mock-stages was fun, but prepping them to be built IRL was no joke. I watched a great tutorial that taught me how to add CAD-like dimensions to my Blender sketches that was very helpful. From there I was able to readily adapt my 3D…

Capstone Work Report 2 Environmental projection mapping capitalizes on the form of a space or shape, transforming it to tell a story and share an experience.  During the last two weeks I did extensive research into the industry and marketability of projection and pixel mapping and created a mood board to visually depict my interests….

Capstone Work Report 1

Work Report #1 During my proof of concept, I was able to successfully pixel map and projection map a 2D surface. By doing so, I learned the basic principles of masking, layer order, DMX outputs, and external pixel controllers configurations. Research: Tutorials on how to utilize MapMapper software capabilities. Tutorials on Adatek pixel controllers, namely…
