Do Dee Do Dee Do
At work late again tonight. Dad runs the taxi on Monday and Tuesday so I stay at the store with him usually. Don't get to go home until 3am some nights.
We finally got a tone generator. Been needing one ashould try sculptingt the hotel for a while, now we REALLY need one.

Well. Facebook has bought out the Occulus Rift for $2Billion. Hope this means it's here to stay. Of course it does! That and Sony and Microsoft are apparently working on their own VR headsets. And there's this one obscure one I saw that uses a cell phone... Of course the Minecraft developer skipped out on the VR but who cares? Minecraft is awful except for being moddable. Cubefox FTW! Nah nevermind. Blender is much cooler.

Here's a creative idea of the day I had earlier. Someone said they still weren't happy with VR, it wasn't immersive enough for them. They want to see their hands for example. That would be cool. Now. What if. They replaced the webcam that's been placed on the Rift DevKit2... with similar technology that's in the Kinect or LeapMotion? To sit there and perform 3D capture on your extremities in front of you. Like your hands. The stem system tracks up to wrist movements depending on where you put the reciever. Not fingers. With 3D scanning technology running as well, you could reach out with your hand and make a fist. In the virtual world.

Now, being able to pick something up in the virtual world and feel it in the real world. That's a different problem altogether.

Need to get a heatsink for my HPTX2000. Maybe. Blender 2.7 was releases recently. Should have updated sooner. IT'S TABLET FRIENDLY!!!!!!!!! I needed a keyboard just to use undo during sculpting but no fucking more!!!!!
