18m x 1,5m (2008) - Final tweaking just before the IFA starts

This was the second multitouch application I was working on at q-bus. Since we could build upon our framework developed for cebit 2008 we concentrated on content presentation and interaction design. The multitouch display with the huge dimension of 18m x 1.5m and a resolution of 12600 x 1050 was driven by cluster of synced render clients.

Despite two interactive scenes with a lot work in python scripting, I also got the chance with work with GLSL shaders to distort the scroll texts in the background. For an hourly showcase application, I also wrote several particle paint methods which also reacted on FFT-driven sound analysis.
