Hi,
First post and new to VVVV.
I am looking for some advice and guidance on a new project which I am not sure if we can manage to fully complete in vvvvv. Not due to its capacities for sure, but instead because of our inexperience with it and the learning curve vs the time we have to deliver.
We have to setup an entire circular room projected with some 3d rendered landscapes timelapses. All the circular perimetral walls and the ceiling, continously creating an inmersive environment.
Reading across the documentation I loosely understand that vvvv is capable of handling and syncronizing all the projectors sources and manage the blendings among them.
Originally, our idea was to setup some server-client syncronization and each node was to feed 3 projectors via Vioso’s Anyblend or a similar software.
Some days ago, as we got aware of VVVV, we headed towards developing the entire platform based on it.
We still think that the original scheme prevails: server syncing via boygrouping, and then splitting the sources via multiscreen and some triplehead2go. Please correct me if this asumptions are not allright or if you have come up with a better solution.
We have seen tutorials on mapping with vvvv but are not fully foreseeing how to get the warping on the rounded perimeter to blend.
I have attached some basic diagram of the setup as we imagine it.
We are producing the spherical animation and piping it into Nuke, for reprojecting it and render the cameras as the final projectors setup demands. The sources will be video files.
We ask for your advice on both: the feasibility of the solution as exposed, and some general proposed aproach to get it done.
We are looking forward to dive into vvvv and learn it for our projects, but feel somehow insecure on our first steps.
Thanks in advance
