In this last exercise, we’ll apply what we have learnt on X-Maps with an architectural building and discover the 3D Engine available in Kinetic Designer.
We will learn to:
- Do a projection study in Kinetic Designer
- Apply a manual warping of X-Maps to architectural structures
- Import a 3D model and set up a 3D scene
- Automatically compute the position of a projector in the 3D scene
- Play a show using the 3D scene and several render surfaces
- Use a Calendar device to trigger a task
Required equipment:
- 1x pico projector
- 1x mapping box
- 1x castle kit
- Media kit (incl. 3D model of the castle) and PSD template file
Place the castle in the mapping Box and ensure the projection fully covers it.
Summary
This tutorial is divided into 4 parts:
- Architectural 1 – Projection study and simulation
- Architectural 2 – warping using X-Maps
- Architectural 3 – Calibrate a projector in 3D
- Architectural 4 – Program an architectural mapping show
Media kit
- Download the media kit
- Download the full project Requires rework with new media kit
