What are you working on at the moment?

[benny!]

Studying my arse off for parallel programming exam on tuesday, then I'll get started working on the wireframe challenge ....unless I have to write scientific computing exam on 26th, but then I stall have at least 2 days to try and produce something.

Good luck with the exam!

Maybe I should do it in processing... or maybe pure assembly! That might be interesting.

Yeah, a processing entry would rock. Did not know that you are into processing programming. Anyway, looking
forward to see your entry!

My re-working of the Barcode Battler website is complete. There are some updates to do, but all of the old content has been ported into the new Ajax system with interactive features in Flash instead of JavaScript.

True motion blur..

Just testing at this stage

looking good mate!

Cheers mate - I am just playing around with it at the moment - it runs a little choppy as I'm doing it in software but I've thought of some ways of speeding it up.

Once i have the FPS up a bit I'll think of a better effect to show it off.

[combatking0]

It looks smooth.

I'm still working out the new GUI on Flash Develop. I can use it for simple procedural graphics now, but not much else.

Until I can figure it out properly, I will continue to use Flash 8 so I can get my programs out on time.

Here's a picture of what I'm working on at the moment:

Is that what you get paid to make?

If so, fair play to you.

[combatking0]

I'm not paid to make these, but the school uses them.

[Shockwave]

Then they should pay you!

[Hotshot]

Then they should pay you!

I agree because you did all the work on making the software!

[Hotshot]

I have made two demo of it and nothing new as it just redoing stuff that I have been doing

[combatking0]

I can't quite read the text at the top, but I like the font.

Then they should pay you!

I also agree, but for some reason I get taxed twice on any extra income I make, so I'm worse off if I get paid extra, even for overtime. It must be a mistake in my tax code or something.

Sobel Edge Detection filter.

Got it working, now I need to make it run fast!

[combatking0]

Groovy. Mine is a little more basic, but I'm still exploring the capabilities of the Flash bitmapData object.

Also, I'm not sucking my thumb in this picture - I'm propping my head up because it's quite late

[Shockwave]

That looks really cool tony!

[combatking0]

Thanks, the effect isn't live though, it just works on a snapshot.

I'll add other effects to the program this week.

I decided to try my hand at some pixel art.. I think it went well; spent alot of time studying others' stuff, then chose a palette and ran with it.

[Shockwave]

Yep, it looks nice

Is there anything you can't do on a computer?

[ferris]

Yep, it looks nice

Thanks!

Bahaha. Not the first time I've heard that Actually there are quite a few, like 3D modelling.. I've tried many times, but I always fail. Guess some things just aren't meant to be, hehe.

By the way I really liked your sobel implementation; looked really smooth. Can't wait to see it in action .

Thanks,  to be totally honest with you I found that when I've used the method on photos then it seems to be badly affected by noise.. I had to tweak the sensitivity of the routine to take the noise down to a low intensity and the amount of tweak needed varies a lot depending on the picture being scanned.

It won't matter in the demo because I'll be dealing with a clean image without noise.  If this was being used to process still images though I definitely think that a gausian  blur of the image before the sobel filter was applied would result in cleaner and better looking images.
