While hardworking scientists and crafty magicians have devoted their entire lives trying to come up with ways that can help man achieve the almost impossible feat of being able to walk on water, developers at Arcstream have found a better, easier and simpler way to replicate the biblical feat. Using “fake” water, the Arcstream AV interactive “Living Image” exhibit at the Science Museum in South Kensington, London lets users enjoy the simulation of walking on water. Using a 6,500 lumens overhead projector fitted with a range of sensors, Living Image projects the 1024 x 768 image of water on the floor display which changes with the visitor’s interaction with it in real-time. Special infrared sensors let more than one persons walk onto the surface of the “water”, and we absolutely love the other psychedelic stuff this thing does that I’m sure would be doubly interesting after a joint or two! Check out the amazing video of Living Image after the jump.
