A few years back I picked up Anomaly and Shifter, a couple of Augmented Reality books that use your smartphone/tablet to add additional content to the story. Stopped in at Barnes & Noble today and see that the sequel to Anomaly has been released. I posted a quick video demo of it on Facebook...

Haven't received many emails from Tesla, so was all excited :D last night when one showed up. It quickly turned to disappointment :( as it was TESLA LOCAL UPDATES JANUARY 2018 (have they sent this to others in the past?) The last two emails I'd received were in November (the Update on your...

I was blown away by the picture he starts talking about at 11:40 - the three images below are all the same picture*, just with a different color palette loaded. He also has palettes for each scene at different times of day, for nine variations in all. This was done to reduce ROM requirements...
