You need a printer (with paper and COLOUR), webcam and mic

1. go to http://ge.ecomagination.com/smartgrid/# ... ed_reality
2. print on that file on the right hand side
3. face the paper you just printed out in front of your webcam
4. watch the printout come to life!!!

you dont really need colour

Reminds me of a video I saw where these Japanese dudes would make a box like that and these 3d figures would appear instead.

I agree. I must applaud the geniuses that figured out image recognition software was used; and here I was thinking people were printing out enchanted runes.

@user: Great thread, thank you for sharing.

No printer. :(

Overlayed a paper on the screen.
Traced the image.
Filled it with my sharpie.

Tried it out and surely enough, it works.

Great find!

Either you are implying that an user by the name of "Everyone" has stated this or everyone has actually stated this, I think not. And to you, yes I am a pathetic twat.
And I would like to thank you for that derogatory comment. I am now able to see how polite you are capable of being to myself and potentially others.
Also why do I need a point? I think it is you sir that is in need of a point as you are the one trying to identify a point. So to answer your question- My point is.....here.Image

In stating this, I am solidifying your statement -

Now If I really am a "pathetic twat" as I implied then I have successfully answered your question and we shall now end this discussion...not really.

P.S. -

[duh]After stating the above which am I now? A "pathetic twat" or someone who likes stating the obvious?[/duh]
