Invented in the late 1800s, kinegrams were a simple form of animation that predated the first animated movies. A team from MIT has now given the technology a digital makeover, in the form of the one-off KineCAM.Continue ReadingCategory: Photography, Te… Continue reading Experimental KineCAM produces paper photos that can be made to move
We make no apologies for being hardware focused here at Hackaday, but that doesn’t mean we aren’t occasionally impressed by a particularly inspired feat of bit wrangling. For example, [t3ssel8r] …read more Continue reading A Math Based Personality For Games
We’ve all seen 3D printed zoetropes, and drawn flip book animations in the corner of notebooks. The shifting, fluid shape of the layers forming on a 3D printer is satisfying. …read more Continue reading Flip Book Animations On The Inside Of 3D Prints
Early last year, MyHeritage made use of deepfake technology to bring old photos of deceased loved ones to life. Deep Nostalgia went viral and more than 100 million animations have since been created. Now the genealogy company is back with LiveStory, wh… Continue reading Deepfake tool gives animated life stories of dead relatives a voice
All things considered, it’s pretty easy to get one LED is a strip to light up sequentially, and have it bounce back and forth. Turning that simple animation into a …read more Continue reading No LEDs Required for This Servo-Controlled Larson Scanner
[Staacks]’s Blender plugin to animate growth is behind the sweet animation seen above. It’s an add-on that cleverly makes creating slick growth animations easier when using Blender. It isn’t limited …read more Continue reading Watch Blender Plugin Make Animated PCB Traces (and More)
Stop motion animation is notoriously difficult to pull off well, in large part because it’s a mind-numbingly slow process. Each frame in the final video is a separate photograph, and …read more Continue reading Mastering Stop Motion through Machine Learning
Back before the days of computers, animation was drawn by hand. We typically think of cartoons and animated feature films, but there were other genres as well. For example, animation …read more Continue reading Animation in Education, 1950’s Style
Join us on Wednesday, June 16 at noon Pacific for the Art with Technology Hack Chat with Cory Collins! As hackers, we naturally see the beauty of technology. We often …read more Continue reading Art with Technology Hack Chat
All feats of engineering build on a proper understanding of the basic engineering concepts. Learning these concepts from a book or class tends to be a rather uninspiring exercise, unfortunately. …read more Continue reading Learn Engineering Concepts With Some Cool Animations
