Visualising Geometry

Here are some more potential applications for the Tilt Five AR Holographic Display. The first is getting an understanding of map projections and properties such as equal-area and conformal, and how the projections relate to the globe and oblateness:


The other is seeing how observational astronomy relates the views of the sky to the positions of the objects, be they stars planets, moons, comets, asteroids or artificial satellites. And after watching this, you are unlikely to ever forget which planet lies nearest to the half-way point between the orbit of Pluto and the Sun! 😂


Also, the kinds of GIS interfaces that we could make, .... see How We Use Energy, and imagine what people like Nadieh Bremer will be able to produce when they have a toolkit which allows them to design data visualization techniques which include user-interfaces in 3D space, ...


See On Law Enforcement and Scientific Knowledge.

See What is a user interface supposed to do?Genesis and The THE Multiprogramming System Mk II.

Fucking Google blogger just deleted my paragraph about user interface design because I accidentally scrolled too far up the page, which on Samsung Internet, triggers a reload, and there is no warning that you are going to undo your edits, it just trashes them. This is so stupid! How can we ever make any progress when people's standards are so fucking low?!
