A nice piece on advances in television.

It seems that British Airways is catching up with Virgin by launching a “content based” website with a guide to London. Crispin Porter + Bogusky should be proud that BA’s ad agency is following suit with a similar approach to Virgin’s Jetrosexual campaign. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. The site is a flash based with “London Events” module, “book your flight module”, “Insider’s Guide to London…”, email a friend “Brit-Speak Dictionary” and “Experience the Difference” – a guide to the BA experience in the air. All this with the BA version of witty copy.

Why you might ask?
A. The set build out of images of objects is brilliant
B. The character that follows you from room to room
Also a great use of the 3d engine is our own AiwaWorld project:

Multi-Touch Sensing through LED Matrix Displays
Two scalable techniques for enabling ordinary LED matrices to simultaneously act as multi-touch input devices. In 1977, Forrest M. Mims reminds us in one of his “Engineer’s Notebooks” that LEDs can also be used as photodiodes…
