My good friend George Adamopoulos extended this invitation to me, so here is an overview of my desktop at work:
So what can we see here?
On the right is my main workstation, with two monitors of course. The monitors are raised higher, using a dead UPS and a bunch of books, so as to reduce neck strain. On the left monitor you can see the video stream from where the capture came from. A recursive photo really, since it contains itself.
I used a Point Grey Grashoper 1394 camera and set our application to grab a frame every 5 seconds, then I picked one that was clear enough.
On the left is my laptop and in the middle is my private test PC, the one I first debug my drivers on. It's the one underneath the table, opened up of course so I can add/remove 1394 adapters easily. Please pay special attention to the light blue rubber keyboard that I bought for 4 euros (!!!) from Taipei. You can just roll it up and put it in your bag to carry along! Very convenient in that aspect, but really hard to type ultra fast with it as you get lots and lots of missed keystrokes.
At the far end you can also see my great collection of cups :-) Yeap, I am a proud cup collector!
Have fun!
