Day 5: Adjusting projector and attaching screen

I am now using Diffused Illumination (DI) as opposed to Frustrated Total Internal Reflection (FTIR) as with DI you can track objects according to the NUI website. I had to also do some adjustments to the design so I could get a better screen display by relocating the CD RW Drive. It is still not perfect but ok for now. Decided to try and use a cupboard door from Ikea for the screen display. Using this has lost me 2cm of the display but I am still statisfied. The door I choose also has a thin pale grey layer which is being used as the projector surface. Later I might also try to use 2 mirrors for reflecting the image. I still need the IR illuminators. The projector works well so thanks to our Media Department. However it may work better for the larger Multitouch table we will build later. For this DI build I may need to replace the projector with one that has a higher resolution later.
