The thing is, all you need is a decent projector /webcam to do this. That and some programming experience. Tracking / projector software is already out there and opensource. You could probably design the software yourself with minimum experience as a side project in 5 months.
@NeoKariz the glass tables are made to look fancy, that and if you want something more durable than slate/want to easily turn your pool table into a dining table (go to nottagedesign . com for more stuff)
Just fucking godlike shittt. I can't afford one of those. I'm kind a practically homeless. but if someone interest in give on of those I'll appreciated. my email... usmarlon@hotmail.com . God will compensate you. Give you twice .. thrice in return.. Any furthers gifts I'd even more appreciated; the toilet.

I don't think it would really distract you from the game. When you're making or considering your shot, the balls won't be moving, so its pretty calm. It's only when you hit the balls that the real distracting stuff seems to happen, but by then you're just watching anyways. Pretty damn cool table. Way too expensive for a toy though.. might as well just buy a ZR1 Corvette.
The system itself will set you back $80,000, no pool table included where it's currently set up, it's projecting on a $125,000 pool table all other $205.000. Bottom line: you can't afford it.
Do you realize how disadvantageous it would be to have a screen surface as the pool table instead? The material would have to be durable (accidental cue strikes against table + constant friction of balls moving about) and still maintain the ability to display quality images. Not to mention it would have to conform to regulation standards (whatever they may be). Whereas with a projector setup, you have all the advantages of a regular table only with the added bonus of the projector.
While I won't contest your point, I'm afraid that in this instance your argument is mute. It isn't the pool table surface that is the screen but instead is a projector up above it. It has a sensor of some kind that "sees" the balls and cue stick and then the projector will project the effects down to where the objects are.
Check out the video at 0:52...he is waving the cue stick in the air but the table shows the effect.
It's clever but it's not a screen that they are on.
dont think that would really matter, unless u like to pretend ur a medival knight who thinks the cue stick is a sword and the table is the enemy and then drive ur stick into it and make a hole ( yes i kno that sounds like something i did wit ur mom last night :) ) , but other than that , theres balls rollin all over the place on that shit..-,-
soo i dont htink accidentally hittin the pool table would matter much
btw no it would do NOTHING cuz i just figured out ,, theres no lcd on that shit,, theres a projector from above, with motion censure for the balls-,- soo the pool table is normal...just light bein shone on it....
Oh yeah, I totally have an extra 200 grand to spend in this recession, why not outfit my pool table with lavish projection equipment to make frat boy dipshits drool over images of scantily clad women on the surface. What's next, an LED studded toilet with musical accompaniment?
you could invent new games with this pool table. Such as an interactive pool game that puts more variables and challenges on the table, no pun intended lol.
Ugh, this would be horrible to play pool on. The novelty lasted about as long as the video. No thanks, I'd rather have a green or blue table because I'm interested in seeing the balls and winning. This is as useful as bowling under disco lights or black lights.
im betting this software can easily do a cheater mode. immagine wearing like, special sunglasses that could highlight projected paths on the table that no one else could see. get some nerds hustling bikers in a bar. would be lol
Wouldn't matter much more than it would on a regular pool table. The image is actually projected down from the ceiling. The shadows of the balls/cues give it away.
Yeah, its really cool and all, but it sure as hell isn't worth 200k. I mean damn, some of the students where I go to school at do interactive projection games for their final projects, and they sure as hell didn't spend hardly any (if any at all) on them. Buy a table, buy a good projector, something to track objects in front of the canvas, learn some code, and you've got one you made yourself for considerably less.
It is 45K for the system, not 200. the pool table itself is 120K. it is made for people that already have the "lambo" as ovariesniper mentioned. the low res version is very inexpensive, this one uses a 7000 lumen HD projector.
i dont know of many students that are doing projects with Christie DHD 700's, unless they happen to like spending $22,000 on a projector. sounds like you go to a very wealthy school.
@patcon96 I wasn't saying that they were using ridiculously expensive projectors, they are using the ones the school already has set up in classrooms. I would guess those are around 2-4k. What I was getting at is that you can get a projector for cheap, like 500 for some models, and set it up to do something like this if you really wanted a cheapo version for yourself. If all you're showing are SFX, the resolution doesn't need to be all that great. And what pool table costs 120k, and why?!
any programmer can do this with very much less costs, but still nice idea, but its from a big projector from the ceiling, I would not want this, either via an display beneath the table or nothing.
Is there a way of getting the program if you have a table and a projector??
