That is some slick photoshopping. Did you have the camera on a tripod, take multiple shots with different positions, and then selectively composite them?

Yeah it look as if there is about 2 or 3 pictures there put together, probably 3

What do you mean, photoshopping? Matt is an amazing individual .

Greg did the actual photoshopping, but that's about what he did, through my understanding.

Meanwhile, 177 has a robot to build and is instead taking pictures of people CADding.

It's actually about 4 photos put together. We took about 6, but not all were needed and some came out better than others. I did the compositing in full resolution, so sized down for CD it looks super good .

Here's a fun challenge for you: Find the area I forgot to erase... I'll give you a hint, it's not supposed to be a shadow.

I say infront of the first wrist because there are no other shadows in that direction.

Hmm, that wasn't what I was talking about, but I didn't pay any attention to shadows. That leftmost hand is actually taken completely from the original picture, so it's not it

[roboticsguy1988]

the top keyboard there is a little spot, is that it?

I would say the random hand part, just sticking out at about mid picture. Its not actually touching anything but is shaped like it was holding a mouse or something of that nature.

So, did you get your inspiration from here?

Actually, every hand is touching something. Including that one, which is a mouse, but it's hidden by the other arm, assuming that's the hand you're talking about.

HEY! Having your robot designed by a Hindu God is strickly against the rules! :^)
