Can all TED talks be like this? Sweet, concise, and actually innovative.

I used to attend a high school in a very low- income area and of course; we couldn't afford the interactive smart boards which basically every other school had at least a few of. My math teacher who was so passionate about education and technology adopted this system of a budget interactive whiteboard to make her teaching more visual and enhancing and seeing this video, I feel so grateful for some reason. Great work Johnny! Your work really did enable less advantaged people to maintain the technological advancements that everyone else was achieving.

8 years later, no real head tracking compatibility games...

BenjerminGaye different kind of head tracking. That uses absolute position relative to the screen. The headsets use relative tracking based on compass position.

Why the need for the headset display then? I mean this demo uses head tracking software and an IR camera with a pair of LEDs attached to some safety glasses to create a 3 dimensional effect on a 2d TV screen, why then, are developers opting to mount stereoscopic displays in chunky visors? Surely this eliminates the need for VR... more to the point we've had a generational leap in home consoles with another one due soon since this video and no-one's developed a game around this very simple set up.

Johnny Lee deserved the standing ovation... It's not just about his current experiments, but on how many people it can affect, and how accessible he made it for the general public. Great stuff! Happy to see some game development companies are already considering doing something with the idea!

I made my own Wiimote Whiteboard and used it in one of my classes: It was amazing! Johnny Lee is a genius, and he certainly deserves an award for sharing his knowledge with everyone.

don't be nervous, man. you did great

that 3d looks amazing! I don't have fusion between my eyes and this looked fantastic for me! I think this is the first time I have seen 3d

I saw this when it came out, this is what opened me up to the TED talk world, wish they would do more like this!

One of the most incredible things I've ever seen. Such a simple things, but with massive applications. Genius.

This is damn amazing, but I'd really like if he took a deep breath sometimes...

A well-deserved standing ovation indeed.

This guy is a legend!

Why is this guy not developing VR for Switch

man we need head tracking everywhere! XD haha I can imagine them remaking the game Punch-Out! from NES with head tracking and gloves XD.

Every time I come back to this video, I always smile at 3:55 because you can tell the camera guy is having fun.

Hey Johnny, thank you so much for this. My very small English school has been struggling to compete with the big rich companies, but I now have an interactive white board which may give me a chance to compete on a different level, all thanks to you. You are changing the world my friend. I can't express how grateful I am for your present to us.

So where is his website?

Nice work Johnny Lee! Brilliant work!

The cameraman was having fun! xD

We need more people like this guy.

I agree. That is an amazing tool Johnny Lee created!

That's absolutely fantastic! Thank you so much for sharing!

Awesome!!!... What we'll see in the future whit guy like this... I think I'm going to cry.

I'm sure Johnny must have felt good to see the entire audience instantaneously stand to give him a ovation. Bravo! and post more videos will your Johnny?

A teacher at my college class gave this to the entire class... You rock!!!

Man so much cool stuff happened in the 00s

a standing ovation! OF COURSE! we need more people like him! MOAR!!! MOAR!!!!

This guy is a genius and really doing what we wish all game developers should do. great thinking man

TED Technology Entertainment and Design... this man fulfilled all three!

nice work.... and great to see he gave it to everyone for free,

Absolutely incredible.

Damn, some people come up with the coolest stuff from things we all already have. Great job!

I'm in 2020 and this is still impressive!

i wanna hug this guy he is amazing and so bloody unasuming

You just owned some of the most brilliant inventers in the world. This is pure inovation for everyone! Thanks for thinking, Mr Lee! ;)

This guy is absolutely brilliant!

Wow, I have seen that before but I have to say Johnny Lee is incredibly smart and really well spoken, which is nice to see in the research community.

wow, i remember watching his vids a while ago. glad his talents have been recognised now

Some good old TED talk times...

this guy is great! we need many many more like him

That camera guy was really into that 3-D room. He wouldn't step away from it!!

the camera guy was having fun with that demo

This was so cool! He is awesome for this! That is the way to do it help out millions of people with simple technology! Great video!

pure genius. that's great man.

THAT WAS SICK he is talented

For me, the best tedx ever!

That's awesome. I can dab some IR ink around my eyes, set up a PC with my old WiiMote that's been sitting on the shelf, and have a makeshift 3D display. Amazing.

Nicely done, sir.

I love this guy, very creative!

I love how when he starts to use it, he has the audience captivated and amazed. I Love it. Its like the audience has no idea what he is talking about until he actually starts to show them a demonstration of what it does, then their like OOH!!! AHH!!!! He IS The GURU of this stuff!!!!

I could just watch this forever!!!!

They should really do more clinic like this one ! Thank you for sharing

well done! this world needs more people like you!

And it works like a charm in my classroom! Money saved and knowledge gained.

Yes! He's research is getting the attention it deserves! I'm glad youtube helped him get there. As soon as EA announces specifically what game this is being applied to, I'm getting it.

Pure genius, right there.

Explaining something that you're so passionate about dumps a huge amount of adrenaline into your system, especialy with this audiance.

Johnny Lee is the man! He's work (eventhough that kind of a digital tracking is already "an old thing" for the professionals, but he's making it stuffs for the masses!) is going to have a huge impact in the upcoming years. He's just that kind of a "nice-guy-from-your-neighbour", who just happens to kick MAJOR ASS with his work! Inspiring stuff.

This guy is a king of DIYs, damn that's impressive.

Thank you Johnny Lee, a very great idea and a very great piece of software!!!

3 cheers and a standing ovation in a 5 minute presentation

Hands' clapping from me too, very impressive.....from Thailand...so I can tutory or teach basic Science to kids, thank you so much John you are a super genious .
