Working late into the night with our new lanyard production for the new Midges

Camera extrinsics in the wild

We've just arrived in Nice. Finalising the camera preparations, early start tomorrow...

Among the not-so-good news, the new Mingle MIDGE wearable sensors might not be ready on time. It is going to be a close call! We are working on a plan B using our old and faithful Chalcedony sensors which measure acceleration and proximity. Just in case...

ConfLab is approaching and we are finalizing our plan! Here's some of us discussing the camera placement. We also got ethical approval for the experiment!

The Mingle MIDGE wearable sensors are almost here! Take a look at the first (green) and second (black) prototypes. These sensors are an evolution of the Rythm badge (rhythm.mit.edu/rhythm-badges) with internal storage for enhanced sampling rates in all modalities.
