Walt Disney Imagineering

Walt Disney Imagineering is the design and development arm of the Walt Disney Company. It is responsible for designing and building Disney theme parks, resorts, cruise ships, and other entertainment venues around the world.

During the summer of 2010 I was an intern at the Creative Technology Group within Walt Disney Imagineering. Creative Technology is the team that builds high-end visualization tools for the park designers and also prototypes new interactive technologies. While an intern there, I designed and programmed interactive prototypes utilizing technologies such as thermal cameras, multi-touch displays, and blob-tracking cameras. I also created a Gigapan-like application for viewing high-resolution images of Mount Everest.
