I'd like to make a small version similar to "Rain room" as my graduation project but I don't know where to start, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jSup0tm86no
I've been searching the web for days, and I'm beginning to understand how it's build and what hardware I need, this is the the short list: 3D tracking cameras,injection moulded tiles, solenoid valves, pressure regulators, custom software, steel beams, water management system, grated floor
The main issue I have now is what kind of cameras that I should get and how many, I googled "3D tracking cameras" but couldn't understand the difference between them and which ones that are suitable for my project, I absolutely don't know any thing about cameras or how to use them with Java.
