question regarding isights and code
Apr 4th, 2006, 10:54pm  
Hello, I'm new, very new to processing, a true male ingenue. And, I have a few questions:

1) Is it possible to take a live feed of video and sound input from an isight into processing and connect the ranging values to affect a supplanted code that draws texture or lines - live?

2) Away from the syntax I imagine, but is there a way to receive proximity information from an isight and then do what is proposed in 1.

I'm working on an installation and if someone is willing to help me past this forum, my email is towersofavarice@hotmail.com.  Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

Hey man!

You should be able to do what you're talking about.  If I were you, I would start by reading everything on this page:

http://processing.org/reference/libraries/video/index.html

As for 'proximity information', I'm not sure what you mean, maybe you can clarify a little?

take care

Well, nix the proximity qualm and think something more like changing luminance values according to how close someone is to the camera. My issue is that I want to take a video capture and transcribe into another code that is more sketch like? I know one can do this, but I'm still having a hard time with the how part.

If you can help me further, please email me at towersofavarice@hotmail.com. Thank you.
