Some Processing camera examples
Jul 30th, 2005, 4:31pm  

For those of you who are new to Processing and haven't seen these before, I thought I would point these examples by Charles Forman.

Snow

Fire

There are lots more examples on the Setpixel site.

Hi Chris,
Any idea if the code for these is available anywhere? The designer mentions on the blog that he's going to share it, but I didn't spot it anywhere...
Thanks!

Sample Code Available

Hey guys,

Nice examples at setPixel. I think it is more useful to understand the concepts behind the code than to get handed a bunch of code that answers all the problems at once. That being said:

I have some (slightly messy) sample code that captures video, compares it to a previous frame, and responds to the difference posted on codetree.org. It's called bees and flowers and is currently the most recent post. You won't be able to demo the applet online, since I haven't been able to figure out how to export camera-enabled applets yet (maybe a question for these boards).

The program shown on codetree was displayed live at Kofenya in Oxford,OH last friday. It's a small, independent coffee shop with just enough room on the bar for me to squeeze my laptop, iSight, and borrowed lcd projector onto. I'll be putting documentation up on my website soon.

cheers,

hello Bioscribble.

i agree with you, it's not really the code that matters, but the concept.

i'm not interested about how to caputre video, or analyse the difference between two frames (movement detection), but i think to obtain a good result like setpixel's, he has to optimize every part to display so many sprites.

i'm very interested about the algorithm used to move the snowflakes. he said he make a "wind map" to move the snowflakes accordingly. the wind map is an array of vectors. How does he set the vector map by analyzing the movements, how did he analyze the movements itselfs, etc etc...

i've tried to contact him several times, but in vain. Smiley

I am starting to write code for a class project of mine and was looking for some help.  My project uses a camera to focus on your hands to move objects on screen.  Its a medical simulation.  Does anyone have any ideas/tutorials/help that they can give that would be very helpful.
