Heey guys,

i try to make a draw program with a webcam. I want that people are standing for the webcam and that they can draw with a colored point (for example a laser pointer). I got a code with color detection, and i got a code to draw lines on the screen, but now i have to combine it. The problem is, how to do that... i have really no idea, because i'am new with this program and i'am trying to learn te basics.
if you guys can help me many thnx

---- code for color detection ----

import JMyron.*;

JMyron m;//a camera object

void setup(){
 size(320,240);
 m = new JMyron();//make a new instance of the object
 m.start(width,height);//start a capture at 320x240
 m.trackColor(255,0,0,200);//R, G, B, and range of similarity
 m.minDensity(100); //minimum pixels in the glob required to result in a box
 println("Myron " + m.version());
 noFill();
}

void draw(){
 m.update();//update the camera view
 drawCamera();//draw the camera to the screen
 int[][] b = m.globBoxes();//get the center points
 //draw the boxes
 stroke(255,255,255);
 
 for(int i=0;i<b.length;i++){
   //line(mouseX, mouseY, pmouseX, pmouseY);
   rect( b[i][0] , b[i][1] , b[i][2] , b[i][3] );
 }

}

void drawCamera(){
 int[] img = m.image(); //get the normal image of the camera
 loadPixels();
 for(int i=0;i<width*height;i++){ //loop through all the pixels
   pixels[i] = img[i]; //draw each pixel to the screen
 }
 updatePixels();

}

void mousePressed(){
// m.settings();//click the window to get the settings
}

public void stop(){
 m.stop();//stop the object
 super.stop();
}

--- end code for color detection ---

--- code to draw on a grid ---

void setup() {
 size(200, 200);
 background(000);
}

void draw() {
 stroke(255);
 if(mousePressed) {
   line(mouseX, mouseY, pmouseX, pmouseY);
 }
}

Heey thnx for your reply,

i think that will solve the problem, but (ashamed) i must say that i have really no idea how to code it . iam just starting with this program.
It's a project for school, and i try to make something nice with it. The code that i already have, got i mostly from internet. Iam not able to write things like that myself. Maybe you can give me an example to place in the code. then i can figure out how it works.

Many thnx
