Open CV feeding data in to PureData
Dec 10th, 2009, 2:29pm  
Hi,

I'm using OpenCV to track the number of faces appearing in front of my web cam. I want to be able to count the number of faces and send that data in to PureData. I will then use these values to affect a video and sound.

The PureData part after I have it receiving data from Processing I can handle... I just need to know how to

a). Count faces
b). Send that data in to PureData

I really am awful at using Processing so a simplified answer would be perfect but any help or a prod in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Bobby.

IIRC PD can take a TCP/IP connection so you could probably use the Network library to set up a server and send the data across from Processing.  From that point my memory gets hazy: I didn't take to PD and I haven't touched it since I finished my MA; but if you're stuck I could probably dig up some patches...  I think there's some pretty simple method of reading data off a network connection; can't remember how you'd filter it though.
