Im trying to check for motion in specific areas. The code below doesnt work but Im unsure why, any help would be greatly appreciated. Basically Im comparing the live video to a still image. If there is a difference above or below the X/Y used to be compared (via dist function) to a hotspot. The main problem seems to be getting the pixelY variable... (im using code adapted from a sketch on openprocessing)
Any ideas would be appreciated!
import processing.video.*;
Capture video;
int th = 140;
PImage room; //this is the image that is used check the differences with the live image
int node1x = 40;
int node1y = 40;
int radius = 40;
void setup(){
size(640,480);
video = new Capture(this, width, height, 25); //here begins a new sessions of capturing of the images from the webcam
room = loadImage("room.png");
video.start();
//noStroke();
smooth();
}
void draw(){
background(255);
if (video.available()) {
video.read();
}
int myX = 0;
int myY = 0;
loadPixels();
int pixelX = -1, pixelY = -1;
video.loadPixels(); //fill an array of pixels from the current captured image
room.loadPixels(); //fill an array of pixels from the current captured image
for(int i=0; i<video.height*video.width; i++){ //read every element of the pixels array
pixelX = i % width; //get the real pixel X position
if( pixelX != width ) {
pixelY = ( i / width ) +1;
} else {
pixelY = ( i / height );
} //get the real pixel Y position
