Motion Tracking

[samsc]

Has anyone implemented motion tracking as a layer input into Catalyst?

I'm looking at a project that would be a large (approx 85'x100') using infrared cameras to track movement and interact with the surface...

something along the lines of this www.respondr.com

you have a protocol that the tracking thing outputs?

then you write something to translate that information into pixel coordinate... that you can send to catalyst.

I've done this, it's quiet complex and not completely reliable. Contact me off list if you have more questions.

It's not reliable because motion tracking things is exceptionally tricky

And infra red tracking in theatrical type spaces even trickier
It's exceptionally difficult to track things in space
But harder than people ever imagine

But people still try
