In this TouchDesigner tutorial, you learn how to create an interactive projection, where an eye follows people passing by. I use a webcam and the bodytrackCHOP to track persons, but you can also use a Kinect or other data like mouse cursor position, noise or any other object.
With free AI image generation tools like Bing Image Creator, you can create your own texture, I used PromeAI: www.promeai.pro/?vsource=i_8f...

Hello! I'm on a mac, and BodyTrack COMP is unfortunately not compatible with a MAC! What would you recommend for subbing in the bodytracking aspect with a webcam on a MAC, so I can get my program to work like you have it here? Thank for the wonderful tutorial!

I second this Except I’m not on a Mac But the “body track” still doesn’t work How can I get it to work with the Kinect without that chop?

You can use a windowCOMP and drag and drop the last null in it, then open as performance window 👍

Hello, it's excellent, but I have the jump when the person leaves the frame and returns, the eye makes a sudden movement, is there a way to soften the switch? thanks

There’s a problem that the eyes would run out of the screen. It just flow out. It seems like its not fully following my neck. Btw Thanks for your tutorial!

You need to limit the position data to the boundaries of your screen. Find out the boundaries by using the mouseinCHOP, move your mouse all the way to the left, note the x value, then all the way to the right, note the x value, all the way down, note the y value, and all the way up, note the y value. Now do the same with your camera or Kinect input, noting the position of your neck for example at the boundaries of the screen. With a mathCHOP just before the "positionNULL", use the Range function to convert your data. Lets say, the neck data all the way on the left is 0.2 and all the way to the right 1, and the screen position (which you checked with mouseinCHOP) is left 0 and right 1.5, then change the range from 0.2 and 1 to 0 and 1.5. That way, the position gets mapped properly on the output. If you move your camera or use a different output screen, you have to readjust these values. So for using it in an installation, make sure the camera won't move after setting it up correctly.

It's a good and important question. Check out my reply under ztime8038's comment, that should get you in the right direction. I think I'll also create a little video on that topic soon.

Hello, how can I prevent geometry COMP from displaying the final screen?😇

@reflekkt_net Ай бұрын

You can just turn off the render flag (the purple one in the bottom right corner of the operator) for the stuff that you don't want to show up in the render.

For some reason my eye doesnt move. It follows my mouse but it doesn't move from its spot.

Did you initialize and start the simulation? To do that, go to the bsolverCOMP that you created in the beginning (navigate one level up by pressing U or scroll up with mousewheel) and click on Initialize Sim and Collision Shapes, and then Start Sim.
