Back to Webcam/EyesWeb

After a few stressful weeks i came back and had a meeting with Mikael who convinced me that i should give webcam detection (using eyesweb) another chance.

Unlike previous attempts i was able to actually do something successfully. By using a tutorial and changing some elements around i was able to make a motion detection/background subtracter.

Here is the code

This code makes this

Turn into the following when you put a hand infront of it

Obviously this coding needs specific light conditions so i haven't been able to test it out 100% yet, I also tested it out using the semi-transparent screen in the IDC and it seemed successful, although i do still need to try it with a projection. Next step is that i need to find out how i can analyze the movement and convert it into midi notes.
