What I want to do is create an interactive element that controls the x position of a 3D model. I was hoping it might be possible to track a moving object across a video image. (and then provides data to vdmx) - So that punters may interact with the projection in a physical way. I dont want to use a computer/midi/technical control as the human interface.
I have managed to create a simple patch in Quartz using the v002 model loader (having trouble with kineme on mountain lion). And i have published inputs for the X Y and Z translation and rotations where required.
I thought this would be simple. I am sure I have seen a tutorial somewhere on mapping moving objects. But I cant find anything now. Has anyone got any suggestions?
