Hey! So this second assignment I am calling Gun in Your Face!

So to sum up the assignment first:

Sensing.

Coordinate info from cvjit.faces matrix used to calculate the position of face laterally across Read more →

Overview

This project aims to recreate Christian Moeller’s Electronic Mirror(1993) on Max 7.

Process

I started with sub-patchers “p getaface” and “p calculatebox” and then added them to the main patcher.

Main Patcher

Challenges

I could afford to improve on the fluidity of the video and for quite awhile, the opacity darkened when I got further instead of closer due to the Read more →

Sensing: Using the camera in my laptop and face location to determine the video frame

Effecting: Tracking

Computing: MAX

Assignment: Using Max as the platform, create video that acts as a movement tracker that follows you as you move sideways.

This second assignment is almost like an extension from the first where we still have to make use of what we learnt about face detecting but instead of changing opacity, it is to Read more →

Sensing: Using the camera in my laptop and face size to detect distance of person.

Effecting: Reflecting, opacity and transitioning

Computing: MAX

Assignment: Using Max as the platform, create a virtual magic mirror that depends on the distance between a person and the mirror which result in video brightening up (far) or fading out (near).

Programming language is a generally new thing to me and Max is Read more →

Objective – Play the video at a specific point depending on the location of the face.

Sensing – Use cv.jit.face to track the subject’s face. Utilize the output data of the face tracking to determine the location of the face.

Assignment 02_Eye Tracking was a fun and interesting assignment to work on. Some of the problem that I have face was tying Read more →

Task: Create an eye or movement tracker that follows you as you move left and right

Detection of your face, calculation of the x-coordinate of the midpoint (sensing) Uploading of eye movement clip, scale the frames of the video to the position of your detected face (effecting)

The first portion of this assignment involves detection of the face, inverting and extracting Read more →

Assignment documentation. The center alignment with the computer camera is a little off but otherwise everything looks fine.

Objective – Dim the image when the subject got closer.

Sensing – Detection of the face, from the coordinated, we could calculated the size of the face, thus able to tell if the subject was close to the camera.

Assignment 01_Mirror was a interesting assignment to work on, having no prior experience with Max. The issues that I have encounter was mixing Read more →
