A lot of folks are loving the new possibilities of the Script TOP, especially when it comes to implementing OpenCV workflows in realtime in TouchDesigner. After our last video introducing the topic, we got a lot of questions on how to take the data from the feature detection and expose that in TouchDesigner for other workflows. In this video, Elburz grabs another OpenCV example, ports it into TouchDesigner, and talks about two different methods of exposing that data.
Working with GitHub and TouchDesigner can be a real adventure – and what I hear most often is why and how. A bit ago I did a little write-up about working with git and Touch, but realize that’s still a bit intimidating for folks.
Something I hear often is the difficulty in doing TouchDesigner blob tracking. “It’s too slow!” or “the tracking isn’t working!” or “I don’t know how to use it!”.
We’ve all been in installations where you need to send textures between apps or process. It may be because of limitations of a process, maybe because we’re using different apps to do different processes.
