DINOv3 is Meta's newest vision foundation model — it looks at an image and turns every patch into a 384-dimensional "semantic feature." No labels, no training, no captions. It just knows what things are. What it does TOP in → TOP out. Wire any image/video TOP into it.
DINOv3 for TouchDesigner — a drop-in TOX for semantic vision
Tutorial
A TouchDesigner TOX wrapping Roboflow's RF-DETR transformer model with a GPU-composited render path and a zero-Python-thread architecture. Ten model variants (4 detection + 6 segmentation, all COCO-pretrained) swap from a dropdown.

Stream LiDAR/TrueDepth video over NDI, capture Point Cloud Photos, and send body, hand, face, motion, audio, speech, AirPods, and Apple Watch data as OSC — straight into TouchDesigner over Wi-Fi. No cables. No cloud. No accounts.
TDLidar — your iPhone as a depth camera, 3D scanner, and sensor rig for TouchDesigner. v8.0.0
Tutorial
A drop-in TouchDesigner component for building wavefield visualisations from a library of seventeen wave equations across twelve source shapes and six instancing modes. It is audio reactive, LiDAR ready, and entirely driven by custom parameters on the TOX itself.
WaveField TOX - POPs without the hassle
Tutorial
Built a single TOX that wraps Spotify's Basic Pitch polyphonic-transcription model and exposes it as proper TD-native I/O: One CHOP input — any audio source outActive CHOP: 128 channels (ch1n0..ch1n127), one per MIDI pitch with current velocity. Wire to instancing, GLSL, DMX, midiout — anything.

In this tutorial, we will explore a powerful Houdini to TouchDesigner pipeline that allows us to create complex attributes in Houdini that later on we can modify and recombine in POPs in TouchDesigner using the Math Combine node. The result is a real-time animated Voronoi fracture.
