In this project, I experimented with openFrameworks in order to code a Face Tracking application. I used special add-ons from the openFrameworks library and I designed the interface and the two faces appearance. In the Face Tracking application, the user looks into the camera that is built into the computer and the application reflects the shape of the person's face into dots. Another, smaller version of the face's reflection is designed to be solid. It also reacts to face movement and creates the effect of multiple user's participation.
Please see the demo of the project below:
Why?
openFrameworks is a community that was developed by people who love code. With openFrameworks the understanding of coding has a different meaning. Code can be used for fun. People create, share, and contribute. Any fun and unusual ideas can become real with a non-traditional understanding of code.
