Let me explain the problem, I'm recording some values from accelerometers and from eyesweb.
Then I want to use it with scilab to make some treatment over it (FFT etc..) I know Pd could do FFT, but I need to do a lot of other stuff that Scilab does apparently better.

Yet I record the values that way :

5555;
6698;
658798;
etc...

my problem is the semicolon character, I did use it to terminate the message, when I've got it Scilab doesn't understand the variable the right way (and I can't find how to have Scilab to parse in real time fast enough)

So I'm looking for a way to record my file that way :

5555
6698
658798
etc...

I give the patch where I'm recording into the txt file "record_txt" (the right inlet just receive the name of the file that I parse from specific name and exercice during mesurement...)

Thank you very much,n

i tried the multiblob object, but somehow didnt get the results i was hoping.
i ended up using eyesweb for tracking and send the xy coordinates to pd via osc.

has anybody worked with openCV...i think i read somewhere its already implemented? is that true?...looks great for tracking stuff.

Celebrate tax day with a patch-o-rama!

This week we are fortunate enough to have Wesley Smith from Cycling 74 to join us in patching patchers and, well, lets be honest, helping us a bit with our Max/Jitter/OpenGL/Shader issues *cough*

Right Wes?.

Come join the fun and dont bother the poor guy too much.

This is an informal gathering of patching and patchers (Max/MSP/Jitter, Pure Data, and even jMax, EyesWeb, vvvv, etc.). Beginners and Experienced welcome. Open to everyone, students, the public, etc. Work on school projects, personal projects, ask for help, help others, or just patch quietly to yourself, in a room full of other people patching patches and helping other people patch.

RSVP and I'll put you on the guest list at the door. Otherwise call 718 260 3693 when you get there.

I don't usually use GEM, but, if you can read the RGB values of an area of the GEM window, then you could look for a change in the values. This is assuming that the person is the only thing moving. If the values change then the trigger happens.

EyesWeb is a program that can be linked to PD through (I believe) through open sound comand (OSC). vvvv is another free, to non-commercial entities, program that can be linked to PD through OSC. Both could be set up to look for RGB changes if GEM cannot.

hey everyone!

we plan to do a project using EyesWeb for cam tracking and PD for doing the programming, graphical and auditive output. the idea is to track the silhoutte of the user with eyes web and to include that silhoutte in the projection for steering the plot. similar to this installation from ms. utterback

http://www.camilleutterback.com/textrain.html

Are there any tutorials or projects where EyesWeb and PD were used together (via OSC) ? could not find such much examples so far... or maybe is it better to use Eyesweb with VVVV ?

too much questions...we are lucky about any link or hint!

thx!
