Motion Tracking & MediaPipe
Dive into the world of motion tracking and real-time interaction via Google’s MediaPipe toolkit. Using just a webcam, you’ll uncover the intricacies of hand and face tracking, pose estimation, object recognition, and video segmentation.
Join Torin, as they explore the MediaPipe TouchDesigner Plugin, an open-source project he created in collaboration with Dom Scott. Designed with GPU acceleration on both Mac and PC, this toolkit eliminates the need for any custom installation.
Throughout this course, we’ll focus on utilizing motion tracking to control live visuals and audio, crafting dynamic and responsive installations and environments. Additionally, we’ll look into some of the inner workings of the MediaPipe TouchDesigner Plugin.
After the live lesson you will get access to the recording and the workshop files for one year.
