I'm trying to use my laptop camera to recognize some gestures with max6 and, according the movement, play a sample track. My problem is the background: with certain backgrounds the gestures tracking doesn't work very well, but with others everything is ok so I was wonder if would be possible to track the background before and then ask to ignore the tracked background so the camera would work only with the gestures...

thanks for your help

this will take a "snapshot" of the background, then compare that to the incoming matrix and get rid of it... after that I threw in some binary conversion for good measure... should get you going.
