I'm afraid, it's impossible for now. A "traditional" solution for using PS3Eye with MacOS was Macam, which doesn't work with new versions of the system. It's a pity, because I liked these cameras very much.

Yeah , it seems that way ... was just getting into them and thinking to move the Mojave machine back to sierra, as im able to get the eye camera working on 7.3.6 on sierra with macam totally fine.

on another note , are you aware of a different camera that can be used in max 8 with mojave with similar modification capabilities, i was going to use if for ir tracking , other than buying a blackmagic pocket cam and ir modding it, personally i cant see another cheap alternative like the eye in existence...

seems most usb cams were really relying on macam ...

I "hacked" a few webcams (removing build-in IR filters, added filters cutting visible light), mostly Logitech. I do not remember exactly the models, I just went to the store and looked for cameras with screwed casings.

yeah nice , yeah i have a canon 550d with that i have the clear glass mod, i used for ir photography, might try and get that streaming in to max , just been looking at this

either that or im going back to high sierra ....

Opening this thread up again, just got a couple of these PS3 Eye cameras with the goal of working with them on Max - but it doesn't seem to work.

However, I did manage to get it working in openFrameworks using this addon https://github.com/bakercp/ofxPS3EyeGrabber which leads me to believe that it has to be possible to use it in Max somehow...

I can see a convoluted method in which I send the frames over Syphon to Max or do the computer vision stuff in oF and send over OSC to Max but would ideally would love to use the camera(s) from within Max, anyone has had any luck yet?
