Hi every Maxer... I was just wondering if somebody knew some tricks or a good patch to start doing what is mention in the title... What I try to achieve is : when I raise my arm I want that a movie go forward, when I put my hand down the movie go backward etc. I am not too familiar with the cv.jit objects but it's kind of obvious that I will need them if I don't want to use the kinect... Any pointers and help will be awesome...

Thanx a bunch,

Benoit

probably the best bet is using the optical flow objects of cv.jit

i leave you a patch as starting point.. it works more or less, but need to be improved, i do it very quick...
try it with or without frame differecing, sliding etc etc...

in cv.jit theres another object for optic flow analysis, don't remember the name, check the reference..
