Hi Diablodale

thank you so much for your work !

Absolutely. I'm happy to make some technology that others can use to make their own patches, solutions, creations, installations, art, music,...whatever they want.

Also, this v0.8.5 is more multithreaded so it should scale better across CPUs with multiple cores. This then makes Max's main thread more available to do UI work, audio, etc.

Hi Dale, is there somewhere documentation on the steps to output a 3D model of the face? Thank you!

One approach to draw the face is in the demo patch I provide in the download for dp.kinect.
Click into the "more features" subpatch. There you can see a rendered pointcloud, your face, and right hand. The further subpatch "draw_face" has the objects doing the work.
Friendly reminder -> you need to download the optional face tracking data from https://hidale.com/shop/dp-kinect/ and install it https://github.com/diablodale/dp.kinect/wiki#setup-guide
