[OT] Eyesweb to Max

David Beaudry's icon

Hi all,
A bit OT here. I've actually had some great success using Eyesweb to track a dancer on stage...lots of really useful data. My experience with eyesweb, however, is about 24 hours old. Still, I'm generating all the data I need and am quite happy. Eventually this data needs to get into max. No problem using the OSC or UDP plugins in Eyesweb if I just send raw numbers...everything shows up in Max just fine. However I'm missing a big step where I need to somehow convert the blob or centroid or bounding data in eyesweb into something that the eyesweb OSC or UDP object will accept. i.e. I can't get the data out of eyesweb! Where's my unpack (and prepend and pack and..) in eyesweb! :) I know I'm missing something super silly. Has anyone here had success getting such data tout of eyesweb?

Thanks,
David

P.S. I've also posted this to the eyesweb forum, but it's been over 12 hours and am still waiting for "approval". Boo overly moderated forums!

Hi, I'm having exactly the same problem.
I have posted on all Eyesweb forums I could find, but no answer (one of them is even out of order :( )

David, did you eventually find a solution for that ?

P.S. If anyone has a working Eyesweb patch to send centroids via OSC, I'm sure it would be help a lot of people to share it here.

Append today : I have received an answer that could help many others.
Two patchs to send and receive centroids via OSC are here :

Tested on EW 5.1, works fine.
