A very vague question maybe, but imagine this:

There are 4 cubes in a space. These 4 cubes are being moved by people. The 'software' needs to be able to be aware of the position of the cubes, and how far off they are from each other.

I though about using IR tracking and shapes or something like that. But I'm not sure how and whether that works.

You can use the civ.jit objects for blob and color tracking. Then get the position of each blob and feed that into the vexpr object to calculate the distance. Cubes on a piece of glass with the camera below shouls stop peoples hands getting in the way of the camera.

really? is it that "simpel" i will dive into it.

I don't quite get what you mean with the last part about the glass?

Well if you have a camera above the table peoples hands and heads can block the image recognition.

By using a glass table and putting the camera underneath you ll get a better result.

Ah, that way. well, the scale is a lot bigger. We are tlaking here about a room, not a table.

This is really the first time I event ry to track blobs, and I found this:

 hoping it would make it easier, but I can't get that to work either..

I also don't quite understand what teh vexpr should do. just x blob 1 - x blob 2 or something like that?
