Hi there. I have a "chaotic attractor" patch, based on the one in 

 tutorial but using a different formula in the Gen, the "

" attractor. (Thank you so much Umut Eldem, I learned a lot!) Everything else is, essentially, the same. The jitter preference is switched to GL2 instead GL Core, which I'd prefer to avoid in future versions. For now, though, using GL2, what I can't quite figure out is how to make the particle motion into solid lines. 

I turned down the alpha on @erase_color in the jit.world to a point I like, where it makes a trail but goes completely away in a reasonable time frame. However, the look is still "dotty" and I'd like a clean line so the overall shape of the attractor becomes clear but fades away before it turns into a solid block.

I tried a couple other things that I saw in older posts, like the smear effect and reducing the FPS. Neither of them really worked as I wanted. (Actually, reducing the FPS doesn't seem to have an impact on the practical speed, I reduced the attribute but it still seems to output at the same rate, perhaps I'm doing something wrong there? I left it like that in the uploaded patch.) The jit.gl.mesh @draw_mode does something totally different, so it's not that, I don't think.

My questions are: how might I create solid lines out of particle motion in a matrix>gen>matrix feedback loop using GL2? And then, how might that be done using GL Core instead of GL2? I might be, probably am, making a dumb mistake, but I can't figure out what that is. Any thoughts are highly appreciated. Thank you!

I have a 1 dimensional matrix with 3 planes (for x, y, z values) with a variable size of entries.

My Aim is to connect each entry with each other in the matrix and draw accordingly Line in OpenGL in a Jitter Window.

But additionally the lines should have different visibilities depending on how big the distance between the starting Point and End Point of each line is. The bigger the distance is the less visible the line should be. If the length of a line is too high the line should not be drawn. 

And all should work with a very good performance and high fps. 

For this requirements i was thinking about to write an

i have a strong computer configuration and external graphics card, and STILL whenever I work with a 1920 ×1080 videos the UI objects get laggy and jittery, it takes 3 min to open dialog boxes, etc. in short it gets annoying to work in max.

 If it is, how do you do anything done in jitter?

i do use textures and not matrices, and max does use the external card, i can see the GPU use rising a little when doing video

I'm trying to create a patch where I can triggers samples when motion is detected on a line. Similar to the concept in the video below. The end goal is to trigger splashing sounds when people walk by the webcam so it sounds like you're walking on water.

I've started out with the patch I have here (will increase the grid size later) but hit a snag when getting the data out of the matrix. Maybe this isn't the best way of doing it so I'm happy for suggestions.

I want to create Jitter projects with face detection of a webcam stream in "realtime" at high resolution.

In one patch for example i am using OpenCV - cv.jit objects to cut out the face from the webcam stream: 

CutOutFace.maxpat

but it seems to be too slow i only get a framefrate about 3 fps and the patch responds delayed. 

I also have detected the jweb-mediapipe for example: 

https://github.com/robtherich/jweb-mediapipe

 This option has a great performance, high resolution, and very good face-landmarkers... 

But as far as i understand i am not able to feed the jweb object with a jitter matrix from my webcam or get a jitter matrix out of the jweb object. 

I would need the original webcam stream and the detected facemesh, face-landmarker data to work with in my jitter patches.
