Unity Extension for Sensing People in Spaces

Hello,

I've put together code and an example of how to use Unity3d with the open source video tracker OpenTSPS (made with http://openFrameworks.cc ).

OpenTSPS can be downloaded here : http://www.opentsps.com

The Unity3d extension is on my github: https://github.com/obviousjim/OpenTSPS_Unity3d_Extension

The easiest way to get started is to just download the .unitypackage included in that repository.

I also put a walk through online:

It's still a prototype with a lot of features that could be added on the Unity side. Any comments, contributions, or critique is encouraged.

Thanks everyone,

 

Thanks for sharing. The video is precise &informative. Will try this out when I am at my computer.

Thanks again.

 

That's neat. This could be used for simple translational headtracking.
btw you can set unity to always update even if it's not focused. Edit->Project settings->Player->Resolution and presentation->Run in background

 

Seems to be a really interessting thing, maybe I'll look into it one of the next Days.

 

VERY cool!
Seems like this could be very useful for augmented reality apps or those playing around with Kinect integration.

 

wow nice work. it would be usefull for me.

 

Now this is very original project! Actually, it opens pretty many possibilities. Like real-time interactions, actors as game characters and even theater in Unity.
One of the most fascinating projects with Unity I've seen.

AWESOME.. so, instead of tracking people one could track markers on the table? i guess so
AWESOME!!!!

 

Wow, excellent work!

 

@okimoki. Absolutely! TSPS is designed for sensing people in environments, but really it works in any case where a video scene has high enough contrast for background-subtraction blob detection to work. So tracking markers on a table would definitely work.

But, there actually is a really neat project developed more specifically for using markers / touch tables with Unity. it's called uniTUIO and is based on the TUIO specification:

Am I right in saying the programs needed are not available on windows

 

Is this available for ios mobile? I need this for my AR project.
