Recitation 10: Media Controller, by Daniel Chin

Instructor: Marcele 
 
This is a write up for Interaction Lab SP18 Recitation on Nick’s Birthday on Apr 28, 2019. 
 

Heat-sensitive webcam 


 
The webcam image turns red when heated up, and turns blue when cooled down. 
 

Source code 


Arduino code and Processing code on my Github. 
 
You can see I wrote a signal-smoothing feature in loop(). The mode of 20 sensor values is sent to Processing every 0.1 second. 
 

Reflection 


The interaction this time is very basic. I am most impressed by my laptop tinting every frame from the webcam in real time. 
 
Inspired by Computer Vision for Artist and Designers, I think using pre-built frameworks to analyze video would be something interesting to do.
