Open Vision Control

Post by timpattinson »

Me and some other people have been working on a program known as Open Vision Control for a while now.
The software receives input from a webcam and recognizes faces ,dark and bright objects,and moving objects to list a few.
It has the ability to run Python scripts to interact with the world.
I've made a script with NXT-Python that can control an arrow on the NXT, making it point towards the currently tracked object, and more is coming soon...

Tim,

That is very cool! There doesn't seem to be a lot in terms of documentation, yet. Is this something you're going to add at a later stage?
