Reactivision Max Msp Patch
Max Msp Patches, free max. As a patch in OpenMusic or as an plugin in Max/MSP. This is a program made in max/msp that converts osc messages from reacTIVision. Whilst it is outwith the scope of this article to go into too much detail on my actual Max patcher, I would like to mention two objects that I used.
This Instructable is part 3 in an Intro to MaxMSP series I've just finished teaching at in San Francisco. Part 1 is an, part 2 is, and this Instructable is all about interfacing MaxMSP with hardware. I recommend at least skimming over my last two instructables before diving into this one, many of the example patches I use in this instructable are derived from patches built in the last two classes. In this Ible, I'll be going over how to get MaxMSP connected to Reactivision, Kinect, Arduino, MaKey MaKey, and the Novation Launchpad. The last step has some useful links and ideas for more ways to extend Max. Trapper Keeper South Park Game. Is a free, open source tool that communicates with MaxMSP and allows you to track objects with a camera by attaching to them. Crosshair Overlay Rust on this page. The software tracks x and y position and rotation and it's great for incorporating real world objects into your MaxMSP patch or making table top interfaces.
It was originally written for the ReacTable, a table top multitouch instrument: Here are some ReacTIVsion projects: Here's how to do it: - - - Print out some of the fiducial markers (look in your ReacTIVision vision engine download, under symbols>>default.pdf) - Run the ReacTIVision application and hold up the markers to your webcam - you should see the number of the fiducial track with it as you move it around the screen. You may need to adjust your lighting to help reacTIVision see the markers. By default ReacTIVision uses background subtraction to help it with tracking, in some cases this can be a hindrance. Use the 'E' key to toggle in and out of background subtraction mode and use the spacebar to recalculate the background until you find a setting that best tracks the fiducials.
Pressing the 'S' key will show to the original source image. Pressing 'T' will show the binary tresholded image, and pressing the 'N' key will turn the display off, which reduces the CPU usage.
