Head Tracking

Postby tgm0 » Fri Jul 30, 2010 12:01 am

Hello everybody!

I don't know if any of you are aware that a guy named Johnny Lee developed a head tracking mechanism, that using a wii remote and some infrared lights, succeeded in making on-screen 3D graphics to come alive.
You can find a video that will show you what i mean at the following address



or just by searching on youtube for "head tracking".
Take a look, it is impressive!!!

The application evolved and they ended up being able to replicate the same results using a regular webcam together with face recognition software...



many more examples could be found searching for "webcam head tracking"

Now, my suggestion is....
wouldn't be out there some programmer able to mod some of the most famous games like C@DWF2, BFBC2, and the list could go on..., to work with this awesome technique?
It looks like the code is really simple, and developing a modified driver for controlling the game movements shouldn't be that challenging, but the end results could be amazing.

If so we will be able to have an outstanding jump forward into the realism of the game we all love and play.

regards and thanks for reading.
ciao! :->
