→Description
I'm thinking of tracking a person in physical space, and then have that person walk through a maze in virtual space. He would be able to move in real life unobstructed, of course, but if his virtual representation hits a wall it would be "stuck." I'm also considering putting in aspects of Pac man or Mario, or incorporating some kind of importance on movements such as dancing or jumping... depending on if my technical ability would allow it.
* Technical Description
If possible I'd like Processing to track the person through webcam, possibly using brightness thresholding with a plain background and singling out the blob of black that is the person. If that doesn't work I could attach LED's to the person and use brightness tracking instead. The maze should be able to be drawn in Processing, and finally I'd have to find the way to limit code the limiting of the virtual entity's movements.
