More info and code snippets here - http://jamesalliban.wordpress.com/2008/12/05/virtual-ribbons/

This artwork allows the user to experience an augmented reality in which the flow of ribbons and particles can be controlled. It works by capturing a colour from an object (in this case, a green glove and the light from my mobile phone) and then using this object to drag the ribbons around the screen.

  • i don't know if it's doing this already, but you could make that as soon as the thing got three positions for the path it would create a bezier curve, so tha path would be curvy and not angular.

  • hi stereo123. Yeah I'm already doing that. It looks a bit angular because the ribbon particles are pseudo-randomly positioned.

  • Thanks!

  • awesome

  • this is good

  • I love seeing AR like this without a big black square for a marker. Granted, the green glove stands out, but it looks more natural. I've seen an AR effect around youtube that used the shape of a guy's open hand and seemed to "mark" his fingertips.

  • yeah, that's cool.

  • nice image processing

  • the green glove acts as a "marker"

  • How are u doing this without using a marker. I am a new fan of AR and wants to some basic before doing advanced. Can you share some samples with me. Thank you.

  • par o cazz

  • Very convincing motion detection you're doing here. Thanks for sharing the code snippets - I'm going to play around with those for sure :) (and thanks for your kind comment)
