faceAPI 3D headtracking requires only a webcam

http://www.faceapi.com. This 3D head-tracking software from Seeing Machines can track head position in X,Y and Z - unlike the Sony headtracker. This means you miss out on the cool "zoom" effects when you get close to the screen, because the software has no understand of how far away you are from the screen. The faceAPI tracks head position in Z too, allowing much cooler effects - and more robust tracking. http://www.faceapi.com


To all the people asking how to get this effect, please note faceAPI is an API, or Application Programming Interface. It is a tool for programmers that can be used to generate effects like in this video, as well as many other applications. We do not have these visualizations available for download! They are offered as an example only, for what head tracking can be used for.

What, the one where you had to tear apart a wiimote and stick bits of crap on your face? Then take a camera and remove the IR filter on the lens, attach a sensor bar to the TV and then calibrate it? Yeah, so much better.
