Use your webcam to identify gestures and trigger any script
This website identifies 6 basic gestures and sends a MIDI message. You can use tools like LoopMidi in Windows or IAC driver in OSX to create a MIDI port and connect the website to Ableton or any other DAW.
If you are familiar with Python you can also catch the MIDI with midi_example.py, it's a simple script that receives the messages and prints them. You can replace the print statement for anything else you want.
For more details about the website development check this repository.
- Install required python modules
python -m pip install requirements.txt
- Run the script
python midi_example.py
- Go to the website and modify the selection bar in order to choose the midi output (Instead of
None).
