basic patching with Gem

Go to the PureData Help menu, there you have the basic examples we have seen today ::

Help -> Browser -> examples -> Gem -> 01.basic -> 01.redSquare.pd

Help -> Browser -> examples -> Gem -> 04.pix -> 05.film.pd

Help -> Browser -> examples -> Gem -> 04.video -> 00.SimpleVideo?.pd

(remember always you can do right mouse click on any object to obtain specific help)

TUESDAY

setting up your system

-Ubuntu Linux Easy Way :

       Download and install pd-extended ubuntu package here http://puredata.info/downloads 

       Download and install pd_opencv bindings here http://artefacte.org/pdpkg/

-MacOSX? Easy Way :

      Download and install pd-extended MACOSX package here http://puredata.info/downloads 

      Download the binary objects of pd_opencv for MACOSX. Unpackit and follow the instructions in the README file.

Device of supported USB cameras in Linux http://www.linux-usb.org/devices.html Look in the "Multimedia" devices section, the easy is to find a device with a driver which allready is in the main kernel source, but also the others will work.

Any DV1394 device (dv cameras and/or Analog/Digital Converters) works well on Linux

The IEEE1394 Digital Camera List http://damien.douxchamps.net/ieee1394/cameras/search/ Those are uncompresed video cameras, (actually not supported in thr linux PD version)

Computer Vision Test Videos

here http://muonics.net/cvMovies/ you have some test videos that relate to computer vision.

Made a tour for all the help examples, one by one, test them in diferent contexts and try to adjust the parameters as you need

WEDNESDAY

Simple practical example

Download Physical modeling examples here http://artefacte.org/BALTAN_Workshop/pmpd_example.tgz

Repository of Haar's Cascade XML files http://alereimondo.no-ip.org/OpenCV/34 here you have a package with more haarcascade clasifiers http://artefacte.org/BALTAN_Workshop/haarcascades.tgz

THURSDAY

Smoothing, limiting and scaling data

A simple example of a patch producing sound : http://ydegoyon.free.fr/baltan-mapping.tar.gz

FRIDAY

Introduction to OSC : http://opensoundcontrol.org/introduction-osc

The fruit detector works....

SATURDAY

People are working on their projects, comparing different solutions, pd is an easy tool to use for prototyping applications...

Fixing some problems with cameras encountered during the workshop : an experimental driver for DC1394 cameras has been added to PiDiP, only working in black&white for now

SUNDAY

Adding the examples seen in this workshop to the software packages and fixing a few bugs to make a new software release : pd_opencv-0.2-rc4
