"VR"

For what it's worth, I'm forging ahead on the camera business...

I thought I'd decided to program tracking from scratch, since nothing off the shelf looked sensible. But first I got a lead from from here ( https://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-...-headset-/ ) that looks promising, and potentially helpful if necessary.

https://sourceforge.net/p/facetracknoir/.../0cf1726d/

https://facetracknoir.sourceforge.net/home/default.htm looks like a good way to begin, and possibly all that will be needed to get things set up. It also gave me an idea (I've read about this before) to look at face tracking for SOM, so that monitor play can appear less flat, by adjusting the image to how you move your head. I think I'm interested to find out how the overall experience differs from seeing a flat picture as opposed to looking through a pretend window.

One odd turn of events, is the PlayStation Eye (PS3) camera is recommended for this, just because it's cheap. But they probably won't be available for long yet. I've ordered two to experiment with. If my workstation can run both, I will experiment with hand tracking (for seeing your hands mainly) and tracking from more than one vantage, to see if it improves the experience. That said, my only goal is to solve the drift problem, somehow, but it could be pretty straightforward to add other things.

(SO! Even though I hadn't any intention to use the PS4's bundled camera, we are still talking about PlayStation peripherals, funnily enough.)
