Moving Poster Template
- Use this template for creating your Moving Poster
- Take care that your work appears correctly at different resolutions
- Avoid editing the OpenCV and setupScreen files
- You may need to adjust the lighting situation for the face tracking to work correctly
Tips for optimising Performance:
- Printing to the console is quite slow. Be sure to comment any print() and println() cals in your code before presenting.
- Optimise any graphic and videos so they are no bigger that absolutely necessary.
- Resizing images in real time is very slow. You can speed this up by resizing any images at the program start. See the example below.
- As a last resort, we can reduce the monitor resolution to speed things up
Resizing images
PImage bg; void setup() { size(640, 360); bg = loadImage("image.jpg"); bg.resize(width,height); // we rescale the image once here, instead of in the draw loop } void draw() { image(bg, 0, 0); // this is much faster than image.(bg, 0,0, width, height) which would rescales the graphics every frame }
Exporting for flip book
Template with PDF export function.
For exporting images the folowing code can be used (PDF doesn't work with 3D for example) :
Resizing images
void setup() { size(2100,2970,P3D); } void draw() { //code for exporting image on each frame save("export/frame"+frameCount+".png"); if (frameCount == 30) { exit(); } }
