Hi everyone, firstly I am a total newbie to lasers but I have done alot of research before posting this message so be nice
I want to use a laser in an interactive art installation. I would be using an xbox kinect or some other motion detectors and then creating images with the laser based on detected movement. The motion tracking would be done in Openframeworks and then I would send a signal through osc to something that can generate laser images.
I have looked at different options to achieve this.
1) Using Pangolin QuickShow and triggering things in it through midi or osc
2) Using VVVV and the minilumax (http://www.lumax.de/)
Option 2 seems like it would be better but I can't find anywhere to by the minilumax online, I have emailed the company and waiting to hear back.
So I guess my question is are there any other options to achieve what I want or is there any other advice someone can give me?
