CVPuppets takes visual, skeletal input from a Microsoft Kinect and mimincs that input in a drawing or model. Essentially it creates a visual puppet that a human body controls.
The user should first make sure they have access to a Microsoft Kinect for testing.
The user should then install all the necessary packages, found in requirements.txt by running the line
sudo pip install -r requirements.txt from the command line.
For more information on which packages are to be installed (and why), please refer to requirements.txt.
Run freenect-glview to display infrared camera output from the Kinect to make sure it is working.
Run python3 kinect_test.py to display an OpenCV interpretation of the infrared output.
This repo is free to use. Go nuts.
