MP: Peter: MirrorImage

MirrorImage:

The concept:

A Mirror is placed somewhere in the room.
When you walk by it, nothing happens, when you look into it, it will take a SnapShot of you,
without you knowing it.

The Technical Part:
The Mirror is a piece of glass, which "Reflective Window Film" on it.
Which will make it work as a mirror on one side, and can be seen through from the other side.
On that other side, a webcam is placed, which will look for a Face.
Once it finds the face, it will take a SnapShot.

Supply:

  • Piece of Glass with "Reflective Window Film".
  • Webcam (Isight for Mac / Labtec for Windows).
  • OpenFrameWorks-script which will detect a Face, and takes a SnapShot.
  • Mac to run the OF-script on.
Update:
I'm working on the OF-script to detect the Face and take the SnapShot.
The "Reflective Window Film" is being shipped in, posted in England (Monday 12th of Januari),
so I hope it will be here soon.
