Webcam plus OpenCV fun

Last Updated or created 2024-07-30

While attending Bornhack 2024 in Danmark, I came up with the below fun ideas.

Using Python and OpenCV, I made some funny webcam hacks.

Note: My laptop webcam is very bad, a better webcam should give you a more stable result.

First, a virtual workspace flipper. Just using my head movement to flip through my virtual desktops. (Turning left and right)

Next, an image viewer.
Using your head movement up, down, left and right to control the image.
Note : this is not the same movement as above. This won’t use rotation of your head!
