I wouldn't try doing such a project in flash - at least not the camera/image analysis/person tracking part. That'll be very performance sensitive as even small lags are very noticable in things like that. Nothing stopping you from doing the actual effects in flash though. Check out the art installations of Zachary Booth Simpson. Totally awesome ideas IMHO, he's been doing this for years and it requires lots of the same techniques you'll need. http://www.mine-control.com/ Also, there are some papers available for masking the speaker from the projected image. This is useful for presentations if you walk around in front of the projected image and don't want the image projected onto yourself. cheers, Sören PS: While he doesn't seem to be a troll the original question and backstory do sound mighty strange and piqued my interest ;-) -- Sören Meyer-Eppler software developer soeren.meyer-epp...@buschnick.net http://www.BuschnicK.net _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
