Dustin, it sounds like you were looking at a the "hand detection" with OpenCV or optical flow things I have been doing perhaps? Maybe not! What you are seeing isn't "hand detection" by using the haar filter... I have simply taken the the the "video track".qtz that Chris setup and modified it so that I can "click points" to set a "coordinate". I then am using structure sorts to get it to interact with other QC parameters. So, it is interacting with my hand, but only because I set the coordinate to my finger tips manually.
I don't know how great optical flow type of function would be for Apple to start putting in their Apps, considering the way that background lighting effects all kinds of motion tracking.... it can be great, but I could imagine a litany of complaints and bug filings if they integrated it as is into something like Cover Flow.
