you don't want to strip the selector. the selector is there to hint at the type (at least in the case of 'float' and 'symbol'), but it cannot change the type of the atom (symbol:'1' vs float:1). what you do want is to convert a symbol into a number. attached is a vanilla [symbol2int]

Hello Jonathan! as i understand it, you want to track only a hand. i don´t know if you know about the Leap Motion Controller[1]. This one is specialized to detect hands and from what i read in your mail, could really fit. i have to admit, i havent played with it myself yet...but there is

Hello i did not mean to use of pmpd for your problem. in the example i was pointing at, a physical model is triggered by the movement- i wanted to point to the plain tracking system incorporated in this example- with bgsubstract, morphlogy and boundingrect- as this works quite stable. by

[PD] Cyclone suite initiative

2014-12-05 Thread Fred Jan Kraan
Hi everyone, Recently I started on improving the help-patches of the cyclone library. The idea is to convert then all to the format used by the pd-core objects in pd-vanilla, which is also the standard with Pd-l2ork and try to improve them a bit on the way. It is part of a larger initiative to

Why not simply use cyclone help patches provided in pd-l2ork that already conform to the pddp standard? On Dec 5, 2014 3:59 PM, Fred Jan Kraan fjkr...@xs4all.nl wrote: Hi everyone, Recently I started on improving the help-patches of the cyclone library. The idea is to convert then all to the

I think that's a good idea. But then Pd Vanilla aficionados might complain that to use cyclone they would be forced to also install the pddp library for [pddplink] and [helplink], because those objects do not ship with Pd Vanilla.  Otherwise they would end up with a lot of broken objects in
