Have you checked out the Body Tracking Guru Session? It comes with a set of files that may prove useful.

The OpenNI Tracker Tutorial file (for the OpenNI plugins) may also be helpful as a starting point.

This forum thread has some helpful work from @bonemap you could try to incorperate. 

From the TroikaTronix Add-Ons page, there's also this 3d lines puppet for the OpenNI actors, which is also from the fabulous @bonemap.

You could probably also adapt the work that @mark posted in this forum thread.

Searching the forum for "3D particles" may also turn up other treasures for you :)

Best wishes,

 Thanks. It was just a bit of fun but it made me smile so thought it would be useful for others. 

@michel Great, thanks just tried it out! Thank you for the fast reply!

Hi Ryan,

Here is an updated patch with a user actor that calculates the optimum Pulse trigger setting and Particle Count based on using the properties set in the Isadora Preferences for Target Frame Rate and General Service Tasks.

You are absolutely right! You have raised this issue as a prerequisite, and thank you - your generic formula will assist in optimising patches that use this technique and is a great contribution. I will make sure it goes into the notes for the version that uploads to the Plugins page.

Best Wishes

Russell
