Interactive Moving Lights Installation
An interactive moving lights installation in Rouyn-Noranda and Montreal at the same time.
This is part of Interactive Lab with Verlatour.
Interactivity Lab with Verlatour is a digital art lab. Students from the University of Québec in Abitibi-Témiscamingue in Rouyn-Noranda worked with french music artist Verlatour under the proposition of Jean-Ambroise Vesac. Interactive Moving Lights Installation is one part of the project.
User's arms movements are captured by a depth camera (Microsoft Kinect V2). Each arm is programmed to control different parameters to control the moving lights. Left arm controls the direction, while right arm controls the color.
People can control lights in the theatre in Rouyn-Noranda, but also lights in the Société des Arts Technologiques room, at more than 600 kilometers of distance, with a delay of less than 4 seconds. This is achieved with a SCENIC Station created by the Société des Arts Technologiques in Montreal.
