Keystone Library for Processng
If you follow developments around VJ culture and Video Installation practises, Video Mapping practise has become a new Black with nearly everyone having a go at warping and mapping they video textures onto various objects in the space. Effective and brilliant approach. While some vj software have addressed this issue almost right away (eg vvvv, Module8) some other open source projects are taking initial steps in that direction.
Just came across this project called Keystone for Processing
Keystone is a video projection mapping library for Processing. Right now it allows you to warp your Processing sketches onto any flat surface by using corner pin keystoning, regardless of your projector’s position and orientation. The goal is to eventually expand this library to enable more advanced projection mapping, such as projecting on 3D models or curved surfaces and edge blending of multiple projector screens.
