Interactive Particles – TouchDesigner + Kinect Tutorial 1

Is kinect still viable for TD in 2023?

Can i use a camera insteat of Kinnect?

Hello, how come my show emitter source is greyed out in my particlesGPU? It is also in my Particle Source Menu not Render, thank you

Hi can it be connected to Arduino and using a ultrasonic sensor to control the movement?

hi! thank you so much for this!! i would love to know what kind of PC do you prefer for touchdesigner. i currently have a dell G15, but the particle GPU is super slow and the over all performance is laggy. would you have any PC recommendations?

This is one amazing tutorial. i have been looking how to.... For a long while. THANKS!!!!

Could you pleaseeee make a tutorial on how you did the interaction of the hallway in the Dubai bar?

could you do an updated version regarding the particlesgpu? apparently there has been a new 1.1 version which is so different that we cant follow your tutorial anymore. there's no grid and things changes so much

Hey this is really cool and informative. However, I have a quick question, can this experience be built using Unity3D and Kinect?

why i get a very low amount of particles? has something to do whit my graphic card? or i miss something in the tutorial?

I stuck at the grid. There’s no grid nor similar node inside my particleGpu, is it because of the version?

“Kinect death map” 😂❤

Hi, Thanks for your sharing. It is very useful. As this video was taken in 2021, I am using the 2022 32120 version. I found that the particlesGPU has changed. Are there any updates or tutorials about adopting the new particlesGPU and 2021 versions? Otherwise, I might download the old version of TD. Thank you.

Could you possibly do a new tutorial with the new particlesGPU?

Thanks for sharing this video.

hi how are you? I tried to install the kinect v2 on my pc (windows 10) but I get an error message when I try to add the kinect to the program, I use my computer's webcam, I don't know if that's the problem ... I would really appreciate the help!!

the newest version of touchdesigner has some pretty significant changes to the particlegpu. I'm downloading an older version and trying again..

Hey, working on a newer version of TD, I was unable to make it past the inside of particles. Wasn't sure what the "grid" was replaced by..

Brilliant tutorial. Thanks a million! Would there be a quick-ish way that you could explain here to set up the particle system to only output data / leaves when it receives movement from the kinect. So blank screen until the sensor picks up movement and passes it to the optical flow / particles gpu, then the leaves are created to follow the flow of the hand crossing the sensor, for example. Hope that makes sense. Thanks!

Can you give me the link to the file source in patron, I can not find it and I'm not sure you even give the file for download. \thanks
