Leap Camaera Image for MediaPipe

vvvv gamma question
1

Hi there,
is there any other way to get the video data into mediaPipe?
I have a LeapMotion as my only camera. I am using Leap Motion handtracking to simulate some clicking. Now I want to use the camera image with mediaPipe for some swipe gesture for faster recognision of the hand. both need to work at the same time.
First problem. MediaPipe is not giving any output when using the leap camera.
second problem. If it would work with the leap motion, would the leap be still available for the leap tracking?
So my idea is to get the image output of the ultraleap->images node into mediaPipe.
any ideas ? may be with shared textures?

I guess you can pipe the images coming from Ultraleap through SpoutCam. There will be a delay of about 3-5 frames though iirc. Also not sure how well Mediapipe will work with the grayscale image that is also quite distorted.

I am just trying out obs studio. Do you think spoutCam is better, or faster?

Should have less overhead as you don’t have to have some other software (like obs) running. But haven’t tested it.
