Tangible interactive art using marker tracking in front projection environment: The Face Cube

Abstract

The Face Cube is a work of interactive art which is targeted to children. To implement this art work, we use a camera-projector system. Instead of rear projection and edge detection method, we choose front projection approach and histogram-based detection method for interaction. This paper describes how to design the Face Cube and marker design for robust interaction, efficient way to remove projection lights from the front projection system for marker recognition, histogram-based marker detection, marker information management.
