Body Echo
is an interactive installation. The goal of the project is to arouse interest in the visitor. The user can interact with the installation by standing in front of the canvas and can experiment with his own movements. The installation could be used for dance presentations, in the theatre or in museums as an interesting background element.
The construction is made out of a webcam, white canvas and a projector. The person has to stand between the projector and the canvas. The webcam recognizes his shadow on the canvas. Controlled via the special tool "Processing",so the shadow gets tracked. Graphic elements appear and follow the tracked shadow.
