Getting webcam stream as input in unreal

[mahamohyeldin]

First of all, I would like to thank you for such a great plugin. I wanna play live streaming in my unreal project, and take the hand movement as input in unreal to control the object movement in the game. Can you help me?

Hmm, you should be able to use my plugin for the live streaming, and there are many options for using hand movement as input. I would recommend having a look at the kinect or LEAP motion APIs.

Thanks for response, i did download the Leap motion SDK, but the sdk couldn't detect the webcam. Do you have any idea about input configuration files in unreal. If i wrote in the script and imported it, is it sufficient and i don't have to edit the axis mapping?

Another question how to write the webcam in the script, does it have a known format? Web Cam or Webcam, etc...?

You need the leap camera unit for that API, a webcam wont work.

I would recommend checking out the UE4 docs for input: https://docs.unrealengine.com/latest/INT/Gameplay/Input/

For web cameras and their specs, you need to check the manufacturers info I'm afraid.
