Hi community,

Thanks to Gael's great project, I have 99% completed head and parts of the torso.

So far I have not integrated a camera, but for testing purposes the laptop camera works fine. Upon voice command the camera turns on and off and on the OpenCV tab in MRL I can see that even face tracking works.

Unfortunately InMoov's head is not moving at all.

Any idea how to enable physical object tracking and make InMoov's head following the camera?

Best regards,
Sven

Did you click on the opencv picture in mrl to select a point which the program should track? did you use track humans? Maybe you want to head over to the MyRobotLab.org website and make a blogpost, explain what you did, and what you want, they can help you with anything mrl related.

Hello,
You can use these voice commands:
-FACE DETECTION ( this will launch detection and tracking a face)
-FACE REGNIZER (this will lauch the filter to recognize faces, it needs to have learned at least two faces to work properly)
-FACE TRACKING ( this will launch face detection and face recognition, (need a good cpu))
-TRACK (this will launch object tracking, you need to mouse point the target to be tracked)

-FREEZE TRACK (will shut down any of the above function)

Nota: The head will move correctly only if the camera is set inside (the eye), because it uses PID controls to move the servos in the correct positions.

Thanks Gael,
You pointed me in the right direction.
Tracking works fine with an integrated camera.
