I am trying to connect a webcam into Unity and track faces. This is for placing 3d models such as "vtuber" faces or a whole character body as an AR implementation into the webcam. I don't necessarily want to use it for a mobile app (it is made to be used in Windows). Btw I am not good at C# scripting myself. Are there any guides or tutorials that can help me understand how it is done? Hope you understood what I am getting at. Any help is appreciated!

I need the WiFi strength of nearly access points to triangulate the position of the Android device user and show him the part of the building, he is located at the moment. It's for a location based game for new students at my university. There are easy ways with Java or Xamarin and C#, but i couldn't find a way to solve the problem using the Unity engine and C#. It there a way to get it?
I have a complete Android solution in Java from a fellow student and i tried to use AndroidJavaObjects to use that in my program, but without success. It seems to be too complex for that. Are there maybe other ways to use that Java Android code in Unity?
Thanks in advance for the help.
i know this is most likely a duplication and i am truly sorry for that but most of the solutions i found was either +7 years outdated, bugged or consume so much memory
all i need is an efficient way to access the webcam to record and display to use it in a computer vision project to detect moving objects and such, with an HD output (using HD camera of course)
also if there is a library that would help with the computer vision that would also be great
any information, tips or experience would be highly appreciated, thanks in advance and have a wonderful day.
You could use AForge.net, it's available as a nuget package and gets the job done.
Here is an example of it. It's a winform application, but I use this library in WPF app as well.
[EDIT] Actually, I think I found what you're looking for, download this. It's a piece of code that has been written for a french azure contest. It's a motion detector written with aforge.net. There is 2 part to it, the first is a wpf client that capture movement. The second is an azure website where the image captured is uploaded automatically.
I have a Nikon D90 connected to my laptop via USB. I need to be able to simply trigger the camera to capture an image via C#.
This seems like it should be an easy problem but I have been drowning trying to figure it out...
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
You would need Nikon's SDK to accomplish that. What you're after is a remote control function for your camera. Nikon is offering their SDK for free but there's a lengthy T&C, a learning curve and a hunt for the C# wrapper so it's not a trivial task.
I am working on a project which requires me to render a virtual character onto the kinect video feed in which the player appears.
I am attempting to use Unity3D to accomplish this. I have looked at Zigfu but I don't think this directly helps. I still want to be able to send data from my C# WPF program to the game engine (I am forking my project off from kinect Fusion Explorer). Ideally Unity would be rendering the character and movement, my WPF program would be sending information to Unity about the landscape and running the Kinect feed.
Has anyone attempted this or have any idea how this could be achieved?
If this is not possible with Unity, are there other game dev libraries I could use to render a character onto the Kinect feed?
Thanks
If you want to send data via network (sockets) you will face problems with the size of frames. So my opinion is to use WCF. I'm not sure if it works for you, but this's how I managed it in my project (sending position and orientation)
I'm trying to use a 2D camera to recognize the device/object a user is pointing at so I was looking for a skeleton tracking software using a 2D camera in order to be able to do that. Is there any open source project that deals with skeleton tracking using 2D cameras?
(I've gone through tons of links on Google and it seems like most of what's there is just research papers but no actual open source projects)
Thanks!
Skamleton could be an option. It's an open-source project in early stages, but it implements a background subtractor, a skin color classifier, blob tracking and face classification. There is a demo on YouTube.
Note Skamleton use simple cameras, not RGB-D (depth) cameras as the Kinectic system (Kinect uses a structured light device from PrimSense).
It seems there's kind of a pre-release of a SDK for Kinect from Microsoft. Perhaps this might be helpful for you:

(Although I think this won't be Open Source. But since you are using c#, a Microsoft SDK might be ok for you.)
This seems like an old post, but in case anyone is still looking Extreme Reality uses a regular webcam and does skeleton tracking. It's not open source, but I've played around with it a bit and it does seem to be fairly robust.
