Optiplay

Inspiration

I wanted to work on a project that allowed people to use the internet as effortlessly as possible.

What it does

Optiplay is library that allows developers to implement head-movement controls into their applications.

How I built it

I use tracker.js to fetch the location of objects in real time. The optiplay.js library takes the tracker object as an input, as well as several types of output along with callbacks for each type of output. Internally, this library calculates head tilts using bounding boxes and then stores the coordinate data in order to detect additional movements like nodding up and down.

For the demo, I found a mario game written in Javascript online and rewired it to use optiplay.
