Great Capture demo mockup

The Great Capture

The Great Capture is a web interactive game that uses your camera to 'take pictures' of animals.

Project Scope: p5.js, ml5.js, html, javascript, interaction/game design
Tools: VS Code, ml5.js (HandPose and ImageClassifier as reference), Illustrator
Timeline: February - March 2025 (2 months)
Project made in collaboration with Sylvie Leyerle

Tasked with utilizing any of the ml5.js libraries to create an interactive demo, we wanted to create something like a game to engage the user. While thinking about how the user can physically interact with our project, we decided to create a mini game.

This project uses ml5.js (machine learning) to track and recognize the hands and the poses to 'take a picture'. By making the certain motions as directed in the intro, you are able to follow the animals that move around the screen and capture an image that shows on the bottom of the page.
