January 18, 2002
Advertisement Cycling '74 has announced a distribution agreement with Code Artistry LLC to sell the Cyclops video input analysis system. Cyclops, a Max/MSP object for multimedia development created by New York-based artist and programmer Eric Singer, is a perfect solution for artists and performers who want to add video control to their work without investing in expensive standalone hardware or software. Cyclops is a second-generation version of Singer's popular VideoIn object. It adds color support, a graphical editing interface, improved zone identification, and saving of user settings. It supports most QuickTime-compatible video input hardware. The Cyclops object receives input from a video input source such as a video capture card, USB or FireWire video input, analyzes the video frames and outputs Max/MSP control messages based on the images. The user can specify areas of an input image to analyze and the type of analysis to perform. The Cyclops objects supports grayscale, threshold, difference (motion) or color analysis on the incoming video image., Its simple control output format allows for seamless integration of motion control and object tracking into the interactive Max4/MSP2 multimedia programming environment. Cyclops is available January 2002. List price is $99. The award-winning Max4/MSP2 programming environment is available from Cycling '74 for $495. Demo versions, purchases and upgrades are available online. For more information, visit their web site at http://www.cycling74.com/.
