Utility space at the back.

Webcam Mesh

Found this crazy experimental demo thing done with html, css and webGL ..on the personal site of Felix Turner(a freelance web developer and creative technologist).



It uses your webcam to take an image and then simulates a 3d mesh effect!



try it out at - http://airtightinteractive.com/demos/js/webcammesh/



According to @felixturner it creates a 3d depth map by mapping pixel brightness to Z-Depth. read more about it here



See the rest of Felix's work here.
