LEE JOON-SUH / CONTRIBUTION

Designed and tested a real-time response structure transforming camera input through edge extraction and color fields.

01

Connected camera input as a live visual source

02

Separated body and hand contours through edge extraction

03

Composited color fields and contours into three output variations

04

Repeatedly tested the relationship between movement, input, and response

CASE / PROCESS

From production problem to final image

01

Challenge

The result needed to communicate the relationship between camera input and visual response, not only an abstract image.

02

Process

  • Adjusted contour intensity by comparing the raw camera frame and processed output side by side.
  • Tested whether movement remained legible across different color-field variations.
03

Result

Completed a prototype connecting camera input, edge extraction, color fields, and real-time output.
