This would be a great feature, being able to generate a 3D mesh geometry from image/video. Similar to Rutt-Eta.
Proposed nodes
(Mockup by Team Vuo.)
Team Vuo proposes adding 3 nodes:
Make Grid Mesh
— Outputs a mesh with one of the following types:- Horizontal Lines — outputs a line strip for each row (equivalent to v002's "Scanlines" mode)
- Vertical Lines — outputs a line strip for each column
- Square Outlines — combines Horizontal and Vertical Lines, producing square outlines where each corner is a cell (equivalent to v002's "Square Mesh" mode)
- Triangle Outlines — combines Horizontal and Vertical Lines, producing pairs of triangle outlines where each corner is a cell (equivalent to v002's "Triangle Mesh" mode)
Make Grid Point Mesh
— Outputs a mesh with a point for each cell (equivalent to v002's "Points" mode)Displace Mesh with Image
— Moves the vertices in the input mesh based on the brightness of the input image.
...and modifying the existing Make Square Vertices
node to allow selecting how many rows/columns to output.
(In Vuo 0.8.0, we're planning to rename the existing "Vertices" type and ports to "Mesh", for clarity.)
Here's an example of using these proposed nodes:
