Brightness analysis

Hi,

I would like to analyze the video brightness in order to transform this light intensity into a midi signal.

Has anyone ever tried to do that ?
Any idea about how to achieve ?

Thanks.

Hi @Coin,

only way I can see this working is if you use eSyphonOut plugin to send the texture to Max device, and then make a device that uses jit.gl.syphonclient to get the texture, analyzes the image on the cpu and sends midi out.
Not super simple, but possible!
