TECHNICAL DETAIL: My overall architecture is to pass video data as if they were very large blocks of audio data between objects. My video_in_rgb object, for instance, outputs three data streams, one for red, green and blue.
All of this sounds great, I do have one question though. Why did you choose to implement your own data processing concept, instead of using the pix objects from gem ?
Image data is inherently different from audio data, therefore the gain you have from being able to reuse the pd signal processing objects (which are optimized for audio calculations) doesn't seem to be worth it.
Or put the other way, what was it that you didn't like about them GEM way ?
