Tea lights for tracking?

[Americanzer0]

So i havent tried it yet, but has anyone considered using those LED [candle] tea lights? I see that they are like $1.00 a piece at some places, and i think all they need would be some tape to color the light maybe?

Link is a random picture from google as to what i am talking about…

Correction, no tape needed, as there are many different colors to choose from?!

hopefully these are big enough and bright enough for a kinect to track.

I actually had one of these, but I threw it away :(.

What is color tracking like in the current build of D4VR?
Is it restricted to full body only? Unlike 4.X that will release with color based lower body tracking?

That’s a good question on itself, I havn’t had a lot of testing with Colour tracking as once I got the skeletal tracking working I never went back. Now I’m curious on how good is it, I’ve notice with skeletal tracking, it gets quite hard to bend over or even having both hands on the same side, (facing either left or right from the Kinect) I am wondering because the skeletal tracking is soo depended on the traking the bones it has little freak outs when you try anything more complex then standing head on. would colour tracking not have this issue, be it still needing to face the Kinect but would it be somewhat less stressed about where my hands are rather then how my hands got there?

I tried the tea light and tgey just had to be flickering ones. As above i threw mine away too lol.
