#MotionDetector.js
##Demos and examples
Colormotion
Sensitive particles(Refactored now)
##Important note! Before calling the update function in the first time, set some delay, it prevents NS_ERROR_NOT_AVAILABLE in Firefox.
var animate = function(){
motionDetector.update();
requestAnimFrame(animate);
};
setTimeout(function () {
animate();
}, 3000);
##Using
To start working you need to create a motion detector object:
var md = new MotionDetector(document.getElementById('video'), document.getElementById('output'));
Here you are calling the constructor with 2 parameters: HTML5VideoObject for an input stream and HTML5 Canvas Object for drawing processed data. Second parameter is not required.
On each frame you need to update a motion detector, which captures current picture of a frame, compares with a last and draws a motion data into output canvas element.
md.update();
By default picture of motions will be black and white. White pixel - motion was, black pixel - no motion.
You can easily add a color to a motion picture with a help of a setColor method, which takes 2 parameteres.
First parameter is a color of pixel, where motion was.
Second parameter is a color of pixel, where motion wasn't.
Example:
//color of pixel where motion was
var differenceRGBA = {
r: 255,
g: 0,
b: 0,
a: 0.5
}
//color of pixel where motion wasn't
var similarityRGBA = {
r: 0,
g: 0,
b: 0,
a: 1
}
md.setColor(differenceRGBA, similarityRGBA);
If you want to set more than just a color, use onDifference and onSimilarity handlers, you can read about it below.
Handle a motion in each pixel.
Motion detector calls this handler with two parameters: first - context of output canvas element, second - coordinates of the pixel.
Example:
md.onDifference = function(blendedCtx, e){
blendedCtx.save();
blendedCtx.fillStyle = '#ff0000';
blendedCtx.beginPath();
blendedCtx.arc(e.x, e.y, 10, 2 * Math.PI, false);
blendedCtx.closePath();
blendedCtx.fill();
blendedCtx.restore();
};
Handle an inaction in each pixel.
Motion detector calls this handler with two parameters: first - context of output canvas element, second - coordinates of the pixel.
Example:
md.onSimilarity = function(blendedCtx, e){
blendedCtx.save();
blendedCtx.fillStyle = '#000000';
blendedCtx.fillRect(e.x, e.y, 1, 1);
blendedCtx.restore();
};
By default motion detector on each update clears a canvas by calling a clearRect method.
You can set a motion detector behavior on each update to your notice.
Example:
md.onUpdate = function(ctx){
ctx.fillStyle = 'rgba(180, 180, 180, 0.1)';
ctx.fillRect(0, 0, ctx.canvas.width, ctx.canvas.height);
};
Check a rectangle area for a motion.
md.checkArea(x, y, width, height [, step of checking]);
Example:
if(md.checkArea(0, 0, 50, 50)){
alert('Motion!');
}
Return a motion average of a rectangle area.
Example(same as example of a checkArea method):
if(md.getMotionAverage(0, 0, 50, 50) > 100){
alert('Motion!');
}
To get an image object of a non-colored motion data, call 'getBlended' method.
md.getBlended();
