Today I did further research into controlling an on-screen character using a webcam. Before today this was capable however I was unable to make it interact with other on-screen items such as collectable coins, maze walls and the level exit. After a couple of hours of trial and error I have succeeded in making the coins and level exit ‘active’ in the sense that they now work with the character when controlled by the webcam as opposed to the arrow keys on the keyboard.
The maze walls however still fail to detect the character and therefore do not work at this moment in time. If I am unable to find a solution to this problem then I will properly create to mini games, one controlled by the webcam where you just collect items before leaving the level, the other a keyboard controlled version of what would have been the webcam game.
