Is it possible to detect an object in a video from a camera? (GDNativ?) Would you like to have this feature too?

Question

Is it possible to detect an object (e.g. a board game or a moving miniature car) with a video camera?

Board game: Show sights at their board game position in 3D.
Miniature car: detect if it crosses the finish line.

Is this planned, or is there a GDNative library?
Would you like to see this feature as well?

Edit: I want to track an object in the real world with an normal camera. (As soon as the CameraServer works for all OS)

I assume you want an "object" in a video feed to be tracked?
Have you checked https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/tutorials/vr/vr_primer.html?

Would this be possible with a normal camera or only with VR ?

If it's normal camera, you'd want to use AR. I haven't used Godot's AR/VR core, but I think both modules are coupled together.

Answer 1

I don't understand what you mean but the closest is VisibilityNotifier. It checks if a node is visible in your camera
