Controlling digital particles by blowing into a sensor 🤓 Steven Mark Kübler shared a bunch of impressive demos of a setup that allows controlling digital particles in real-time by employing an Arduino-based controller alongside Derivative's TouchDesigner. The setup interprets information from various sensors and uses that data to dynamically adjust the gravitational acceleration within the scene. Oh, gosh, I'm such a nerd. What I meant to say is that you can blow air into a sensor or move your hands, and the setup will do the rest of the magic.
