Measure light level of video_in

I want to use a webcam and vvvv to play a sound file as soon as the light in my room is dimmed down.

how do I do this? trautner would be too inaccurate, since it would react to any change…

use pipet and hsl split … best would be you have a look at the pipet helppatch

Pipet, HSV and + (Spectral)

Hehe, you’ve been faster - some seconds

you might also be able to detect the difference between different lamps or determine their position by some clever calibration.
