The Kinect has made the idea of using cameras for games a mainstream idea.  But even with out depth sensors, cameras can be used for interactions.  In this intro tutorial using the Processing creative coding framework, you will learn how cameras represent reality, how to manipulate the image a camera provides, and different techniques for using a camera as inputs into a game.
