Turn gestures into show control. Magic Event tracks body pose and gestures from your camera and sends OSC, FreeD & DMX to lights, PTZ cameras & rigs in real time.
Magic Event Live turns body gestures and poses into professional live show control from your iPhone or iPad.
The app recognizes hands and body movement in real time and sends commands over your local network via OSC, FreeD, and DMX (Art-Net and sACN). No cloud, no server delay - everything runs on your device.
WHO IT'S FOR • Broadcast directors and camera operators
• Lighting designers and console programmers
• VJs, installation artists, and performers
• Technical directors for concerts and corporate shows
HOW IT WORKS
Configure gesture slots - up to 20 different triggers.
Capture a reference frame for each gesture or pose.
Set IP destinations on your local network.
Press Start - the camera tracks movement and sends signals to lights, PTZ cameras, media servers, and any gear that accepts OSC, FreeD, or DMX.
RECOGNITION MODES • One hand
• Two hands
• Body pose
• Pose + one hand
• Pose + two hands
Per slot: sensitivity threshold, send mode (continuous, pause, hold), and output rate.
