tracking.js
A lightweight JavaScript library for real-time computer vision in the browser, including color tracking and face detection.
What is tracking.js?
tracking.js is a lightweight JavaScript library that enables computer vision directly in web browsers. It provides real-time capabilities like color tracking, face detection, and object tracking using modern HTML5 APIs. The library solves the problem of bringing computationally intensive visual processing to client-side web applications without server dependencies.
Web developers and creative coders building interactive browser-based applications that require real-time visual analysis, such as educational tools, artistic installations, or augmented reality experiences.
Developers choose tracking.js for its minimal footprint (~7KB core), intuitive interface, and ability to perform computer vision entirely in the browser without plugins. It's uniquely positioned as one of the few comprehensive computer vision libraries native to the web environment.
