Send OSC + Pose Detection​

There is a special mode for sending pose detection data. When connecting the output of a Detect Pose node to this node, it will send out all individiual channels as separate messages. For example, if the address is /pose, the messages will be formatted as follows:

/pose/nose 0.35431 0.24342 0.23423478 0.9823

The values are x, y, z and visibility (whether the body part is visible or not).

There is also a pose filter parameter to specify the specific body parts to send. By default this sends everything (*). For example, to only send out the right and left shoulders:

right_shoulder, left_shoulder

Here is the full list of body parts that can be sent out:

nose,
left_eye_inner, left_eye, left_eye_outer, right_eye_inner, right_eye, right_eye_outer,
left_ear, right_ear, mouth_left, mouth_right,
left_shoulder, right_shoulder, left_elbow, right_elbow,

left_hip, right_hip, left_knee, right_knee,
left_ankle, right_ankle, left_heel, right_heel, left_foot_index, right_foot_index
