Pure-code lighting: WebGL shader plus MediaPipe hand tracking replaces a real bulb

ramramlab · reddit · 2026-11-06

A dev shares an experiment where the bulb is off and the light is rendered by a real-time WebGL shader, with MediaPipe tracking hands and body so the glow lands correctly. Clear glass proved hard to track in the dark, so a green sticker is used as a marker; the author asks for better detection ideas.
