Render Pick without MultiTouchInDAT in TouchDesigner

Use any sort of interaction data for render picking, without the MultiTouchDAT! I will show you how to use any chop-based data as a source for render picking, applying these interactions to alter a point cloud instance-by-instance! We will scale, move and recolor instances with ease.
If you dont see the point cloud on file open, press ctrl-` to reset the system. I have also included a link to the HDR image I used for env map, and attached the substance file here as well. You might need to download these and update the paths for the scene to render properly.

can we change the moving points to Kinect gesture interaction or webcam interaction?

yes, that is the whole point of this tutorial. you just need to format your kinect data (or mediapipe data with webcam) to the same [u, v, select] format we used in the tutorial, then wire into the render pick dat
