This is a very quick and dirty test I did using a pipe cleaner stick figure. Against a metal board, pipe cleaners turned out to be even easier than I thought because the metal in the pipe cleaner sticks easily to tiny magnets. Yes, I accidently got my hand in one of the frames, but since I'm using the SAM application, it would involve redoing the whole thing to fix it, since the computer had been moved by the time I noticed.
One major thing I learned from doing this with SAM and my laptop's webcam is the lightsource becomes a problem. The lighting changes dramatically with how close my (relatively pink and red) face and my blue shirt got to the screen. I think the next time I try this I will use a different camera, or add side and fill lighting. But this works fine for a small submission for this assignment.
