In this tutorial, we'll dive into Torin's new DepthAnything plugin for TouchDesignerโa drop-in .tox that turns any webcam or TOP into a real-time depth map (no extra installs or special hardware) for Mac + PC. Weโll explore instanced visuals with trails, experiment with occlusion, and set up high-quality depth exports. We'll also show how to integrate the plugin with Josef Pelzโs PCR point-cloud renderer tool, and Prismatic's screen-space depth rendering tool for rim lights and material controls.
