Hello everyone, I am a participant in this year's Swift Student Challenge. My project requires the use of the front-facing camera to detect the user's body movements (supporting connection via iPhone to a Mac or other devices capable of running Xcode/Swift Playgrounds).
I would like to ask if this is permitted under the competition rules? Please note that this feature functions entirely offline and does not require an internet connection.
Thanks for the question, there are better developers to answer your questions than I am, as I am not in that team.
But if you need a device to show your capabilities beyond the simulator it seems like is allowed. Please check this reply: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/815172
I believe Swift Playgrounds supports the use of the front-facing camera for detecting body movements. Frameworks such as ARKit and Vision provide capabilities for face tracking and human body pose detection. ARKit's ARFaceTrackingConfiguration.
Good luck, hopefully other people from that team jumps in this thread. But reading the Student Challenge Rule webpage, I do not see anything that prevents you.
