I just fetched a Open Source Virtual Background experiment from https://elder.dev/posts/open-source-virtual-background/ (props to @BenTheElder) and tweaked it a bit:

• Added some scripts to ease running the experiment with Docker
• Added some more scripts to ease running the experiment without Docker (easier IMHO)
• Tweaked everything needed to make it run on the CPU instead of the GPU
  • Disabled GPU
  • Reduced the framerate
  • Reduced the resolution
• Improved the hologram effect adding a subtle animation to the scanlines and some of transparency
• Added more backgrounds, implemented video backgrounds, and made the backgrounds change automatically every minute
• Implemented command parameters to specify video devices, background paths, etc

How to setup and run

• Without docker:

  ./run.sh

• With docker:

  ./run_docker.sh
