Interactive Real-Time Eye Clock Installation

Job ID: 39876084

Budget: $250 – $750 USD

Interactive Digital Art Installation – “Eye of Time” (Real-Time Clock Overlay on Moving Eye Video)

Project Description

I am creating an immersive digital art installation based on a looping video of a human eye (HD, 1920×1080). In this video, the eye slowly moves from left to right and back to center, and the pupil is entirely white.

I need a freelancer (preferably experienced in Unity 3D, Unreal Engine, or TouchDesigner) to build a real-time interactive version of this piece.

The goal: inside the white pupil, there are three clock hands (hours, minutes, seconds), perfectly aligned, moving in sync with the system clock (real time). The hands must follow the pupil’s movement in the video, as though embedded in the eye.The hands are part of the pupil so will be covered by the blinking eye when it blinks.

Color scheme:

Hour hand → black

Minute hand → black

Second hand → red

The final deliverable must be a standalone Windows executable (.exe) that, once launched:

Plays the eye video in seamless loop

Shows the clock hands (hours, minutes, seconds) anchored to the moving pupil

Runs fullscreen, with no window borders

Uses the computer’s system time for precise synchronization

Technical Details

Input: HD video (1920×1080, 20-second seamless loop)

Output: Windows executable

Fullscreen presentation, no window border or UI chrome

Real-time clock synch with system clock

Smooth rendering (ideally 60 FPS)

Accurate color reproduction (no unwanted compression/gamma shifts)

Preferred Tools / Skills

Unity 3D or Unreal Engine (real-time rendering)

Video texture mapping / compositing

Overlay UI / real-time clock rendering

Motion tracking or position syncing (for moving pupil)

Experience in digital art installations or time-based visuals is a plus

Deliverables

Working Windows executable (.exe) that runs the installation full screen

Source project files (Unity, Unreal, or equivalent)

Instructions to update or replace the video file

Timeline & Budget

Flexible, ideally within 2–3 weeks. Budget negotiable based on expertise and scope.

Additional Notes
Video of the empty white eye will be provided to the creator.
This is an art installation, not a game — the emphasis is on visual quality, smoothness, and conceptual fidelity rather than interactivity.
