jeff han / multi-touch
Jan 20th, 2007, 6:14pm  
multi-touch systems got some buzz recently with the apple iphone and new demos by jeff han (http://www.fastcompany.com/subscr/112/open_features-canttouchthis.html).

i was wondering if han uses processing for his implementation?
the project's website is linked here: http://processing.org/exhibition/network_page_4.html as "FTIR Multitouch Interaction Experiments - p davidson - 07 Feb '06"
...but I found no further info if this is valid. somewhere i read they use windows+directx...

does anyone know more?

Jeff and I had some email back-and-forth when his demo first hit the web. He said some of the first round of demos were coded using Processing. I don't know which, but not the lava. He said the Processing apps were "whipped up" and communicated to the system using OSC.

Regarding multi-touch, don't forget about the Lemur.

Lemur is sold out until late February early March.  I guess 2600 hundred dollar multi-touch devices are in high demand.

I'm documenting some work in multi-touch here

I'll be doing an update post tomorrow.

Could anyone help me in developing similar sketches as Philip Davidson? I am currently working towards making a p5 library which contains a multiscale interface, as well as configurable gesture engine.

I am receiving the input via OSC, and really need some ideas on how I would go about emulating the mouse, and converting gestures into actions.

Any direction would be great Smiley

Also if you have not seen http://r3nder.net/resource/archives/categorias/lab/multitouch_system.html
This is 100% processing and similar to what I wish to develop.

hi guys,

i've been putting stuff together based on this tutorial,  http://nuigroup.com/forums/viewthread/17/

My multitouch table isnt quite finished (need to get better at soldering leds), but I am very interested in helping building gestures. I've done a bunch of programming in virtual reality environments programming 3d interfaces and 3d gestures, I am just trying to get my system up to start generating some multi touch gesture code.

I have a processing app that uses a lot of data from a postgresql database, and would like to get the multitouch table up and running w/ a nintendo wii controller.

if anyone knows of open source packages or a community developing multi touch gestures in processing, please let me know.
