awesome! Smiley Keep up the great work!
Do you have any schematics / tutorial for how you set it up.. I'm really interested in making my own, just don't know where to start.

Best,

please check out

the forums and wiki were very helpful, but it takes a bunch of trips of going back and forth between home depot and radioshack. For some reason, this seems to be more common in europe.

there are links for touchlib (reading in blobs), samples for processing, flash, and vvvv. This stuff is pretty computational intensive, so you'll at least need a dual-core, or 2 computers.

I'm not sure what jeff han uses for his own api's, but processing runs faster compared to flash or vvvv. I'd rather stay away from c++, just b/c of the compatibility problems across operating systems.

I'm just riding the wave, nothing original, but at the same time, using your computer and drawing images with your fingers is awesome.
