Comments on: Initial Aesthetic Plans http://sethsandler.com/technology-multitouch/hardware/initial-aesthetic-plans/ Just another abstract, thought, art, code, and multitouch weblog Sun, 21 Mar 2010 20:18:46 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.1 hourly 1 By: cerupcat http://sethsandler.com/technology-multitouch/hardware/initial-aesthetic-plans/comment-page-1/#comment-110 cerupcat Thu, 27 Nov 2008 05:28:50 +0000 http://ssandler.wordpress.com/2007/10/09/initial-aesthetic-plans/#comment-110 Hi Ryan, I'm not sure which package you're referring to. If you're talking about the smoke demo and mouse driver, those don't work with tbeta. On the tbeta website you can find more demos under Flash Clients on the Downloads Tab and on nuigroup.com/forum if you search TUIO Mouse you can find a mousedriver for tbeta (eventually the mouse driver will also be on the tbeta website). If you're talking about the flash demos. Make sure you read the getting started guide on the tbeta site (you have to set the global security settings to get the flash applications running correctly).

I hooked it up using the new version of the tbeta. I also downloaded the old version of the package for all the games and stuff. The new tbeta works but not the package. I tried troubleshooting but it still doesn't work. Can you help me with the software? Hi,

I'm using a Genius Eye110 webcam, am i doing something wrong? I used both baking paper and a4 printing paper. Also my webcam has a very small 'veiwing area' ! HHHEEELLLP!

Incorperate a mini-itx computer or set up one of the side like an atx back panel so that you could directly put a motherboard inside and a slot with like a sata slim drive... I could try it myself but I don't have the funds for a projector :-) ...

Im looking at the prices right now, and its $60, it would be kind of hard for me to make that. Im thinking about doing another prototype (my 3-4th one) and putting the cam far away. Also on this youtube video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eq8xtYMxQyI) he uses tracing paper, which I just now put in, and lighting from the bottom, its propped up between 2 surfaces, and looks like the cam is pretty far, looks like great results. That phillips cam does 90 fps? WOW, someone said the human eye can only see 30 fps is that true? Thanks NUIMAN :) Hey Gui, are you in the nui group aswell?

Nice setup, I made my own mini box like you have done in the tutorial, and I'm ready to scale up too. How big exactly is this gonna be? Mine will be 10" x 20" and its gonna have to be pretty tall, since the webcam doesnt have a very wide angle. Also, I have a $40 logitech webcam, and the frame rate at 30 is still kind of skippy, laggy. Do you think with a higher webcam like yours it will perform better? (how much was yours and where did you get it?) I used a piece of plexiglass called "Lexan", which me and my dad bought from Lowes, its a nice piece of plexi, it has 2 sides, one a smooth white surface, and the other side a kind of foggy glassy surface. (tell me if you want, ill give you pictures) You should try using that on your final one, you can peel off either side you wish, but the white smooth texture one would be perfect for it. It works great. Also I like the software you have made, the photo app and also the multikey, please make some more. But on the "Ripples/Fire" one, the top left corner says "TUIO Socket not found". Does the windows mouse driver need to be installed or what? Sorry for all the questions haha. I think this does it for now, please reply. I'm 14 but I'm real good with computers, and this multi touch is awesome. Feel free to email me also: jrdillard94@yahoo.com Thank you very much! -JD Hello Cerup.
