Touchless touch

[jez]

Anyone tried this?

http://www.codeplex.com/touchless

I installed it on my NC10 but it didn’t run (I hadn’t installed the .net framework at the time – so I suspect that was my problem). I’ve only just remembered it and will try again at the weekend.

Touchless started as Mike Wasserman’s college project at Columbia University. The main idea: to offer users a new and cheap way of experiencing multi-touch capabilities, without the need of expensive hardware or software. All the user needs is a camera, which will track colored markers defined by the user.

Hi,

I have just installed this touchless framework and it seems to run fine and you can get bits of things moving/drawing but it seems like it will take some getting used to it and not as smooth as they seem to have it on the video.

I believe there’s also a Microsoft application that does this now – I just can’t remember the name. Same concept though, they suggest using something like a highlighter to track.
