What was the software at 2:02?

[ktstrayer]

Any idea how to hook up the wiimote? I am not a programmer.

[stefke72yamaha]

via bluetooth

[chris82o]

since your using a projector the room must be pretty dark great idea and good job putting it together

[ktstrayer]

Now, I would like to try this, but I have a webcam that I don't want to screw up. Are you able to use a Wii remote as the IR camera? after all, this is how it works is tracking IR points.

[CeekayProductions1]

I think you can use the wii remote as an IR camera, but the wii remote can only tack 4 points at the same time

[rustupidgay]

dark room hehe

[angusm33]

do you need a special IR camera?

[EtO124]

i'v got a question.

is it possible to use the multi touch as the normal cursor? so you need no mouse? So i mean can u controle your hole windows with it?

sry fore my bad english

[Svendevarennes]

Yes

[PRoPSproductions]

oh i see when the device picks-up the "blobs" it turns them into click messages relative to the position. Then we to enable it in your os just needs the ability to read multiple click messages.

this is just my guese

[TexZK]

Wow, anche a me piacerebbe costruirlo...

[ryanhawiya]

you should sell those... :)

I'm geeting sick of people refering to touch- screen (multi-touch or not) as "apple stuff".

Btw, cool display.

[andrewschule]

I know. Apple reall just brought it to the consumer market, the real multi touch is jeff han and stuff

[JaggedEdgeMedia]

congrats mate, a lot of hard work pays off!

Great stuff!!

[GuntaGuru]

Hi where did you get your sample from?

[blaxwan]

Hi, what sample you're referring to?

[GuntaGuru]

The projection material sample. I have been trying to get hold of a decent size sample for a LONG time. If you can help I would greatly appreciate it.

[blaxwan]

Hi, as I said in the other comment the sample was provided by Peroni, you'll find more info on my website (it is not possible to post links on youtube comments)

[Neurocaster]

Wow, congratulations, I watched some videos of Jeff Han (Perceptive pixel), and some of Microsoft Surface.

And you did it, impressive.

Now I have some questions:

1- How expensive is your setup?

2- What software or operative system are you using? Linux?, Vista? or Mac?

Thanks

[blaxwan]

Thanks a lot!

Actually I paid €25 for the plexiglas, €16 for the LEDs and €230 for the webcam with some different optics, but quite any webcam will work (saving a lot of money!). The projection surface sample was kindly offered by Peroni, the video projector was not mine :o). The OS was WinXP but I'll switch soon to Linux. You'll find all the answer you need to build one on NUIgroup site, of course check also my site!
