These are the demo's that were given at the launch presentation of the Pooky-project, realized in collaboration with UGent and IBBT.
Project website: http://pooky.sourceforge.net/

The Pooky project delivered alpha versions of two separate Mozilla Firefox extensions. Both of which are demonstrated in this video.

In short:
PookyTouch enables the use of Multi-Touch events in HTML (or XUL) pages in Mozilla Firefox. PookyTooth enables the use of bluetooth in webpages.

For more information, downloads and some hands-on Multi-Touch experience, please view our website at http://pooky.sourceforge.net/

  • This was great work, but the project seems very quiet now. Is it still being developed...?

  • The only requirement is that Java 1.5.12 must be installed. So yes, it'll work on every OS, not just Windows only.

  • Indrukwekkend.

    Zal me toch eens zo een touchscreen moeten aanschaffen om dit uit te testen.

  • Yay another bloat added to firefox :p

    lol no jk, it's a cool feature but I would've preferred to see this improving the things one regularly does on firefox (obviously excluding pr0n).

    Also, a further improvement idea could be to implement the Wii sensobars and do multitouch goodyness on a huge beamer screen!!

    see user jcl5m if you haven't already :)

    keep developing!

  • Werkt het ook op alle platformen of is het een WIndows-only add-on (of een ander OS)?

  • Because it is a Mozilla Firefox Extension that makes everything you see work. The fact it works inside a web browser (Firefox), thus enabling the use of Multi-Touch in web pages, is what makes our project unique, and because it is based on a Firefox Extention, it only works inside Firefox...

  • Firefox is running in full screen (F11) mode.

  • Gents, excellent work. Looking forward to BizIdee phase II.

  • how do you do that?
