View topic - DIY multitouch plans & libs ! Regarding Microsoft's 'Surface', it's exciting but ... Quote: With a 30-inch screen, Surface will initially sell for between $5,000 and $10,000 (£2,525-£5,050). That's a bit expensive for me. I'm sure the price will drop in a few years at which point I will be (literally) all over it. The DIY option would be cheaper, the things you need are 1: a projector 2: a computer 3: a camera with a WDM driver 4: some infra red lighting (so it's out of the spectral range of the lightshow) 5: the table Tutoriel : Mixer avec Reactivision Introduction Les tables de mixage et autres surface de contrôle coûtent cher. Sans prétendre à une qualité digne d'un studio, Reactivision permet de se construire un périphérique MIDI intéressant pour peu de frais : du carton, des pots de yaourts et une webcam.

Pure Data Since we'll be using Pure Data to create sound, and since Pd treats sound as just another set of numbers, it might be useful to review how digital audio works. We will return to these concepts in the audio tutorial later on. A diagram showing how sound travels through your computer. The "Analog to Digital" & "Digital to Analog Conversion" is done by the soundcard. The "Digital System" in this case is Pure Data. The 10 Craziest Kinect Hacks Let's be honest: when it comes to serious gaming, Kinect has been a little bit of a let down so far, hasn't it? For all the occasional moments of magic when the motion-sensing technology properly works and you really are the controller, there's still far too many annoying, clumsy parts when it becomes clear that what you really need is an actual controller. That said, Kinect's capabilities are always evolving and you can bet that, when the next Xbox comes, we will be a further step closer towards the 'Minority Report' dream Microsoft promised us at such staggering expense. If Kinect has so far failed to excite hardcore gamers, though, it's had hardcore hackers stuttering with socially-awkward enthusiasm at the potential beyond Xbox. 18 months of tinkering by mad scientists reached its apotheosis this week with the news that Kinect is being sent into outer space to control satellites. Anyway, Kinventors: we salute you – and your barmiest creations. Kinect Guitar

How to Make Bi-Directional Flex Sensors Components: The materials needed for the construction of the bi-direction flex sensor is shown in figure 1 and listed below. The size of the materials listed is only a guideline to the sensor we are constructing in this article. These types of sensors can be manufactured to larger widths and lengths. Implementations TUIO hardware support In order to support the further development of the TUIO platform, we are looking for hardware donations of various hardware: iOS and Android tablets, Touchscreen hardware, Windows 7 Multitouch Notebooks, Netbooks and Tablets, MS Surface, Samsung SUR40, Magic Trackpad or any other devices to evaluate their existing or potential TUIO support. Please get in touch with martin_at_tuio_dot_org for further information! TUIO Tracker Implementations TUIO Server Reference Implementations C++: TUIO_CPP.zip (source, all platforms)

Lectures de bouches fr Lecture(s) de bouche(s) : une vidéo-performance. La vidéo-performance, se compose d’un STUDIO DIOPTIQUE et d’une TABLE A ENCRES, véritables outils-acteurs, objets artistiques autonomes, à la fois archaïques et technologiques, qui ordonnent le faisceau de questionnements et d’expériences autour du statut et de la production d’images. La TABLE A ENCRES forme des images et le STUDIO DIOPTRIQUE les fragmente. C'est la main qui pilote, ordonne ou désorganise le flux d'images avec ces deux objets. Avec Lecture(s) de bouche(s), nous sommes partis du geste artistique de Ghérasim Luca, les Cubomanies, pour construire les images de Lecture(s) de Bouche(s). Programming Electronic Music in Pd Abstract Pd was initiated by American software engineer Miller Puckette, who previous co-developed the well known and similarly structured software Max/Msp. Pd is not commercial software; i.e., it was not developed by a corporation and is not for sale. Instead, it is “open source”: its source code is not the (patented) property of a corporation, but is rather freely available to all.

This table is the property of the department for Design, Computer Science and Media (DCSM) of the Wiesbaden University of Applied Sciences, which provided me with the money for the components of the Virttable. (Actually, we had student fees for a short time in Hessen/Germany. From a part of these student fees the Virttable has been built. Thank you, dear students!!! There’s no cent of public money in the Virttable.)

Puredata Pure Data (souvent abrégé Pd) est un logiciel de création multimédia interactive couramment utilisé dans les domaines artistique, scientifique et pédagogique. Sa popularité réside notamment dans sa facilité d'utilisation. Plutôt qu'un langage de programmation textuel, Pure Data propose un environnement de programmation graphique dans laquelle l'utilisateur est invité à manipuler des icônes représentant des fonctionnalités et à les brancher ensemble. Un logiciel de création multimédia interactive Pure Data est utilisé dans tous les champs de la création (musique, arts visuels, danse, théâtre, robotique, etc.) pour des performances visuelles et sonores ou la création d'installations interactives, participatives et génératives. Il possède des capacités particulières dans les domaines de la musique acoustique et de la musique audio-numérique : il sert à modéliser des instruments électroniques comme les synthétiseurs.

Raspberry Pi Magic Mirror Here’s a somewhat creepy mirror with a disembodied (French) voice, which recognises the person looking into it and responds accordingly. This lovely hack from Pierre Raufast is the sort of OpenCV application that we hope to see much more of when the camera board goes up for sale (and the Pi camera would be a great solution here, with a much higher framerate). Snow White’s Mum has nothing on Pierre. FTIR Multitouch and Display Device - Experiments with Processing, OSC - Thomas M. Brand materials: - arylic plate, size that is ok for you. make it comaptible to the screensize you will use, so 4:3, 16:9 or so. i took a 640 * 480 * 10 mm plate. be careful when reading the specs on the box of cameras standing on the shelf. for instance 30 fps does not mean automatically that this framerate is available in max resolution. some cameras even seem to duplicate frames to have bigger framerates (??). -optional alternative lens to the one that is normally deliverd along with the camera. take one with a suited focal lenght and F-number for target setup. [Focal Length and Aperture Explained for the Photography Novice] normally optional lenses are sold at the same place as the camera but there are a lot of e-bayers selling different styles of them.
