having problems with the plugin. I can start it and a video source appears (curiously it appears only if i select the USB option - but i am using a fire-i camera???). If i press “g” the calculation seems to start, but it never ends. I should see 10 steps, but it does not finishes even the first. I am using this settings in the .bat file:

touchlib_barreldistortion_tool.exe -w 6 -h 8 -s 2 -n 10 -b 20

I have attached an image how that looks…

Can one of you please give a helping hand?

Tank you in advance!

I’ve been promising to release this software for a very long time, but I’ve been slacking off, so here it is:

http://www.risenparadigm.com/multimouse

***************************************************************************
FEATURE LIST AND USAGE:
***************************************************************************
One Finger:

-Left-click: tap finger. 
-Move cursor: hold and move the finger.

Two Fingers:

-Left-click: place first finger as cursor and tap second finger to the left of it. 
-Right-click: place first finger as cursor and tap second finger to the right of it. 
-Drag-and-drop: place first finger as cursor, press and hold second finger to the left of it, move around, and release second finger to drop.

Three Fingers:

-Scrolling: move up to scroll up and down to scroll down. 
-Alt-tabbing: move left to ‘alt-tab’ left, and right to ‘alt-tab’ right.

***************************************************************************

I would really appreciate some suggestions/feedback. I have only tried it on a few setups so it’s bound to have some hiccups.

I’ll post the source code soon for those who are interested. I’m leaving for Japan in two days and things are a bit hectic right now, but I will get to it as soon as possible.

Thanks,

The problems :
-Many libs and headers files
-Hard configuration
-No integration

Target
Wizard for VS 9
Simple lib and headers path for easy integration.
Both configuration ogre and opencv

Well go ahead....

first problem : typedef unsigned char uchar twice declaration in ogreprerequisites.h and cxtypes.h mmm…
link headers and libs problems i suppose.

I coming soon with my advances, any suggestion welcome.

I can compile touchlib successfully and have everything included, oscpack fftw. It compiles with no errors other than a few errors when converting floats and doubles to ints, and vice versa. However when I try and run ./src/configapp I get no visuals to give feedback from touchlib. My camera does initialize I assume since the camera has a light that turns on when it is in use, and the light turns on when I start touchlib. Also, my camera works when I capture from vlc or directly with ffmpeg, however it does not work when I try and use xawtv. I am using the UVCvideo module to run the camera.

I vaguely remember reading that the video output from cameras in Linux was disabled in order to prevent crashes caused by OSC. Is this correct? If so what code would I need to modify in order to allow output?

The error list looks like this:

...blah blah blah....

it’s all in atlconv.h file, which is unmodified after I downloaded it as part of the Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003, R2. Why are there so many syntax errors in this file?

Thanks!

EDIT:
- I’ve gone through the forum, and done everything else already
- This error only occurs when I want to build configapp. Otherwise everything is great.
CORRECTION:
- the error actually occurs when I try to build demo_smoke. configapp is fine.

This doesn’t really have to do with TouchLib, but it does have to do with multitouch. I’m trying to use parts of Multi-Touch Vista (can be found on CodePlex) to create multitouch programmes in Visual C#, but I cannot figure out how to compile the files using Pipeline Builder.

Any help? Message me if you need more info.

or any easy way to allow 3D animation with touchlib? I heard Adobe is working on flash that will allow smooth 3D animation, anyone know where I can find some tutorial on that?

thanks in advance.

It works very well.

However the project I’m working on requires another filter to be written from scratch to perform the Radon Transform of a pre filtered video source to help detect fingers and a peak detection algorithm to detect finger tips. In order to integrate a new filter into touchlib what do I have to add to the source file of my custom filter and what other source files do I need to modify?
