I personally know Lahiru and I have seen the effort he has put into develop this prototype. I am 200% sure that it is his own idea and creation. This is just one of his amazing collection of works. So please just appreciate what you see instead of trying to find bulls.

You know, If this went open source, it would probably get really clean, really fast. Not to mention be better, have more options ect…
Just an idea. – Yav

Hi Mitchel Reugt,

Thanks for the comment!

I need to clean-up the code base before publishing it as a opensource project. it’s my own research and the code is kinda messy. :)

Anyway since the higher demand. I’ll publish it this month. And please notice that I have nothing to be afraid of. :P

Thanks!

This is bullshit, copied from MS Research! many users have request the software for try this but no answer, This is called “Open source” right? why are you afraid if you don’t have anything to hide?

Can I use my webcam and my normal LCD screen with this kind of software ? if I can then where I can download this software ?

Out of curiosity, and I know I am late, would it be possible to have the software calculate a “touch” by watching how much the hand diffuses? Because the ambient light turns the hand into a “blob” to the camera and removes a lot of detail, would it not be possible for it to see the thinning hand/finger/other pointing object and asses when it has made contact with the screen?

i can see some interesting applications for this.. for instance, mounting a small webcam, like the ones that are installed in most laptops, on the bezel by the touchpad. adjusting the angle via software wouldn’t be too bad, just more precise control. this would make for a more portable approach and put us budget hampered folks a step closer to turning our ancient laptops into multitouch ones :)

@Jordan:

Yeah, that’s possible. But I’m trying to allow more natural interactions… using bare hands. :D
