The 15.4" inch seems to be available in january and > 30" will follow.
Does touch allow multi-cursor input already? Would a wrapper application which sends t-script commands via tcp work?
The wii-mote has a little camera in the end that tracks the so-called ‘sensor bar’ that sits on top of your screen when wii-ing normally.
Johnny’s idea is to make some IR LED pens and, by pointing the wii-mote at the screen, it will transmit the screen coordinates of up to 4 moving points to make the cheapest multitouch rig out there.
This may have finally convinced me to bo out and buy a Wii remote!
To work with that device, it would have to accept to ts VGA or DVI-I input a video signal from TouchDesigner, say on Designer’s second monitor, connected to say the second monitor out of the graphics card.
A TouchDesigner control panel would occupy the full second monitor screen area.
Then the (finger #, U and V, up/down) messages coming from the API would be translated to tscript “click” and/or “controlpanel -s” commands, that would simply be run in tscript.
So we’ll work with you first lucky person that gets one of these babies.
How would this work? If I run “click /controlpanel 0.4 0.3” it sets the controlpanel’s top container’s u and v values, but the simulated mouse click is not passed through to any of the buttons/slider making up the actual controlpanel (with panelclickthrough = on)
the second link doesn’t work though.
