My 30″ Home-Made Multi-Touch Screen

admin — Mon, 26 Apr 2010 00:08:06 +0000

Made using PS3 eye webcam with IR blocking filter removed and a new filter that only allows 850nm IR light through. The projector is an Optoma EX525ST DLP Short Throw Projector and is mounted on a custom black acrylic stand made by my co-worker Casey at SparkFun. I’m also using the LLP method using two 850nm lasers and beam splitters to create a horizontal line just barely above the projection surface. The lasers are powered by some cables I made and are connected to SparkFun’s USB Breadboard Power Supply. The surface is clear 1/4″ acrylic with a large vellum sheet taped to the underside. The software used is Community Core Vision and Processing running Memo’s MSAFluid TUIO test slightly modified to allow for smoother TUIO inputs. Obviously this is an early video and a lot of calibration is required. Also the video is choppy and the multi-touch is less responsive than normal since I was running both webcams off my laptop along with dual monitors. I’ll record a better version soon once I have the rest of the case created.

commands used:

LIRC (Linux Infrared remote control) is an open source package that allows users to receive and send infrared signals with a Linux-based computer system.

There is a Microsoft Windows equivalent of LIRC called WinLIRC.

With LIRC and an IR receiver the user can control their computer with almost any infrared remote control (e.g. a TV remote control). The user may for instance control DVD or music playback with their remote control.

One GUI frontend is KDELirc, built on the KDE libraries.

IR Glove and “Wii-mote” Demonstration

admin — Sat, 20 Mar 2010 21:24:07 +0000

Hey there, this is a project that we’ve been working on for a few days as part of the Wiimote Project (which you can find by simply Googling it, there is a ton of great information and work being posted). We’ve constructed two infrared LED devices paired with a Nindendo Wii controller, or Wiimote, and a PC with a bluetooth USB dongle. Both devices are simple circuits containing a battery, an LED, resistors, wires, and solder. The first one that we built was the “Wiimote Wiimote,” which is an LED in the form factor of a wiimote-shaped candy dispenser. The second device was built into a glove that uses the fingertips to close the circuit. Also, we should offer a quick apology for being incapable of naming fingers correctly. XDDD

Additionally, we’d like to thank Johnny Lee, Boonjin, and Google (Earth).

IR Transceiver Demo

admin — Fri, 12 Mar 2010 01:17:10 +0000

I custom made an IRDA compatible transceiver complete with encoding/decoding.

I’m demonstrating it using my custom Axon microcontroller, and using Bluetooth to upload data to my PC.
