iPinchMe and HandVU

I’ve decided to stop experimenting and just use some mature open source code. Instead of using my own homebrew hand tracking code, the next version of iPinchMe will use HandVU. Results seem to be promising. Hopefully, I will find some time these days to release the new version. As HandVU is GPL-licensed, the next version of iPinchMe will be released together with all of its source code under a GPL license.

    Hi, :)

    Just installed it and tested now… Small question…

    It works only with the Isight built in camera or can I use a alternative usb one?

    Thanks

    iPinchMe is currently hardcoded to select the first available video device, which is by default the iSight. One of the next versions will hopefully include a feature that will allow users to select their input device of choice… In principle it should work with any USB webcam that is Mac compatible.
