Touchlib svn updates
I added a new class meant to replace the old RotatableScalable. It inherits from Multitouchable. The new class is called Physical and it provides more realistic behavior for dragging / rotation / scaling. I updated the Photo app with this class and overall I think it's less glitchy and more interesting to interact with. It's more like if you were manipulating a real piece of paper. Extending Physical and Multitouchable should make it easy to write your own widgets and applications and allow easy access to the multitouch information and basic gestures.

Hey david,
I have been developing a multi-touch interface with my friend for a little while now and just wanted to see what you were using as your infrared source / diffuser. Currently, we are using Reactivision, and custom max/msp/jitter/reaktor software for our table. We built 2 IR LED arrays totaling 200 LED's that go along 2 sides of our screen. You can check out our project at bricktable.wordpress.com
From reading your posts, it seems you have pretty decent fiducial and finger tracking going on, and we are looking to improve in both of those areas, so I just wanted to know if you had any suggestions. I think one of our issues is not diffusing the infrared enough.
Please let me know if you have any ideas. Your table looks great! Keep up the good work, and we look forward to hearing from you. Thanks a lot.
Hi jordan,
I'm using a piece of Mylar architecht paper at the moment. Seems to work pretty well and makes a nice projection surface. I can't really give too much advice on fiducials since I only have a little experience with them and my table isn't doing anything with them at the moment.
Hi David,
I was wondering if you could post to your blog a mention of this little NASA WorldWind/touchlib plugin I put together. The plugin listens for TUIO events and recognizes basic gestures to drag, rotate, and zoom in WorldWind. The code is very rudimentary but I thought it might be helpful to any others interested in the same thing. I bet your blog has a decent audience of multitouchers.
