And it is definetly an upgrade in the right direction. It's been a while since tBeta was upgraded, at least since I started working with multi-touch back in October or so. But I heard in the forum that tBeta has been upgraded to tBeta to Community Core Vision (CCV). And I couldn't not wait to get home from work and try it out.
First impression. Great. Everything looked the same, excellent. But what's this? New/more options to work with. Most notibly (most for me for sure) "TUIO direct to Flash sending through TCP." No more needing FLOSC to communicate between CCV and Flash. Don't get me wrong, FLOSC is Awesome and meant that Flash could understand the data coming from tBeta and touchlib. I couldn't have learned what I have thus far without it, but one less program running and even just that little bit of processing power going to Flash? Sweet!
And the controls are even more powerful. Better control over fine tuning the level controls. And adjustable "learning" of the dynamic background subtraction will the coming in handy for me soon enough.
I think daft punk said it best:
Work It Harder Make It Better
Do It Faster Makes Us stronger
More Than Ever Hour After
Our Work Is Never Over
Well, I've been listening to that track for days now. I seem to do that when it comes to music. Listen to one song over and over and over. Just another quirk I suppose.
So CCV, you want it? Find it here. I think I have a new favorite open source computer vision program.
Happy Experimenting.
