Hi All,
In the previous blog (blog1) i have explained about the over all idea and getting started guide with the sensor. In this blog i have implemented the music control over gesture.
My initial plan is to use DFmini player to play the mp3 file but ...
Hello Element14 community.
I welcome you to my blog with number 10. In previous nine blogs I described my path to completing my first gesture controlled game as part of Experimenting with Gesture Sensor Design Challenge. My final Gesture controlled ...
Hello everyone!
As I said in the previous blog, a great opportunity arose for me (and I think for the other roadtesters as well) to interact with an innovative, expensive technology. Until now, I myself have known devices that have buttons, then came...
