Limited Gesture Detection #2

Open Askjeeves774 opened 10 years ago

Askjeeves774 commented 10 years ago

The software is very interesting and works, but the only gestures the software is able to detect easily is the fist, open hand, and some fingers. However, most finger gestures default to either the one or two finger (peace sign) gestures, unable to properly distinguish more than that, it seems. Most gestures are translated as a fist. The five finger start gesture works somewhat well, though, only a bit unreliable. I have yet to figure out how to get any of the other gestures recognized, because the detection is unable to do so yet. Hoping this can be fixed in soon future :)

Almost everything is detected as a fist, by the way...

Currently, only the four gestures you mentioned are supported: fist, one finger, two fingers, open hand. More gesture support will come in time!

Oh, sorry about that, then! The programmed gestures all work, but detection and differentiation between them, especially the ones involving the fingers, need some work. Keep up the great work! Expecting great things from the team, and can't wait to try out Haptix!
