Once the new version is released later this month I’ll do a post outlining how to set up a basic multitouch application in Flex.

In the meantime, here’s a list of multitouch resources!

Hardware Types:

Software:

  • tbeta

    tbeta is the program that bridges your hardware with Flex. It handles blob detection using the IR camera in your hardware setup and dispatches touch events that you’ll use to create interactions within your Flex app.

  • TouchLib

    TouchLib contains various AS3 classes and demos that will be used in your applications.

  • SimTouch

    SimTouch is a touch simulator. Simulators come in handy when you want to develop multitouch applications but don’t have access to the hardware.

Misc

The response: “DO IT!”. So I did, Ta Da! The idea is to cover topics that help others get started and spark constructive conversation.

I’m planning to cover topics like Getting Started and Designing for Touch & Multiple Orientations. If there’s a specific topic you’d like to see covered, let me hear it!
