Not Dead, Just out of range... MouseTrap is still alive

Submitted by flaper87 on Mon, 09/22/2008 - 09:05.

In the last 2 weeks I've been kind of out of range for everyone... I started working for a company ( Unfortunately not a a11y work ) and I haven't had time to get on-line, but it doesn't mean I haven't worked on my real passion (A11y) even if I haven't dedicated the time I would like. Anyway, I wanted to give some updates about mousetrap and what I've been doing for it.

In the last 2 weeks I've been re-factoring ( Unfortunately just in the nights and weekends ) some of the mousetrap's modules.

In the Events Module:

The active ticket is: http://mousetrap.flaper87.org/trac/ticket/15

The ticked is based on the creation of a new events handler for mousetrap changing the old conditional method for an asynchronous functions based one that will handle the different mousetrap's states.

In the settings module:

The active ticket is: http://mousetrap.flaper87.org/trac/ticket/14

The ticket suggests the change of the current settings handler for the internal python settings handler . The python internal settings manager reads a simple script with a known format and make it easy to load, reload and save settings

In the Cam module:

The active ticket is: http://mousetrap.flaper87.org/trac/ticket/5

The idea is to create a security system for the cam module that will keep the track of what's happening in this module, and give fallback support if anything goes wrong.

Hopefully all this will be ready for the release of version 0.4 ( 30/09/2008 ).

Well, These are the last news I hope you all like them and if any of you wants to help just mail me. XD

First of all your program

First of all your program seems to be very impressive!
The youtube videos are looking very promissing.

It would be really cool to work on the PC just by moving the head and soon maybe even by moving only the eyes. This would be really cool and I think it will be the future of interacting with the PC.

I checked out the latest version from svn and compiled it. Evrything works fine.
Except of that my tvcard is numberd as /dev/video0 and my webcam as /dev/video1.

Is there any way to change the configuration to use /dev/video1 as input for your app?

I'm looking forward to get your programm runing completely very soon.

I hope you can help me.

Best regards
JoeD

@JoeD

First of all, thanks a lot for your comment and feedback.

You're right, It would be nice to access the computer just using the head and why not? The eyes.

The a11y technology at the end always makes simpler other user's life.

About the device: It is possible to select the input device using the settings, In the camera Tab there's a spin button called Input device index, just select the number of your input device, in your case it is 1.

Lte me know the results.

Thanks Again.
