iOS and Kinect Support!
January 30th, 2012, by PhilOver the last several months, I’ve been working on providing support for the iOS platform and the Kinect Sensor. This support is now available in as a set of experimental widgets, release 3.3.2.
iOS
If you are set up as an Apple Developer, you can now create an application that works with the toolkit and runs on an iOS device such as an iPad or iPhone. This is possible because Flash Pro 5.5 can export a native App for iOS. The way it works is by attaching the microcontroller such as an Arduino to a computer and running the Hub on that computer. The application running on the iOS device assesses the Hub via WiFi (just set the remoteHubIP to the IP of the computer running the Hub). Everything else works as usual with the Toolkit. Additional features have been added to work with mobile devices including support for accelerometers and the position of a movieClip that’s being dragged around by touch.
Currently the only documentation for how to use the iOS support is on the downloads page.
Kinect
The Kinect is a very powerful sensor that can detect the three dimensional position of 15 joints of a person’s body. In this way, the movement of a hand or foot can be used to control media or other systems in the NETLab Toolkit. With some additional software such as Synapse, the Kinect can be easily used with the NETLab Toolkit. Single values for any joint (e.g. the X position of the left hand) can be accessed without any code using an AnalogIn widget. If your application requires accessing all 15 joints at the same time with x,y,z value, there’s a code interface to get all the values at once from a single AnalogIn widget.
More info and a example Flash file are available in the Kinect Tutorial.
i have connected 4 digital input and 6 digital output and two analog input with netla environment and everything is workin properly but after few moment does not able to communicate properly , so please tell me what ‘s the problem
I would need more information. But we’re about to release a new version of the toolkit, and that does have some fixes in it for multiple DigitalIns. It should be out within the next week. Check back on the downloads page.
