kinect
I got the new Kinect sensor. Decided to share some of my experiments. I am using prime sense driver along with openNI middle-ware. I build a C# wrapper to get the hand x,y,z coordinates to flash. The wrapper also has the possibility of moving mouse cursor and creating mouse clicks in two ways:
– move “presses” hand in the kinect direction.
– when hands is held still.

Using the extract method of the Sound Class we can now do a realistic lip Sync of sounds coming from external files or even from the microphone. This demo uses Google translate text to speech service. This allows me to send a string with the text and replies with a mp3 with the readout of the specific text. The playback pitch, temo, and speed of the mp3 file can be set thrum the controls.

RollMenu
A menu I did for a a presentation proposal, uses tween Lite and can be customized. Inspired by the “else mobile phone“. Circular/elliptical menus are nice and should be used more often.
Speed Up compilation
Here are a few tips that can decerese the time flash takest to compile your projects.
1. Library itames the less the better ( try to make them load at runtime)
Images check the Use imported JPEG data box for JPEG and use
PNGs/GIFs as “Loosless PNG/GIF” for png.
Sounds – ADPCM/mono-to-stereo/5kHz/2bit
2. Fonts the less fonts embeded the better ( embed only the neccesary fonts)
3. Compiler settings Uncheck “Strict Mode” and “Warning Mode” + 30% in compile speed,
SWF Settings uncheck “Compress Movie”, “Include hidden layers”, “ Include MXP metadata”, and
“Export SWC”, Publish only flash swf format.
4. Code – if your using libraries compile them into SWC files (huge decrese in compile time);
5. Brak up your project into smaller swf files.
6. Use Bit101 MinimalComponents components
insted of flash/flex components.
UPDATE: For big projects it is best to compile the fla into a swc whenever you do library changes and use flash develop with the flex compiler for code compilation

For the past 2 weeks I am working on a touch screen project. This involves 8 full HD tv that are each covered by a touch screen. They will present different 1980*1080px animations presenting images/videos. The big question was ” Can Flash Player handle it?”

UPDATE !! flash player 10.1 NetStream has a new method appendBytes. Using this people can playback local FLV and MP4.
Inspired by “FriendsofED Object Oriented ActionScript” I created this lite weight (40.0 KB) to serve as a the default player for a e-learning project. It can play the following types of files : jpg, mp3, flv , mp4, ans swf. Read More

This is one of my failed experiments
The idea: A app that adjusts the beat of music to the movements. Could be use in jogging and other fiscal exercise.
