Show HN: the technology and the game I am working on for months
It is not finished yet (obviously). We are still working on new feature, bug fixes and more browser support.
The motion control API for now only works on Firefox/Windows and Firefox/Mac (of course you can copy the bundle to /Library/Internet Plugins/ so that it also works on Google Chrome/Mac). It will initiate another process to do hand detection, don't panic if you see another process called amcex in your activity monitor.
What it does? Visit http://api.alii.tv/console.html get some initial feelings. Put you hand in front of your webcam (0.5 ~ 1.5 meters is perfect), making the palm facing the webcam, you should see the blue/red dot moves with your hands. You can get readings by binding callback in the javascript, and that is it.
http://api.alii.tv/showcase/asteroid.html is a little game that utilize the API. http://pprevolution.com/ is a heavier one (Facebook Game with Flash).
Any feedback is welcome. You can drop emails to me, too: liu@alii.tv
