Our app works locally on your pc/mac so no webcam images ever leave your computer.

Thank you sir!

Will add support for more apps very soon! Thx!

Thank you!

No issues. Thx for it feedback.

Who know what will be there in 5 years? We just want solve for hardware that is already ubiquitous. If better cameras become widespread then we will switch to that hardware.

Yes, doing this on webcam is incredibly difficult but if we can do it then it can really improve HCI. We just thought its worth trying.

Thanks. Appreciate your candid feedback.

Thanks.

Thx man. No issues. My redskins are sucking as usual, so understand it. :-)

Jey. Please let us know config of your system & version of flutter u are using. Thanks for the feedback.

Thank you.

Thanks so much. We think it addresses that issue. Try it and let us know.

You can download mac version through flutterapp.com/next

Yup, understand. We will add it in our next site update.

yes, we agree. That's Apple Hard-Wired. We don't think it can be turned-off. Let us know if someone has found a hack to turn it off while camera is on.

Thanks for your feedback.

Hi, on Mac, you can do Thumbs Right to go to Next Song, and Thumbs Left to go to previous song.

On Windows, these will be released in a week.

Sorry, Windows version with Next & Previous song gesture will come out in a week. Stay tuned! Thx for your patience!

Thank you. Good to know.

Thanks, we will look into it for sure. We just feel that we need to add more functionality first.

Hmm... looking into your crash log. Will get back ASAP.

It should work with latest version of VLC - some old versions do not have script bridge support so we cannot support it. Are you having issues with Next & Previous on the latest version of VLC?

Ok, thanks for letting us know! Are you still seeing false detections on the new version?

Would you please try it with new version?

This is one of those things where we will keep getting closer to 100% as we improve... working hard everyday to improve it!

Do you have a 3ivx or Parian on your machine? Sometimes that does crash our app. If you do then, please upgrade 3ivx to latest version and it fixes the problem.

Looking into crash report!

Thx Joe - Volume gestures in the works. Once we make it even more efficient we will use full resolution in web cameras and make it work from 12 feet away! Thx again!

Great pointer Twog. Appreciate your support - thank you!

Thx for your kind feedback. Pls make sure your hand is 1-6 feet away and it should work. Even our tests it works fairly well in diff lighting but I am sure you guys will let us know.

On avg it uses about 5% of CPU - 20-30%% when doing gestures and 2-3% when not.

With all due respect, the cool hack now has 4.5M+ gestures used to Play/Pause songs and 100s of thousands of users... so perhaps we may be on right track.

Thanks for appreciate the hard work of fellow developers!

Crap - sorry, will fix ASAP.

Flutter (YC W12, A16z, NEA funded) is looking for folks interested in innovating, designing, and solving some tough problems.

We recognize gestures over the webcam, and our first app Flutter has been very well-received - check it out on Mac App Store.

We are looking for folks interested in computer vision, machine vision, using JavaScript to integrate gestures into browsers both computers and tablets.

Pardon me for a shameless plug here, but I had jump in as this is an interesting discussion where we have at Flutter have long thought about it. We came up with a simple gesture to play/pause a song (itunes/spotify) by asking thousands of humans what gesture they would use if they did not have mouse/keyboard/voice. Almost everyone came up with the one we picked... even for next set of gesture, we're looking at static human gestures that are micro and intuitive (and doesn't make you fatigued).

When we released the first app, we got countless emails asking for hand-swipe as a next song gesture. We had felt a long ago that even though it seems natural it is completely impractical in certain context (i.e. coffee shop) and doing hand swipe 20 times starts to wear you down. It was important to try this number of times as same gesture can because to go to next slide or next photo or next album.

Hence, we ended-up picking thumbs-right and thumbs-left as metaphor: flutterapp.com/next

We will also hit our 4th Million gesture this month. That's 4 million times someone has either played or paused a song.

Please try our app and send feedback - would love to get your thoughts on this!

This is one of the best thoughtful discussion I've seen on this subject! thanks all for stimulating thoughts. I just thought I had something to share...

Considering all the security issues these days, this is just awesome. Democratization of 2-factor security is really needed. Congrats to Daniel and team!
