Touch support through TUIO?

Development Programming & Scripting Blueprint

Hey all

Does anyone here know if the engine supports TUIO? If not, will it ever?

I have an “old” SUR40 standing around doing nothing, and I have a few ideas I’d like to try out with the engine. It can translate the pixelsense info to regular Windows cursors, but it’s jittery as hell. I merged 2 different techs to make a PixelSense -> TUIO translator ages ago, and it’s smooth as butter. If possible, I’d like to use that for my projects.

Hi eisoe,

TUIO isn’t supported natively by the engine right now, and isn’t likely to be any time soon. However, if you want to grab the GitHub version, I can point you in the general direction of where you’d inject the touch events into the engine so that they get propagated and treated like a first class input device to the rest of the engine.

Cheers,
