HandWave: Android library lets you scroll through text without touching screen
- tesster1233114 12y agoInteresting. Does anyone know if the HandWave library uses OpenCV?
- tikka 12y agoYeah it looks like the does - the main library is on github as well.
- lnanek2 12y agoLooks like a free version of ARI: https://www.otgplatforms.com/ https://www.otgplatforms.com/
- jhgg 12y agoWhat's the license on this? Couldn't find it in the main library repository.
- tikka 12y agoThe main repo is online here: https://github.com/kritts/HandWave https://github.com/kritts/HandWave
- jhgg 12y agoI know that! I mean... what's the code licensed under? I don't see any mention of a license in it!
- tikka 12y agoIt's freely distributed, there's no license.
- jonathanyc 12y agoIf there's no license, it is not 'freely distributed'. Copyright is automatic.[1] Under the Berne Convention, this implies all rights reserved.[2] I'm assuming you're the author. Good work, but please choose a license for your code so others can use your code as you see fit.

- tikka 12y agoThank you all for your feedback!! The readme has been updated. The library, HandWave, is under the MIT License.
- tzs 12y agoThat's generally not a good approach. As noted on the Github open source licensing page [1]: What happens if I don't choose a license? ----------------------------------------- You're under no obligation to choose a license. It's your right not to include one with your code or project, but please be aware of the implications. Generally speaking, the absence of a license means that the default copyright laws apply. This means that you retain all rights to your source code and that nobody else may reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works from your work. This might not be what you intend. Even if this is what you intend, if you publish your source code in a public repository on GitHub, you have accepted the Terms of Service which do allow other GitHub users some rights. Specifically, you allow others to view and fork your repository. If you want to share your work with others, we strongly encourage you to include an open source license. They have a site to make it easy for you to find a license that does what you want: http://choosealicense.com http://choosealicense.com There's a nice summary of several on this page: http://choosealicense.com/licenses/ http://choosealicense.com/licenses/ [1] https://help.github.com/articles/open-source-licensing https://help.github.com/articles/open-source-licensing
- wasyl 12y agoHowever I tried I wasn't able to import 25 gestures project to Android Studio. Has anyone succeeded?
- androidluver23 12y agoI was able to import it into Eclipse. I'll try Android Studio right now.
- tzs 12y agoI've wanted something similar, but based on motion sensor. I essentially want it to act as if the document is fixed in space, and I am looking at it through the phone.
- hayksaakian 12y agoIts an interesting concept, but usability wise is it actually an improvement? How tactile is the scrolling? Is it suitable for general web browsing?
- James10 12y agoHi ,The 25 gestures apps starts then immediately shut down. In their source code there is no mistakes . Has anyone succeeded to use it?
