wayV is...
----------
1. Experiment with human computer interaction, especially
gesture based computing.
2. Initially some software that does hand writing/gesture
recognition. Shapes represent actions and are inputed via
the mouse, i.e. draw a B and the "b" key press is sent to
your Xterm, draw a C and xcalc starts, draw an N and
Netscape starts, etc.
How to use
----------
See INSTALL for information on how to compile wayV.
When wayV is running hold down the activation buttons. Draw
shapes (make gestures by moving the mouse), and when you're
finished making a gesture release the activation button.
wayV then tries to match a gesture with an action, e.g.
hold down mouse button 1, wait till a white border appears
around your screen, draw a C with the mouse, release mouse
button 1 and Xcalc should start if its on your computer and
in your path.
Various notes
-------------
Read "doc/HOWTO-wayv-config" to understand how to configure
wayV, and have a look at "doc/trained-gestures.jpg" to see
what default gestures wayV is setup for.
When you're using wayV with user feedback on (this is the
default) you MUST wait till a white border appears around
your screen BEFORE attempting to drawn a gesture. The
appearance of the white border tells you wayV is ready for
gesture capture and processing.
For those who are interested wayV uses a form of template
matching for its gesture recognition.
