Total Cost: 30€ aprox. (Without the need of a cam).

CyNotes: Although the multitouch tracking through CCV was working really smooth and the blob recognition was almost excellent, i have faced some problems on the FLOSC Demo. This could be because of the use of TUIO TCP Flash msgs instead of TUIO OSC. I ll work on it. Next step is to use TUIO OSC send to SC before i seek for any other reason that might cause the problems. Further development is required.
