Tired of scrolling down endlessly on Facebook, Twitter or Tumblr? Dreaming about giving your hands a rest from all the coding with some social network nonsense indulgement?
Cutting edge tech for your lazy needs. Using artificial vision with openCV through camera and basic gesture interaction you will be able to scroll through your favourite site in a classic lazy fashion. Just by looking at the screen! Come on, you are doing it already, am I right?
Firing it up on Facebook
It works on twitter
And you can get your tumblr dose as well
Pretty much any web site (or regular documents) with infinite (or tedious) scrolling.
Processing powered. Seasoned with JAVA, spiced up with OpenCV and JAVA robot libraries.
If you can't get the (future) standalone app, here is the workaround. Download Processing (it works with Processing 3 and 2) and add OpenCV library. Plug your web cam, run the sketch and get some popcorn.
Stop and scrolling up included in the first release by lifting right or left hand. To resume your scrolling just "push" gesture in the bottom middle area.
Have fun and lazy scrolling!
