[sdiy] Poly finger touch controler, Lemur by jazz mutants!

[Jeff Farr]

That thing looks cool as hell tho... Until you see the price tag.. I really
think It needs to have on board DSP capability to justify that kind of
expense. I've been interested in creating a very similar graphical control
toolset based on a touchscreen for sometime now, and the total price of
hardware doesn't top 500$ (admittedly the Lemur is much slicker than what
I've spec'd) and the software end is only complicated in terms of getting
the nice neon graphics. A+ for concept, C- for implementation
