Today I posted a new interview on Channel 9 on using the Touchless SDK.

The Touchless SDK enables developers to create multi-touch based applications using a webcam for input. “Touch without touching.” It’s actually pretty cool! In this interview I meet up with Touchless SDK creator, Mike Wasserman and Visual Basic Spec Lead, Lucian Wischik. They explain the project and show off a game they developed using Visual Basic 9 in Visual Studio 2008. I almost got my block knocked off playing the game but you’ll see how it was worth it 😉
