Toysight is the ultimate set of cool games and toys to play using your iSight. Using a system of object and motion detection to track your position, Toysight allows you to control buttons, sliders and perform gestures on the screen, putting you right in the action!
Play it at home, play it with friends, ToySight is a blast!This demo contains one complete game (FreeFall), one toy (the Laser Harp), and the tutorial.
What's New:
NTSC Television Compatibility. If you are playing ToySight on a television, through a video out on your Mac, you may have noticed that ToySight's video mode runs in PAL mode. If you run the ToySight (NTSC) version of the app, it will run in NTSC mode, which is the normal mode for US Televisions.
Support for multiple video inputs. Some users found a problem that if they had TV cards installed on their Macs, this alternate video input was chosen by ToySight instead of their FireWire camera. If you hold down the Shift key when you start up ToySight, it will launch a video setup dialog so that you can select what video source you want to use. It also has the side benefit that you can play about with your camera's settings, such as focus, brightness etc.
Startup video mode fixed for 'odd' screen sizes. Previously ToySight may have had problems when first run if your Mac's screen didn't support 800x600 screen resolution. This version will find the next best mode available if 800x600 isn't available on the first attempt. (You can of course change the video resolution that ToySight uses in the Options/Graphics menu in ToySight).
Other bug fixes.
