This project allows users to communicate with their Messenger buddies in an expressive way. Users can select to send predefined messages to specific buddies simply by tapping on the table. Different sound pattern (sound intensity level, number of taps) determines who is the recipient and what will be the message.
System description
The system is composed out of a simple web cam that detects the sound, flash application that analyses the sound and determines which message to send and a windows macro tool (AutoHotkey) that receives the flash commands and triggers the right sequence (i.e. opening the messenger application, selecting the buddy, opening the conversation window, entering the right message and sending it).
