Me and some of my friends have made a gesture recognition application for android. It allows you to customize gestures that will call, text, or email one of your contacts or launch an application. Please check out our blog and demonstration video and comment to let us know what you think.

I had developed a simple gesture recognition library for Android (not for accelerometer; I mean touchscreen - finger gestures). I had to abandon it for quite a while, but recently I was able to clean it a bit and port it to 1.0 SDK. It is released under GPL. Here are some sample videos:

I am adding gesture recognition to my app. I have added the view as described in the Android Developers Gestures article but when it comes to adding:
CODEE:..........
where do I put this in my code, do I have to create a new class for it, or can I have it in an inner class, or does it not need a class at all?! I have a set up similar to Lunar Lander which comprises of two files, one of which is a thread that handles pretty much all the physics and drawing of the game. The other file begins the thread and saveInstanceState method. Furthermore, what type is mLibrary?! I cannot find out anywhere! I imagine I will put the OnGesturePerformed method in my thread as this is where I handle all keyUp and Down events.
I want to implement the same behavior of the notification view in the official Facebook app.
The "notifications" tab are at the bottom and can drag/drop via fingers to full screen. How can I do that? I've tried it via ViewFlipper and Animation. But no success. The app "Zedge" has the same in the "search" function. Via drag/drop you can open the "search" view.
I am a brand new developer to Android. I wrote a pretty simple application that uses the gesture library. The application itself seems to run fine in the simulator. However, when I installed the application on my Google Dev Phone 1 (G1) last night, it doesn't seem to work. I've upgraded my G1 with the 1.6 image from the htc developer site. I see the first screen/activity for about a second and the application exits without and errors. Here is what my manifest looks like:
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.blahblah" android:debuggable="true"
android:versionCode="1"
android:versionName="1.0">

<activity android:name="Gesture2Activity"
android:label="@string/label_gesture_list" />
<activity android:name="Gesture3Activity"
android:label="@string/label_create_gesture" />
</application>
</manifest>
Here's the output for logcat:

The App I'm trying to work on requires that when a special combination of keys are pressed ( irrespective of the keypad being locked ) a service / app is triggered.
How can I achieve this? My app's whole idea hinges on this particular part to work.
I am not here to take a "no" for an answer. If you are going to tell me that its not possible, atleast include an explanation as to why its not possible.
Reading through this group about speech recognition in android. Is it possible for me as a developer to create an application that uses speech recognition in the 1.5 SDK. I want to be able to base my code on the examples/api/voicerecognition.java code.
View 15 Replies View RelatedHow to I properly parameterize the speech recognizer so that it can more easily recognize the words that the user will probably say?
As far as I can tell there is no way.
I believe this site is wrong: http://www.4feets.com/2009/04/speech-recognition-in-android-sdk-15/
CODE:............
Will give a hint to the recognizer that you might say those words. However, it appears to do absolutely nothing. It also conflicts with the google documentation which says:
"An ArrayList of the potential results when performing ACTION_RECOGNIZE_SPEECH. Only present when RESULT_OK is returned." This hints that the array is a return value NOT an input.
To test this out try adding: ArrayList< String > potentialResults = new ArrayList< String >(); potentialResults.add("cumin"); and try to get the speech recognizer to recognize it. You will find it very difficult.
How to properly control the speech recognizer?
I would like to know what is meant by gestures in typical mobiles more specifically android ones. Android supports gesture recognition.
Is a gesture termed as when user holds the device and shakes it(say upwards, downwards or side- side)?
Is a gesture termed as when a finger is placed on the screen and traced UP,DOWN,RIGHT,LEFT? If so what is the difference between touch screen and gestures.
I am confused between 1) and 2) option.
What is a gesture exactly?
I create some gestures and they are working, but if I add a button the gesture doesn't work over the button. I split the display resolution to make different gestures and i get x, y coordinates. If i make a gesture starting with the button the coordinates are both 0, only under them i get normal coordinates. It's like the coordinates are starting only after the button.

I got pretty good at using the Palm shorthand for entering text. I'm pretty sure that a similar "shorthand keyboard" would work out well on the Android phones, but I haven't seen any apps that will replace the keyboard with a "shorthand" pad.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have hooked in a ScaleGestureDetector to an OnTouchListener as instructed in Android documentation. For some reason the ScaleGestureDetector does not always detect end of a pinch gesture. This happens mostly when pinching fast from large to small.
The effect is that after I have released both fingers the detector does not fire the gesture end event. If I touch the screen with one afterwards it still thinks I'm continuing the scale gesture (keeps firing onScale events). I have to do another gesture to get the detector to fire end event.
I have added logs to the OnTouchListener and when the scale gesture gets stuck I still get motion events normally when using one finger and event.getPointerCount() is 1.
I have made sure that I don't have any other listeners intervening. View that has the onTouchListener is not the only view on screen but this effect happens also when I'm very careful to begin and end the gesture inside this one view.
Is there any way to improve the end detection?
Or if there a way for me to manually set the ScaleGestureDetector to fire onScaleEnd and change scaleGestureDetector.isInProgress() to false?
What I want is to have an options menu where the user can choose to navigate the menu between:
1) touching a button and then pressing down on the trackball to select it, and
2) drawing predefined gestures from Gestures Builder
As it stands now, I have created my buttons with OnClickListener and the gestures with GestureOverlayView. Then I select starting a new Activity depending on whether the using pressed a button or executed a gesture. However, when I attempt to draw a gesture, it is not picked up. Only pressing the buttons is recognized. The following is my code:

I am using gesture detector to catch "flings" and using a view flipper to change the screen when this happens. Some of my child views contain list views. The the gesture detector wont recognize a swipe if you swipe on the list view. But it will recognize it if it is onTop of TextView's or ImageView's. Is there a way to implement it so that it will recognize the swipes even if they are on top of another view that has a ClickListener?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have the same problem with Gesture Builder on the emulator and when I build the app myself and install om my G1.
It does not save the gestures correctly on my sdcard. It does not create a folder called "gestures" but instead creates a file called "gestures" with a size on about 2kb. It does not grow when I create more gestures. Is this really correct, because I thought a folder would be created in which each gesture would be stored in different files.
I look in code for CreateGestureActivity.java and here is where the magic of saving happens:
final GestureLibrary store = GestureBuilderActivity.getStore(); store.addGesture(name.toString(), mGesture); store.save();

The app "Zedge" has the same in the "search" function. Via drag/drop you can open the "search" view.
My View subclass is can be written one of two ways, I've tried both. One implements OnGestureListener, the other doesn't. In both cases, the Activity registers the view for context menus when the view is created and registers itself, the activity, as the context menu listener.In the case where OnGestureListener is *not* implemented, context menus work. onCreateContextMenu() and onContextItemSelected() are both called and the menu works as expected. In the case where OnGestureListener *is* implemented by the view subclass, the context menu processing functions in the activity are never called. Problem is, I need both. Without OnGestureListener, I don't get fling events. With it, I don't get context menus. need both.

So my application has a large amount of textual data. Up until this point I've been using forward and back buttons to navigate from section to section. I was impressed with the horizontal scrolling of the Ebook reader from Alkido that is available on the store which uses a horizontal fling gesture to flip the pages. Does anyone have any experience doing something like this? I've done it a number of ways, but none seem to be very smooth or efficient.
