We would like to test your DIY Atlas globes for educational applications in primary schools

This would be great for public meetings around urban planning issues, for example to explore different scenarios. Would love to play around with it!
Very good product, i hope to test it as soon as posibel
We are Communication design students and would like to try this in our school (ESTGP-Portugal)…its a very good app.
Greet!!!
i can’t download it… why?
How do I download it?
Are you still planning on posting a download?
Yes we are, we’re sorry for the delay. We are trying to optimize the code as much as we can before posting it, we need to consider different operating systems, CPUs and webcams. We promise to post the code soon and notify all of you guys (who left/sent us an e-mail)
thanks for all of your support,
Dan& Mushon
[…] sorry for the long wait, we wanted to polish the code and comment the source well before putting it here for download, but now it’s up. Go download the application and build your own Atlas Gloves. As you probably can imagine, this app is pretty hacky and is bound to work differently with different types of computers and webcams. We encourage you to play with the code and adjust it, we’ve made it as accessable as we could. Now it’s your turn. […]

My current functioning setup includes, WinVDIG 1.01, QuickTime 6.5.2, and GE Beta 4.xx. Very fun program. The only trouble I had was garbled video in the window, this was fixed by uninstalling the newest QT 7.xx version and dropping back to ver 6.5.2. I downloaded it from http://www.old-versions.net/.

Just hold both lights up towards the edge of the view screen and you’ll be switched into control mode. There are actual instructions for this on the DIY page.
