After presenting the hacked optical mouse to a few people at HONF during the cellsbutton#04, Yogyakarta International Media Art Festival, I have been working with Budi aka vj manticore, from DeadMedia.fm on improving the pd patch to use GEM for the visualization. Muuuuuch better now, than my earlier canvas spaghetti code, thanks a lot Budi!
With the new implementation we can now use the whole spectrum of live image processing and analysis, like openCV for motion tracking, or additional sound synthesis. hope to jam the worms soon...

Kudo for the new GEM Version. Think you guys managed to read the picture as a table, right? Always nice to see, that things you do not know how to, are possible anyway.
