Firefly 1.0065 Now Available (with new Computer Vision and Audio Tools)

by Andy Payne

Feb 11, 2012

I am very excited to announce the release of a new build for Firefly, complete with a new suite of tools for computer vision and audio synthesis.  First, I would like to thank Panagiotis Michalatos for his support in the development of many of these new tools.  In addition to his technical help, the latest build of Firefly makes extensive use of a media library (C_sawapan_media.dll) created by Panagiotis Michalatos and Sawako Kaijima, founders of the computation and design consultancy firm known as Sawapan. For more information about their work, visit: www.sawapan.eu.

There are many new tools included in this build including: live web cam streaming, video playback, image analysis and filtering, sound capture, tone generation, and many more...  For more detailed information, make sure to check out the README.txt file included in the download.  Or take a look at the some of the new components in action here (https://vimeo.com/35973354).  I look forward to hearing your feedback, so let me know what you think about these new tools (and what features you'd like to see in the next release).

    Hi BLA,

    You should be able to turn on any LED by sending a HIGH digital value to that pin.  To do this, you need to right-click on the pin connected to the LED and set the state to be digital.  Then, all you need to do is supply a true boolean value to that input (an integer value of 1 will also work). You can turn it off by setting the boolean value to false (or entering a zero).  This should be relatively easy to turn on/off LED's at will.  You may also want to look at the Binary Blink component which will oscillate zeros and ones based on a timing pattern (to create blinking patterns).  It may be helpful for your application.

    HTH,

    Andy
