finding iPhrosty the 3D augmented-reality snowman on the iPhone 0

Now that the Layar Augmented Reality Browser has been released on the iPhone, I’d appreciate your help in finding Frosty the augmented-reality snowman (or would that be iPhrosty)? Simply do the five-minute augmented-reality scavenger hunt with your iPhone, take a screen shot of Frosty from the Layar AR browser, and send it to jim [at] aug.mx

The first three people that send me a screen shot of Frosty the AR Snowman from the Layar app in their iPhone will be rewarded with one token for any e-book that Apress (the publisher of my Pro JavaFX book) offers.

Painter’s Canvas Mobile Edition 0

Last June, I introduced my Painter’s Canvas article, which presents a technique for rendering complex graphics (such as fireworks, plasma, fractals, and fire). Instead of relying on nodes and javafx.scene.shape.Path objects (such as javafx.scene.shape.LineTo) to render the graphics, this technique relies on the concepts of canvas and painter for this task.

Spice up your JavaFX project with maven 0

JavaFX is a promising technology for nice Rich Internet Applications (RIA). However this is a quiet recent product (it was introduced by Sun at JavaOne, May 2007) and still lacks at integration with continuous development environments like hudson. Continuous integration is great because it reduces the gap between the development process and the release phase. With continuous integration, the work made by the developers is continuously compiled and tested against unit tests. This helps detecting many problems very early and simplifies the whole development process.

Exadel’s open source community and projects 0

I’m happy to announce that our open source community and projects web site exadel.org is now live. It also hosts its first project: JavaFX plug-in for Eclipse. Why did we create this web site? Exadel always had a number of projects available on its site for download, most of them are free. One of the biggest challenges for users was to get involved. Even though most products were open source, it wasn’t easy to get the source code. The actual download was hosted on exadel.com, support forum for each project was hosted on Google Groups, and there was no way to enter any bugs. There was a big disconnect. exadel.org will try to solve all this, it will provide everything you would expect from man open source site and community. Everything is integrated now, you get product download, source code, forum and Jira to enter bugs. Our goal is to make it as simple as possible to get involved and use our products.

This article goes into hardware requirements for streaming video, and will be followed up by a guide on how to actually record and stream on site.
