Show HN: Flutter - Control Spotify or iTunes Using Gestures thru Webcam

Really cool. I was just playing with it and my girlfriend walked over to ask me a question. I held up my hand to my computer as if to say "Hold on, computer."

It was a bit surreal. Very cool. Can't wait for more gestures or a generalized way to program my own gestures. I would love to be able to gesture "Switch to iTerm.app" by doing an OK sign or something. Sign language letters maybe?

Anyway, thanks. Really enjoy it already, can't wait for more. Also, I would pay money for this. If it had all of the play/pause/forward/back functionality I think I'd give you 4.99 if it was accurate. Just sayin'.

My thoughts almost exactly on the programmable front... like Better Touch Tool but rather No touch Tool, although the latter name does retain the locker-room hilarity of the former.

Perhaps a gesture to bring up the app switching ribbon and a gesture to reference the item (numbered from left to right maybe.)

I'd also like to have the option to calibrate it, my eyes are painfully photosensitive and I tend to work in very dimly-lit conditions.

Agreed. $4.99 sounds ideal full a fully functional accurate version.
