Title: Open Source Gesture Library
Context: Multitouch: Learn it. Live it. Love it.
Synopsis: We’ve looked at multitouch interactivity before so it should be no secret that gestural UIs are poised to become an increasingly important part of every UX designers’ toolbox. The gradual reduction in the need for traditional interface controls as input devices move away from GUI and toward NUI paradigms can in one sense make our jobs easier by freeing up device real estate from UI clutter, but this means that we need to understand (and indeed ensure that our users understand) the common language of gestural input. This site offers a foundation of multitouch input upon which to build more complex interactions using nothing more than an intuitively natural vocabulary of fingertip choreography.
Best Bit: “GestureWorks ships with a library of over 200 built-in gestures.” That’s a lot of gestures.
