USB driver for eGalax touchscreen controller

Noticed a USB touchscreen driver has been released on OS4Depot...

http://os4depot.net/share/driver/input/egalaxtouch4a.lha

Supports eGalax touchscreens, but struggling to find anywhere to buy one in the UK, anyone?

Would be interesting to try out and might be quite nice to use with AMC when released.

Anyone tried out this driver yet?

@Daniel

Hey, that's a good point. This driver in conjuction with the forthcoming AMC, it will brings new experience.

@Daniel

Promising. Let's hope he gets it fully working. And lets hope someone can use it for something either fun or more pro.

@Daniel

www.komplett.se has some lilliput LCDs but not that one.

@Daniel

Hello,
i'm the author of the driver.
If someone has got a different touchscreen, tell me the model (e-mail: project4amiga@gmail.com) and i'll try to write a driver for it.

Thanks.

@AlfredOne

Well, ya can't ask for more support than that!

Well done there AlfredOne!

@AlfredOne

Well done indeed!!

@Joeled

I wish I could find one to test it under AmigaOS 4. But if Alfred's list and compatibility will increase in the future with new drivers, that would be awesome. Something that we didn't have before. Well done mate.

This is the video of the touchscreen driver running on my AmigaONE and OS4.1u2.

@AlfredOne

Check my queries in news section, thanks.

This is great news for small gadget developers !

Touch screen is the way forward aswell as AMC like front ends.

In a few years we may find Amiga software running things similar to Google TV :

Imagine combining TV/internet together

This video (AROS one) says that Poseiden picks up the touchscreen straight off (as I understand it) :)

And one AOS4.1:

Certainly opens up the possibilities for Tablet computing...

Here you can find the list of compatible touchscreens.

@AlfredOne

Hi, just a small question. How well does the driver work for those lilliput touch screens?
What's missing?

@Antique
You can find an update about the state of work here:
Touch Device for Amiga

Here is a demo video:
Multitouch USB driver for AmigaOS4.1

I'm searching for Betatesters.

The touch framework is almost completed.
The video shows the preferences of the touch device used to calibrate and test the touchscreen.
Then you can see my touchbench application translating basic touch gestures to mouse events on the workbench screen.
E.g. the app produces a right mouse button press event when pressing and holding the screen for >3secs .

@AlfredOne

Did you get any betatesters?
Maybe i should try and find my lilliput screen. :)

Hello guys!
The first public beta release of my touch device for AmigaOS4 is online.
You can download it from the homepage Project4A or from OS4Depot.

Best regards.

AlfredOne

Thank you making these device drivers !

I got Lilliput FA1011-NP/C/T 10.1 inch touchscreen monitor. I had some trouble to get it calibrated. But after I got it calibrated it has been working fine. I'm using it next to my synthesizers to control a MIDI sequencer and other MIDI related stuff.

What's AMC?
