I'm proud to announce that the new release of accelerometer-based
gestures, and screen orientation is now available for download.
What you've seen in the video from
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2S2rQUETwc is now available.

This release includes:
An application with user interface that allows the user to train the
gestures for himself/herself;
A listener daemon that sends a notification on the screen of the
recognized gesture;
Automatically switch of screen orientation for the four possible modes
(2xportrait, and 2xlandscape).

Here's the direct link for the release:

You can find documentation, installation instructions, screenshots
etc. on the Wiki: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Gestures
There's a quick way to install it, and a more detailed way... Read
http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Gestures

I would suggest carefully reading the instructions, and running the
gesture listener as soon as you install the package (i.e. before
training).
Of course, the gestures were not trained for you (unfortunately I had
a limited set of training data - only myself), so you'll have to train
them for yourself.

Have fun with it!

Thanks,
Paul
