TUIO Quartz Composer Plugin
---------------------------
Copyright (c) 2005-2016 Martin Kaltenbrunner <[email protected]>
This software is part of reacTIVision, an open source fiducial
tracking and multi-touch framework based on computer vision. 

http://reactivision.sourceforge.net/

Installation:
-------------
Copy the Quartz Composer Plugin "TuioClient.plugin" into the folder
"/Library/Graphics/Quartz Composer Plug-Ins/" and restart Quartz Composer.

Demo Patch:
-----------
This package contains a basic Quartz Composer patch "TuioDemo"
that receives and decodes TUIO messages reveived from any TUIO enabled
tracker. This patch draws a black square along with the SymbolID
for any received TuioObject as well as a grey circle for each TuioCursor,
as well as an ellipse for each TuioBlob. 

The TuioClient Plugin has a settings field for an optional UDP port,
the default TUIO/UDP port is 3333.

There are three outputs, the first one is giving all current TuioObjects,
while the second port outputs TuioCursors, and the third TuioBlobs.
All ports output "Structures", which are parameter lists that contain 
some of the following attributes (depending on the actual output):

s_id ... session ID
c_id ... cursor/symbol/blob ID
xpos ... position on X-axis (0...1)
ypos ... position on Y-axis (0...1)
angle .. rotation angle (0...360)
width .. blob width (0...1)
height . blob height (0...1)
area ... blob area (0...1)
xpeed, yspeed, rspeed, maccel, raccel ... speed and acceleration values

Source Code:
------------
The TuioClient Plugin comes with its full source code which can be
built using XCode 3.2 or later on Mac OS X 10.6 or later.
