JavaScript Gesture Recognition for Touch Screens

JavaScript Gesture Recognition for Touch Screens

Introducing “Gestures”, a proof-of-concept for front-end gesture recognition on iOS and Android devices. There is nothing particularly revolutionary going on here, I simply re-tooled the $1 Unistroke Recognizer to accept mobile safari and android touch screen device input. I was surprised to notice no-one had yet implemented web based touch and gesture recognition (for mobiles) to this degree, so I’ve chucked the code up on GitHub, and hosted a static page for a demo.

Recognizes "check", "x", "v", "^", "circle" etc.
