It took some time, but the upgraded hardware is here. There are a lot of improvements compared to the first generation: Alternative input method prototype http://blog.framelabs.eu/blog/touchless-input/ Sat, 07 Oct 2023 10:00:00 +0100 http://blog.framelabs.eu/blog/touchless-input/ The ArtFrames have – beside their display, obviously – a pretty minimalistic interface to the user and observers: Only one flush-mounted momentary switch with an LED ring to signal that the device is currently awake.

Grayscale is great for a lot of subjects and even a commonplace enhancement filter in artistic images and photos, but being able to display colors would certainly be a nice extension of the possibilities.
