• A Java application
• A simple multi-player game that simulates multiple armies, each composed of multiple soldiers, in a background thread
• Implements a multitouch framework that can read either TUIO multitouch events over a network, or WM_TOUCH multitouch events native to MS Windows 7 (allowing for easy use with 3M multitouch hardware), or pseudo-multitouch events simulated with a standard mouse (useful for testing when true multitouch hardware is not available). To choose between TUIO/WM_TOUCH/mouse simulator, simply swap in the appropriate version of one source code file (MultitouchFramework.java) and recompile.

• A Java application
• A simple multi-user electronic whiteboard for making drawings, allowing each user to draw with multiple fingers and choose options from their own floating palette
• Implements a multitouch framework that can read either native Windows 10 touch events (using JWinPointer), or pseudo-multitouch events simulated with a standard mouse (useful for testing when true multitouch hardware is not available). To choose between JWinPointer or the mouse simulator, simply swap in the appropriate version of one source code file (MultitouchFramework.java) and recompile.
