<p><br /> *Now compatible with latest PowerAMP version (v2.x)*</p>
<br />
<p><br /> Hi everyone, PowerAMP Status Bar Controller (formerlly PowerAMP Controller + Kinect) is an external add in for the famous PowerAMP music player.<br /><br /> This application allows *new* ICE CREAM SANDWICH Mobile devices and Honeycomb+ tablets user to control PowerAMP directly from their notification bar. Moreover, it also has an *experimental* feature of connecting your Microsoft Kinect and control music directly with your hand gestures !</p>
<br />
<p><br /> *Features:<br /><br /> + Control PowerAMP directly from Notification Bar (Quick play/pause/next/previous/volume control).<br /><br /> + Multiple backgrounds (currently 7) for you to select.<br /><br /> + FIRST ANDROID APPLICATION featuring connecting with Microsoft Kinect (requires Android 3.1+ for USB Host + USB OTG Cable + ROOT)</p>
<br />
<p><br /> *Integrating with Kinect:<br /><br /> (see <a href="http://www.google.com/url?q=http://www.nkahnt.com/musicctrl/manual.html&... target="_blank">http://www.nkahnt.com/musicctrl/manual.html</a> for pictures, YouTube clip coming soon)<br /><br /> Experimental feature, do not rate this application low if it is not working well. Better support will come as soon as skeleton tracking feature is complete<br /><br /> Requirements: USB Host + USB OTG Cable + Seperate power supply for your Kinect + ROOT + Android 3.1<br /><br /> - Connect Kinect to USB host.<br /><br /> - Launch PowerAMP Controller from your app drawer.<br /><br /> - Click on the Kinect icon (may not work the first time of clicking since the application is asking for root permission).<br /><br /> - Tilt camera to suit your need (prefer place without interference).<br /><br /> - Start controlling music with hand gesture.</p>
<br />
<p><br /> *Hand gestures:<br /><br /> Work best in range between 1m and 2m<br /><br /> - Spread 5 of your finger vertically in in front of the camera to start/pause music playing.<br /><br /> - Spread 5 of your finger horizontally to the right in in front of the camera to skip to next song.<br /><br /> - Spread 5 of your finger horizontally to the left in in front of the camera to go back to previous song.<br /><br /> - If you do the gesture correctly, the LED on your Kinect will flash green.</p>
<br />
