BeamCommander - Open Source Lasershow Software

Hi folks,

feel free to review the brand new BeamCommander software - free, open source, made with love in Germany. Based on the great OpenFrameworks and ofxLaser addon: https://github.com/oliverbyte/beamcommander

Control lasers live via MIDI (Akai APC40 MK2) or OSC (iPad, iPhone, browser,...). Or program your custom show with your favourite software (Ableton, Logic) which outputs OSC commands.

Happy to receive your feedback,

Oliver

What a cool project! I will try this out when I get home. I was wondering if you have considered implementing support for touch designer input? Would love to use your software in conjunction with some of my live reactive patches I have already set up within touch designer. Thanks!
