# Euglena control applet

This is intended for use with euglena projector + microscope systems as
 developed by the [Riedel-Kruse lab](https://web.stanford.edu/group/riedel-kruse/).

Written in Java and using the Processing 3 library

I (Jan Peykiewicz, ```anewusername at gmail```) wrote this version in mid-2016,
 but don't *really* work on this project...

I haven't tested the below commands on windows, but they should
 be direct translations of the linux commands (which *do* work).


## Features

* Multiple windows (so that moving the control window around doesn't move what's
on the projector.
* Drawing using primitive shapes (lines, ellipses) and arbitrary colors.
* Freehand drawing and erasing


## Compiling

You'll need a recent JDK (eg. 1.8).

On linux,
```
cd src/
javac -cp .:../lib/*:../lib/video/library/*:../lib/serial/library/*:../lib/opencv_processing/library/* EuglenaApplet.java
```

On windows, 
```
cd src\
javac -cp .;..\lib\*;..\lib\video\library\*;..\lib\serial\library\*;..\lib\opencv_processing\library\* EuglenaApplet.java
```

## Running

On linux,
```
cd src/
java -cp .:../lib/*:../lib/video/library/*:../lib/serial/library/*:../lib/opencv_processing/library/* EuglenaApplet
```

On windows, 
```
cd src\
java -cp .;..\lib\*;..\lib\video\library\*;..\lib\serial\library\*;..\lib\opencv_processing\library\* EuglenaApplet
```

## Cleanup

On linux,
```rm src/*.class```

On windows,
```del src\*.class```

## Troubleshooting

If everything goes dark when you start the program, try alt-tab to switch between windows, it probably just fullscreened a black window.
