    The final Windows Phone Developer Tools have been released and the launch date is not far away. It's time to finalize the apps.

    Windows Phone has some tough hardware requirements, but it's still a mobile platform with limited resources. In this blog post I'll describe how to determine the current memory usage, what the allowed maximum is to get your app approved for the Marketplace and other constraints a developer should be aware of.

  • How To Save, Load And Iterate Pictures With Windows Phone 7

    In this post, René Schulte demonstrates how to load an image from the picture library with the PhotoChooserTask and how to save a picture to the library. 

    I've built a Windows Phone 7 app that uses the WriteableBitmapEx library and lets the user draw on the WriteableBitmap surface. The app supports multi touch for drawing and the radius of the pen can be changed with the Slider control. An image from the phone's picture library can be chosen with the folder icon button and the floppy disk button saves the current image to the picture library. When the third button (download icon) is clicked, all pictures from the phone's library are loaded without further user interaction. The trash button clears the draw surface.

    In this blog post, René Schulte demonstrates how to use the webcam, the CaptureImageAsync method and also how to implement and use the VideoSink.

    It's not a secret that one of my favorite Silverlight 4 features is the webcam support and I already played endless hours with it. There are many blog posts out there demonstrating how to use the webcam and how to take a screenshot with the CaptureImageAsync method. Only a few cover the VideoSink.

  • Filled To The Bursting Point - WriteableBitmapEx 0.9.5.0

    Take a look at the new WritableBitmapEx release from René Schulte, which includes new fill routines, transformations and more.

    We're slowly getting to the first feature complete release of the WriteableBitmapEx library. The last version (0.9.0.0) brought the parametric curves, optimizations and other features. This new version 0.9.5.0 focuses on filling routines, transformations, bug fixes and more optimizations.

    The new Fill* extension methods are equivalent to the Draw* shape functions. The FillRectangle and FillEllipse methods use specialized implementations to get the best performance. FillPolygon and the other functions use a simple scanline conversion algorithm with the even-odd-rule. The implemented algorithm supports concave and convex shapes.

  • FaceLight – Silverlight 4 Real-Time Face Detection

    The first Coding4Fun article of René Schulte has been published. The article demonstrates how to implement a simple facial recognition system using Silverlight 4’s new webcam feature.Image

    This article will describe the simple facial recognition method that searches for a certain sized skin color region in a webcam snapshot. This technique is not as perfect as a professional computer vision library like OpenCV and the Haar-like features they use, but it runs in real time and works for most webcam scenarios.
