Chrome web browser extension for MapGestureController. Visualizes where the user points at on the screen.
Currently, only OpenStreetMap, Google Maps and locally hosted map applications are supported. To add more sites, add them to this respository's manifest.json file.
This extension tries to open a websocket conection to localhost:8765, which is the websocket server opened by MapGestureController. If the connection establishes successfully, two div elements are inserted into the web page. They serve as a pointer, one for each hand. The extension receives the location on the screen where the user points at through the websocket connection. The div elements will be placed there.
