I hate to pile on, but you're putting up a lot of barriers that are going to discourage casual viewers. I don't want to sign up for some app I won't use for anything else. I don't …

That's funny, I did the exact same thing, although I didn't make it as far as you. I had a working mouse cursor (reading the mouse data directly from the serial port) and buttons. …

MacOS's built-in Preview app can do this. It's fairly limited, but it supports text boxes and signatures, which I have found very useful for not needing to install custom software.…

It's reasonable for casual biometrics, such as a phone unlock, where the likelihood of someone with a match trying to use your phone is remote. Many people will choose the same pas…
