Show HN: Flutter - Control Spotify or iTunes Using Gestures thru Webcam

I've been sitting here for like five minutes just starting and stopping. About every third time I laugh and say (out loud) "that's so awesome."

This is very cool. It worked perfectly even in the dimly lit room I am sitting in.

What I've been wanting and have thought about developing myself is a universal play/pause control that pauses whatever you happen to be listening to at the moment, whether it be a desktop client like iTunes, Spotify, Rdio, etc, or if it is something running in a web browser like Pandora, Soundcloud, Youtube, etc.

This app takes a step towards this in the way it handles iTunes and Spotify at the same time, by controlling whichever app had focus last.

I imagine for web browser control a browser extension would necessary. And ideally a plugin architecture would exist to allow 3rd parties to add support for additional apps.

Luke - that's a great point. We're working on it and it will be in the next version!

In case anyone was wondering, I can confirm "mirror stops" work: try facing your laptop towards a mirror and doing your gestures from behind the computer- wow!

It seems like the Minority Report future of gesture based control is not that far off. Great app!
