data glove navigation

There are some problems with your timer. First off, you never register your timer with Vizard, so it is never called. Second, you are incorrectly accessing the viewpoint. Try replacing your mytimer function with the following code:

def UpdateView():
	gesture = glove.getGesture()
	
	if gesture == hand.GESTURE_INDEX_FINGER:
		#Index finger point
		viz.MainView.move( 0, 0, 1*viz.elapsed())
	elif gesture == hand.GESTURE_FIST:
		#Fist
		viz.MainView.move( 0, 0, -1*viz.elapsed())
		
		
vizact.ontimer(0,UpdateView)
