A pinball machine is not required. As long as you have a system that runs FreeBSD and you have a QuickCam camera, it should work fine. It has been tested only on the B/W camera and expects to receive a B/W image.

You do not need a pinball machine for the project to run. There is a special player, called draw, that can track your right hand movement. You can touch objects on the screen and interact with them. If no data I/O device is connected, you must change in pinball/io/ADR2200.java the variable devicedConnected to be equal to false.
