Open Media Toolkit Goes Open Source

Yves Schmid writes "Open Media Toolkit is now distributed under the LGPL. OMT is a powerful C++ framework for Mac OS X and Windows, for the development of real time 2D/3D multimedia applications. Several commercial applications have been developed using OMT, including games from Disney, Hasbro, Mattel, Scitex, and HumanCode. OMT includes classes for 2D/3D rendering and animation (through DirectX, OpenGL or its own software renderer), sound, files, database, windowing, user-interface, media importer (3D and 2D), input control, etc."

    The biggest projects I know are:

    - Barbie Adventure the riding club (Mattel) #1 of sales in US during one month
    - Atlantis, the lost empire (Disney)
    - Tanaka (PMW)
    - The player of Clickworks was also based on OMT (Scitex)

    Several educational games and real-time art projects (like VJ performance) was also created using OMT. PTMKids and HumanCode developed a couple of commercial projects with OMT too...
