Vuo

Live interactive-media programming environment.

VuoOverview

Vuo, a visual programming environment, lets you design and build live, interactive media. Drag, drop, and connect Vuo's building blocks to make your own graphics, animations, sounds, apps, UI prototypes, and more.

Vuo is designed to be both incredibly fast and easy to use. To create a multimedia composition with Vuo, you start by browsing through Vuo's library of nodes and pick out the ones you want to use. Nodes are your building blocks. Some nodes connect to devices, such as a mouse or a MIDI controller. Other nodes make something happen on the screen, such as popping up a window or drawing a sphere. Other nodes control when things happen in your composition. Once you've picked some nodes, you make them talk to each other by connecting them with cables. For example, you can make a sphere follow the mouse pointer by having the mouse node send its coordinates to the node that positions the sphere. The power of Vuo is that you can mix and mash up any nodes to create a composition. Combine mouse and graphics... MIDI and text... video and 3D models. You're limited only by your node library and your imagination. You can create standalone apps with Vuo to share with Mac OS users.

Vuo has a free-trial version. Vuo costs $49, and Vuo Pro (Vuo plus nodes for stereoscopic rendering, Art-Net, projection mesh, antialiasing and motion blur when exporting movies, and a dark interface node) for $149.
