IDEA supports Open Source principles, believing that bold innovation can be nurtured and sustained when the foundation of technological achievements is shared.
As part of our ongoing research and development, the following projects have come out of the IDEA labs. These are Actionscript and PHP classes and components. They are not yet in well-documented packages, so if you would like to use these tools, please contact us.
- Accessibility simulators - ActionScript classes to simulate color blindness and cataracts.
- Text bitmaps - PHP class to create text bitmaps, with attractive anti-aliasing, coloring, and drop-shadows. Generates bitmaps dynamically so you can put attractively formatted text into your web pages. Requires PHP, t1lib and/or freetype.
