VoIPong
Play pong in a browser using your phone as the controller.
This was a demo used for the 2012 Cluecon presentation Stupid Things You Can Do With VoIP.
As of November 2018, tested as working in the following browsers:
- Chrome
- Firefox
- Opera
- Safari
Installation ##
You need node.js and NPM installed.
Install the node dependencies:
cd /path/to/checkout/node_app; npm install
In FreeSWITCH, add the following extension:
<!-- Internal extension for VoIPong -->
<extension name="voipong">
<condition field="destination_number" expression="^voipong$" break="on-true">
<action application="set" data="socket_resume=true"/>
<action application="socket" data="127.0.0.1:3001 async full"/>
<action application="respond" data="500 socket failure"/>
</condition>
</extension>
Configure something to transfer to it.
Symlink the prompts directory to a voipong directory in your sounds directory, something like:
ln -s /path/to/voipong/prompts /usr/local/freeswitch/sounds/en/us/callie/voipong
Usage ##
Start the node app:
cd /path/to/voippong/node_app; node app.js
Point a broswer at the server on port 3000.
Call your device.
Caveats
Only one browser page can be open for the game to work properly.
Bugs
Yes, mosquitoes.
