+Instructions for adding the Faceplus driver to Interface
+Andrzej Kapolka, April 8, 2014
+
+1. Copy the Faceplus sdk folders (include, win32) into the interface/external/faceplus folder.
+   This readme.txt should be there as well.
+
+2. Delete your build directory, run cmake and build, and you should be all set.
