Hello riyazwalikar!

This sounds very interesting, please post what you have thus far, if code is there for all to see, others passing through may see it and perhaps shed some light.

Also, you can add a pseudocode or some sort and see if that gets you anything, perhaps we might be able to point you to a tutorial that fits your purpose,

how's that for a deal? Also, do search this forum up above, just in cse something already posted. I am probably going to update your title for added hits on this...

In a bit!
