Get Kinected

Microsoft Kinect for Xbox 360 hears sounds and reads real-world motions then translates them into a 3D grid that devices can process. June 16, 2011 Microsoft announced the availability of Kinect for Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) from Microsoft Research, a free beta release for noncommercial applications. The SDK is designed to empower a growing community of developers, academic researchers and enthusiasts to create new experiences that include depth sensing, human motion tracking, and voice and object recognition using Kinect technology on Windows 7.

During this Maine Bytes meeting, we will extensively cover the Kinect and SDK so you will be able to incorporate this new interface into your projects.
