Kinect Projects - The first 5 months

[seriouslyWeird]

see, that's what happens when you release something to public

people who keep the information confidential and let everyone pay for patents are fucking pathetic

[Andrestopmo]

your a genius microsoft should hire you

[yanivcogan1]

are you working right now on any kinect project? it has a much bigger potential then the wii remote, and also it has other features, like scanning object and enviorment if you search on youtube for "microsoft research" channel you will find some nice examples for kinect' capability, I was particulary impressed by the porject "kinect fusion" (kinect fusion might also be called 3d models in real time)' "indoor augmented reality" "holodesk" and "vermeer interactive display".

[Spasatcom]

Good!!!

[ncbookz]

NWO training you to be a zombiefied idiot

[AcidLies]

wired published an article saying that microsoft was hoping to publish an open source version of kinect and a commercial version too! Think about it, how much cgi went into avatar and movies like that, but now you can create the model and have the actors really act it and it will automatically form that :D

[gardrek]

1:37 Gurren?

[hirschman23]

And from this amazing expertise we have...!

Kinect Adventures...

[IsaraiLee]

too bad it doesn't work for games

[longshot789]

I see that you are in at least one of these. How have your experiments with the kinect come along?

[RyuDarragh]

Connect that sucker to WoW or Second Life and wear some HUDs.

[cerberoo]

this video is awesome!

Can you share the name of this lovely song? :D

[ElShogun]

Which is the name of the song ?

[AHeroRising]

+1 voor creative individual developers ^^

[RainStopPWIS]

And then they don't release this for the PC ? What a shame could have done alot

[timonix2]

@RainStopPWIS they have. Microsoft bought the kinect hardware from a third party who also sells the original product to consumers. With drivers and all. No hacking required.

[RainStopPWIS]

@timonix2 Cool thanks

[Filaipus]

@RainStopPWIS Microsoft is releasing it for PC, possibly after E3.

[MichaelWarkentin]

Any idea where the 3d mapping part was from?

[michiganboy10]

1:01 WTF?

[willmoniabelovedhook]

0:22 Miku Hatsune's MikuMikuDance!

[UnrecycleRubdish]

This was amazing. Thanks for compiling these videos!

[collinc2343]

@skrbicdu The kinect isn't open source...

[NikaziO14]

Play station CEO watched this

[quatros1000]

Thanks, very inspirational video.

[Randybalma]

0:25 gaming

[sonodrome]

@skrbicdu I see, thanks for the correction :)

[patu8010]

Wow, robot eyes for the blind. :o Now that's awesome.

[Uraffyouruse]

I wonder who was the idiot that disliked the video.

[Peeto87]

Why can you not just do this with a webcam?

[sonodrome]

@Peeto87 The Kinect has stereoscopic cameras so it can see depth, it also uses a laser in order to accurately plot the distance of objects. Put simply, a webcam just sees in 2D but the Kinect sees in 3D.

[TheCarridus]

@skrbicdu I disagree. This is what happens when a company innovates and gets creative with their technology.

[zazkni]

it's an Israeli invention

[zazkni]

it's an israeli invantion

[nli10]

Is this a stealth troll at the games industry who have so far failed to get anything near as interesting as this onto the shelves?

[MeMoshRocks]

0:37 response speed was impressive

[Massap2]

nice!

[rektide]

Please provide attribution! There are indeed a lot of blissfully awesome projects the public has put out, please pass em on!

[daltonsbadboy]

very interesting

[shaurz]

It seems to have a lot more non-game applications than for games.

[deogrou]

Woooow, this is AMAZING, I wish I knew about this earlier, I really don't like the games for Kinect and stuff, but this is pretty EPICC!!

[mrjimmyos]

This stuff is astonishing, well done to all those people doing this cool stuff. I think there should be a domain for these kinect hacks, a place where everyone can go to download cool stuff and find out stuff about this world of kinect hacking

[IDIEININIIS]

@mrjimmyos There is: kinecthacks [dot] net. There is also a popular Google Group for kinect hacking that you can join.

[mrjimmyos]

@IDIEININIIS I shoulda googled first heheh

[HMCreviews]

This is pretty awesome!

[bajer111]

your guys are genious

[VALKIR4636]

too much awesome for a single video ... make 10 more :)

[Hilsong3]

OMG A VIDEO I cant beliEVE IT THATS SOOOO AWESOME

[supfreerun]

E P I C

[rationsauce]

very inspirational. now gotta get my programming top notch so at least my imagination won't be boggled down by it.

[KrykoStorm]

Microsoft should create a higher resolution, higher end one for stuff like this.

[schmidtbag]

@KrykoStorm microsoft didn't make it, some israli company did. MS just slapped their name on it, just like they do with just about every other piece of hardware that has their name on it. i think asus is making a higher resolution model that will be designed for computers

[exiledrabbit]

@KrykoStorm and also for games?

[rodstartube]

@KrykoStorm if a microsoft version appears, it would be expensively sold, would crash and would need service packs every 1 month

[shadow12312gx]

@KrykoStorm Or get 4 or 5 Kinects

[cwbh10]

This. Is. AWESOME! =D

I really want to buy one :S

[murdoch2486]

there are some talented people in this world!

[123adrianramirez]

i can imagine how the future kinect games are gonna be

[theipodist]
