[andreakb21]

I’m just now realizing this I feel like I’ve been left in the stone age lol but this is awesome :)

It's just a matter of time for people to start drawing penises.

why are they wasting time? DRAW PENISES!

CAN I DO IT WITH A REGULAR CAMERA? maybe a video camera?

[cruxphotography]

@PlzBeAvailablePlz yes, download CCV, it's free and open source, but it's easier with a kinect because you can just take a slice at a specific distance away since it's a depth camera.

@PlzBeAvailablePlz When you CCV you mean "community CORE VISION"?

It's actually not interactive as they'd like you think it is.

More like a motion detector to play a preset of writing on the projected screen.

Doesn't let you write or draw anything.

Lame. :/

@Nanaijo3 I thought it was totally interactive. They're using kinect, I don't think there are any "preset" writings. You can write whatever.

@Nanaijo3 I walked up - touched the glass and started drawing with my hands, we had three people going at the same time drawing designs. Its totally interactive! :)
