The detailed view of flying the Parrot ARDrone using a Microsoft Kinect.
Keep your eyes on the screen of the laptop where you can see the red and blue blocks representing my hands. Tracking these in 3D controls the drone which can be flown in almost any direction. Note that at the end of the video the battery runs out :P
@davetaz and @benosteen code up 3D control of for the AR Drone using a MS Kinect at a developer event in London in 1 day. @davetaz pilot, @juliancheal is co-pilot.
That's my video. I did not work on the ARDrone project at all, and claim no credit, but it was very cool to see how far they had come in one day of work
