HoloDesk - Direct 3D Interactions with a Situated See-Through Display

HoloDesk is a novel interactive system combining an optical
see through display and Kinect camera to create the illusion
that users are directly interacting with 3D graphics. A virtual
image of a 3D scene is rendered through a half silvered mir-
ror and spatially aligned with the real-world for the viewer.
Users easily reach into an interaction volume displaying the
virtual image. This allows the user to literally get their hands
into the virtual display. A novel real-time algorithm for rep-
resenting hands and other physical objects, which are sensed
by the Kinect inside this volume, allows physically realistic
interaction between real and virtual 3D objects.

2:32　手は玉とは緩衝し積み木とは緩衝しない。且つ玉は手と積み木に緩­衝する。という条件下だと玉を乗せた手を積み木に透過させて玉を­積み木の上に乗せる、という自分が幽霊になったかの様な表現が出­来る。これこそが正に拡張現実だ。

Imagine Skyrim with a holo-sword :3 I'm waiting for it...

didn't realise technology was this far with getting the sensors so accurate o.O smart to use several inputs so the machine can compare and evaluate where the objects actually are!
