000000swan, Kinect, Unity 3D + Wekinator

I'm using the kinect to create a real time video game performance environment for my music project, 000000swan.

We are using a hacked kinect in a way that no one else is; we are not using skeleton tracking but gesture recognition using machine learning. We are teaching the computer to associate gestures with graphics. The computer moves graphics in a 3d real time game engine based on the position of my body.
This is a preview of what we are up to....

Hey! Rebecca here (Wekinator creator). If anyone is curious to learn more about how Wekinator works, here's an older video (pre-kinect) in which we use a webcam and USB game controller to control sound: cs.princeton.edu/​~fiebrink/​drop/​wekinator/​WekinatorDemo2.m4v. Also see the Weinator homepage: code.google.com/​p/​wekinator/​.

I'm pretty sure ... that you are my dream woman. In all seriousness, my best wishes with your efforts as developers ride the cusp of this new wave of interactive game design and input systems.
