Data Miming allows users to describe spatial objects, such as chairs and other furniture to a system through gestures. The system capture gestures with a Kinect camera and then finds the most closely matching object in a database of physical objects.
Data Miming can be used in a furniture warehouse, such as IKEA, to find a particular object. Instead of walking through the warehouse and searching manually, or spending time flicking through the catalog, a user just walks up to a kiosk and describes the intended object through gesture. Data Miming then responds with the closest match and points out where to find it in the warehouse.

Nice work, Is the code for this GPL licensed or accessible in a way ? I want to do a university project, object recognition while stuff are moving in front of kinect, and your code may get me started.

it's like handwriting recognition, but for 3d sculpture
