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.

Data Miming is a research project by

  • 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.

  • oh wow, that's a really cool idea.

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