"We love hacking communities. It hasn’t even been two weeks since the Kinect officially launched in the United States, and already drivers are in the wild"
Kinect is up and running on Macs and PCs doing a little mid-air multitouch. Another development team has taken the next step with multi-touch: with the combination of a Kinect and a projector, they’ve successfully used the Kinect to turn any surface into a multi-touch interface.
The development team have a pretty complex array of gear running to define a plane and a polygon boundary area for the video projector and Kinect to work together. Once they map a set of coordinates recorded by the Kinect onto the coordinates from the projector, the system’s calibrated and multi-touch ready.
