Ever since the launch of Kinect, hacking the device became a hot topic. We’ve seen lots of videos with what people achieved by hacking Kinect and even Microsoft supported further these activities by launching the Kinect SDK. So, if you’re one of those people interested in hacking Kinect than you might be pleased to hear that in London there’s a 3 day workshop in which you can create your own Superhero. The workshop begins tomorrow.
Check out the workshop description below!
Kinect Hacking: Build Your Own Superhero
Working in small teams, you will build your own augmented reality system that instantly turns anyone into a superhero. Develop super powers – shoot lasers, see through walls, fire rockets, turn invisible, all using some coding and the Kinect and OpenNI! We will provide the hardware and tools you need. We will use free and open source tools such as Processing, toxiclibs, Kinect and OpenNI, and introduce techniques in 3D graphics and interactive sound synthesis. Food and drink provided. Assemble your own team, or come and meet some creative people to form a team.
Dates and Times: 19:00-21:00 on 11, 18, 21 (Tues, Tues, Friday) October, 2011
