Sessions

Connect with your Kinect

Level: 100
Track: None
Time: 03:45 PM - 05:00 PM
Day: 1
Room: Improving Enterprises 1

The Microsoft Kinect peripheral is the fastest selling gadget of all time, selling more units in a shorter time span than the IPhone or IPad. With the release of the Windows SDK beta for Kinect, there has never been a better time to learn about this new and innovative peripheral and exploring where your imagination takes you.

This C# code focused session will dive into how to use the API to do some wicked cool things. We'll start by exploring the skeletal tracking API and follow this up with some very basic speech recognition samples. Finally we'll wrap it all together with a demo that combines a traditional WPF interface with gensture and audio queue integration.
