Kinect workshops at Bartlett, UCL, 07-11 November 2011

Between 7th and 11th of November, Przemek Jaworski together with Madhav Kidao taught a hands-on workshop on Kinect and interactive techniques. Main purpose was to use body as an interface, explore alternative data input techniques in design, and create augmented spaces that react to user movement. Techniques used included : gesture recognition, skeleton/hand/finger tracking, body movement detection and similar.

In addition, most of the installations were coupled with agent-based systems, to provide artificial collective intelligence environment, which was enriching the interactive layer, and providing live feedback on movements/data input.
