Windows Phone and Kinect to create “holographic” game engine



Another quick hack using the Kinect beta SDK and my new Windows Phone (which is great!). What you see is a simple game engine utilizing the pseudo-holographic effect from my other videos. A Kinect “sees” the position of the viewer and the 3D engine adjusts the image accordingly to give the illusion of a real 3D object. The 3D engine supports anaglyph 3D (red/cyan glasses) for a better effect in real life. A simple WP7 app controls the application and the helicopter using the accelerometers of the phone. If you like it, check out my other videos. Thanks for watching!

    Can you see it without looking through a camera??

  13. TeHLoY says:

    0:51 I see a creepy face. Two white dots for the eyes, and the brown line for the mouth.

  14. programming4fun says:

    @sleepzou Yes, the image is really projected onto my table. But a regular monitor would work too.

    I saw this technology in MI3

  16. Jackjan4 says:

    Where ist the Kinect in the room?

  17. Liffel says:

    any way to download this?

  18. warex3d says:

    Wow! this is just great!

  19. programming4fun says:

    @Jackjan4 It’s a few meters away, enough to have the viewer in frame.

  20. Jackjan4 says:

    @programming4fun And Kinect is so exactcly with the calibration between holo and person? :O

  21. programming4fun says:

    @Jackjan4 Yes, precision is more than enough for this application.

  22. GoldsteinTech says:

    “Oh, just a holographic projection on my coffee table” Wait what, holographic projection on coffee table? Oh, that’s old hat, nothing, everyone has that right? WTF?? But cool if real.

  23. enterthemax says:

    That’s really incredible! Microsoft should litterally cover you with money to develop this tecnology! With this kind of integration the future of WindowsPhone would be really AMAZING!

  24. JamesAndHisDrums97 says:

    It’s impressive, but the real question here is… will it blend?

  25. sunnyandy99 says:
