Pose Recognition, Johnny Lee, and Natal.

[Anonymous]

well the guy behind the cool-as Wiimote youtube videos has apparently jumped ship and has some cool stuff up on his blog.

I’ve heard plenty about natal over the past few days, but this video is pretty impressive (and I know some of the locals are doing some research into this field) so i thought I’d share the wealth.

I guess I’ll just have to wait until I see a lightsaber simulation or two…

Again, for those involved in motion tracking / pose recognition, this may be of interest.

That first video is only amazing. Must keep following up on it – hadn’t really looked into it so far. Sweet out.

The AiLive motion is very nice – good tracking using prior models of what is possible for human motion matched with nice classification.
