Goals
To obtain an understanding of natural user interface technology, making the body the interaction device. Body movement and gesture detection, hand and head tracking, gaze interaction and other ways of controlling the computer with the body and mind. VR-interaction with handcontrolls.
Prerequisites
Some basic understanding of programming. All students will develop a program controlled by a sensor like the Leap Motion capturing a non-trivial hand-interaction. Design aspects of body-motion based interaction.
Organization
A workshop series, testing different technologies and applications such as the kinect, leap motion, Myo, Eye detection, VR-handcontrolls, our webcam-based motion control. Individual or group projects developing small applications with one of the sensors.
