Dear List,
I thought some of you might be interested in this :
Apparently a lot smaller and cheaper than kinect.
Cheers!
Pierre.
I saw a demo of the unit at Maker Faire this past weekend, and it looked impressive. Not only cheaper than the Kinect, but they say it's significantly higher resolution. I'm looking forward to playing with one. And talking to reps for the company, they seem supportive of developers and want to see what they do with it. There is a link on the web site to apply for a free dev kit.

but it seems as it is developed more for sitting in front of the screen, waving your hands. i guess you cannot cover the same area than with kinect and do things like tracking standing persons or dancers.
but we'll see - still looks interesting.

True, but if it's really as precise as what is shown in the video it could be a very interesting tool for creating new instruments.
