Using the Microsoft Kinect with Javascript OR Sweatin' to the Web
summary
Kinect depth cameras stream X Y Z joint positions into Node via a native plugin (npm install newemission) and reach the browser over WebSockets; demos show painting and a flappy-bird–like egg-to-bird using reveal.js and node webkit but tracking is flaky on stage. Mentions OpenNI, prime sense, connect.js and a retail analytics use case; industry estimate projects 15 billion by 2018. Hands-on code exists, sometimes unreliable hardware limits demos.
