Usage of Depth Camera xbox Kinect

Interaction in an immersive virtual environment (IVE) such as a CAVE is divided into three main tasks: Travel techniques, selection/manipulation techniques and system control techniques. Users are active participants in the 3D computer generated virtual world, and are able to explore, select and manipulate the world and embedded data.

The Purpose of the project is to investigate the usage of Depth camera xbox “Kinect” to implement some gesture recognition in a Virtual Reality environment.
