Controlling GNOME 3 With Skeltrack

Posted by Unknown on Wednesday April 4, 2012 @04:51AM from the dance-dance-computer-interface dept.

dartttt writes with an excerpt from Ubuntu Vibes: "Skeltrack is a Free Software (GPL3) library by Igalia for tracking the human skeleton joints from depth images. It is implemented with GLib and uses plain mathematics to detect the human skeleton and although it does not use any database, it was inspired by Andreas Baak's paper: "A Data-Driven Approach for Real-Time Full Body Pose Reconstruction from a Depth Camera" Skeltrack devs have recorded very cool videos showing Gnome Shell and Linux games being controlled through gestures."

If it requires Gnome 3, I predict it won't be a big seller...

And by using it, all your thoughts will automatically be covered by GPLv3, too. :-)
