Kinect Musical Instrument

Found this. Honestly it's not that impressive to me. The required movements are so massive and discrete. I think dub-step is about the only thing you could create with it since dub is so exaggerated and without any subtlety. Still I'm glad people are working on these things, but it serves as an indication of how far we are from a having anything like a "dance-instrument".

The one thing that was interesting to me is how they overcame the problem of using 2 Kinects simultaneously. It would be interesting to see what real character motion capture equipment could do. That's got to be a couple of orders of magnitude more precise than this Kinect system.
