Not clicking, waving…. I’ve been helping my kids with their homework, and one of them (I wont name who, so as to avoid any embarrassment) had to deliver a presentation in PowerPoint. I wanted to add a bit of pizzazz to the experience looked at hooking up a Kinect so that they could present with gestures, rather than clicking with a mouse. Seems like a good idea, right? I grabbed the Kinect for Windows SDK , and went looking on codeplex for kinect related samples , where I found the Kinect PowerPoint Control . It was nice, but It didn’t do exactly what I wanted. By coincidence, Dr Neil sent me an email about nsquared slyda , which just lets me change between slides using hand gestures. Perfecto!! We had a practice session and kiddo can move forward and back, with a wave of the hands. Next stop, the classroom!!! BTW – I see that boffins at nsquared solutions are working on more Kinect apps. I got a ping last night from Dr Neil about nsquared spydar, which is like the Coding4Fun Kinect Turret minus the violence.  I got it set up – now let’s see who comes and uses my PC when I’m away….
