VIDEO: You Can Build Microsoft's Kinect-Powered "HoloDeck" at Home

Got a Kinect, a Projector and a Knack for Code ? If so, you Can Create a Star Trek-Like "HoloDeck" in your Living Room. Microsoft has Released the RoomAlive Toolkit, a Software Framework that Lets you String Together Kinect Motion Trackers to Create Interactive Projection Maps. You Can Use it to Build Anything from Extra-Immersive Games through to Art Displays. This Isn't Exactly a Trivial Undertaking (Microsoft is Promising Lots of Tutorials) but, it Means that, you Won't Have to Wait for Someone Else to Bring your Augmented Reality Dreams to Life.
