We were intrigued to see a video taken at the recent SXSW event that showed an ‘Uncle Sam’ recruitment poster that uses Kinect technology to track the viewer and point ‘I want you’ in the right direction to identify the viewer.

We couldn’t link directly to the video, so you need to go here and scroll down. If you look slightly further down, there is another interesting video of a VR application that uses a Hololens and an actuator to make a kind of virtual game. The player throws virtual spells at a pile of bricks that do, actually, ‘explode’. The application also used a Myo from Thalmic Labs to track the players arm motion (BR)
