Kinect Quadropter

[Jeux]

This Quadropter uses Kinect as a 3D radar to track objects, and avoid them.

In my opinion, I can't wait to see them attach to a gun to this.

Kinect is going to take over the human race.

That's actually fucking neat. Seems like the least interesting use for kinect is as a game controller.

Yeah, I'm also starting to think most of its sells are from people trying to mess with it.

While we're at it, where can one acquire a cheap Quadropter in Europe?

A kinect or the quadrotor?

I knew someone would ask that, edited the above post.

I'd like to see someone try this using a wiimote or that PS3 dildo thing :v:

Well I don't know any specific stores, but the original brand of these guys(I think) is DraganFlyer. You can try looking in radioshack or the UK equivalent. There are some off brand ones that can be controlled by iPhones I've seen in them. They're not quite as modular as the real thing, but they're a good starting point.

Better yet, have it identify competing consoles and attack them.

Whos copter crashes into other console, doing most damage to it, wins!

Or just they have to make a AI and mod the PS3/XBOX/WII so it will automatically attack. No help from humans, no connection to a computer/phone. Runs off the console.

Or mini gatling guns, or cannons, or pistols. What copter falls down first, loses.
