Submitted by Jared; July 26, 2011
So you fancy yourself as a pretty talented illustrator or artist? Trying using those same magical hands to create your next masterpiece without picking up a pencil or brush. That's what you'll have to become accustom to if you plan on taking the hand gesture drawing machine for a spin. This technological marvel was developed using a vast assortment of software and middleware to move you from traditional methods of drawing to a more hands off approach. The drawing machine was developed using OpenFrameworks, Arduino, OpenNI2TUIO, ofxKinect and Firmata. Check out the video to see the brilliant demo for the hand gesture drawing machine.
