Robocalypse: Controlling Nodebots with Kinect gestures
Please log in to watch this conference skillscast.
Building Arduino robots is pretty cool, but being able to program a robot in Javascript is even better. However, what is even more awesome is the ability to control a robot with Kinect gestures.
During this presentation Joel will give you a brief introduction to the awesome world of NodeJs, Johnny-Five and Socket.io. The session will deliver an overview of a Kinect gesture detection library and how to connect it to a node-bot.
