9. Office of the Historian: Havana, Cuba
• Havana is one of the finest historical centers in Latin America.
• Dire need to record, preserve, and monitor historic structures:
• Old Havana is an UNESCO World Heritage site.
• There are 3,000 historic structures in Old Havana alone.

19. The Kinect
A 3D Natural Interface (NI)
device.
Made of:
l 1 RGB camera (like a webcam)
l 2 infrared sensors that use
stereoscopic imaging to
interpret depth.
l 4 microphone array that can
interpret depth and location by
sound.
Friday, November 22, 13
The Kinect is designed for
interface development that does
not use physical buttons or other
mechanical apparatus to interface
with a machine.

20. Depth Information
It starts with depth.
l Kinect projects out a 3x3
infrared grid and calculates
depth based on numbers
returned.
What happens next depends
on software...

21. Kinect – Skeletal Tracking
Skeletal tracking allows the
Kinect to map a person's
movements to a skeletal rig
in a 3D model. There are
different skeletal tracking
options.
For this project, we were able to find an open-source solution that
used OpenNI, and PrimeSense's NiTE skeletal viewer (with an
educational license provided.)
This allowed us to rig up the model's with skeletons.
