Video: Team 294 driving telescope with Kinect
We mapped the left and right arm controls to our 2011 telescope and wrist today. Left arm controls the telescope height, right arm controls the wrist angle. Definitely stopped work in the lab for the interactive demonstration! Obviously the gains could use some additional tweaking, but it was pretty fun to see working.

Video is on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iFsYMiGbDss

We used RobotPy for 2011 competition, so the robot code is Python for this demonstration as well.
