M$ Kinect controlling robots!
So we've all seen Wiimotes and Xbox controllers as alternatives to joysticks, and probably most of us know that Microsoft just released their Kinect system.
Adafruit (probably heard of them too  ) offered a $2000 dollar bounty for the developer of the first open source driver for Kinect. Well, although M$ made it difficult, somebody did it! I can't wait to see one of these on an FRC system, even if it's not for a competition.http://groups.google.com/group/openkinect/?pli=1 Not sure if they've actually been released in the public yet due to M$ being control freaks...time will tell.
