Re: M$ Kinect controlling robots!

So what I gather from these posts is the Kinect lies somewhere between an ultrasonic sensor and a full LIDAR array in terms of price and capability. Fun.

Given that there's a very confined space to drive any VRC, FTC, or FRC robot on a competition field, I don't forsee Kinect revolutionizing the driver's station any time soon.
