As part of a lab project in university; I had the pleasure to work on the Kinect, Mindset and AR Drone.
The goal was to build an application that uses all 3 together.
Using the Mindset headset; we have this one we’d get the concentration level through bluetooth on our application and elevate the AR Drone.
And through Kinect hand movements we’d control more the drone.
Unfortunately the headset stopped working a bit after starting the project (thank you Neurosky for an unstable product, it never really worked well; even right after buying it we always had to restart it a few times to get it working)
So we continued with just the Kinect.
And this is what we got
:
The code will be public on codeplex very soon (just cleaning it up).
The code is available on codeplex: http://minddrone.codeplex.com/
If you’re fluent in French I’ve written a couple of articles and will write more on the lab blog explaining more in depth this project:
