چکیده

The increasing popularity of full-body motion-based video games creates new challenges for game accessibility research. Many games strongly focus on able-bodied persons and require players to move around freely. To address this problem, we introduce KINECT, a toolkit that facilitates the integration of wheelchair-based game input. Our library can help game designers to integrate wheelchair input at the development stage, and it can be configured to trigger keystroke events to make off-the-shelf PC games wheelchair-accessible.

Reliability and validity of the Microsoft Kinect for assessment of manual wheelchair propulsion.

Concurrent validity and test-retest reliability of the Microsoft Kinect in quantification of manual wheelchair propulsion were examined. Data were collected from five manual wheelchair users on a roller system. Three Kinect sensors were used to assess test-retest reliability with a still pose. Three systems were used to assess concurrent validity of the Kinect to measure propulsion kinematics (...

3D hand gesture tracking and recognition for controlling an intelligent wheelchair

Hand gesture recognition is a user-friendly and intuitive means for human machine interaction. This paper proposes a novel 3D hand gesture recognition method for controlling an intelligent wheelchair based on both colour and depth information. Image depth information of human palm is obtained by a 3D Kinect vision sensor and then its position is obtained through the hand analysis module in Open...

Fusion of Leap Motion and Kinect Sensors for Improved Field of View and Accuracy for VR Applications 0.2in] Stanford EE267, Virtual Reality, Course Report, Instructors: Gordon Wetzstein and Robert Konrad

Kinect and Leap Motion sensors are commonly used for tracking applications today. However, both sensors have failure modes in particular tracking scenarios. The Kinect sensor is very sensitive to the orientation of the user with respect to the sensor and is susceptible to occlusions. The Leap Motion senor has a limited range and field of view, but is far more accurate than the Kinect. In this p...
