Abstract

The main goal of this diploma thesis is to present the Microsoft Kinect sensor and to describe the making of a simple application that allows human interaction with the computer through the help of Kinect. The first part of the diploma thesis describes the device Kinect, its predecessor and its related devices. Most of these devices allow us to interact with game consoles and games in a more interactive way - more movement with the body. Also two aspects of Kinect use are given. A comparison of the related devices with Kinect is made. The most current SDKs, libraries and drivers that can be used with Kinect are also presented. In the second part the installation of the working environment and the development of a simple application for human interaction with Kinect and the computer are shown. While doing so the C# programming environment in connection with Microsoft Kinect SDK version 1.5 will be used.
