Kinect + Digital Camera = DIY CGI

Kinect + Digital Camera = DIY CGI

Kaley says: “The team behind the RGB+D Toolkit (an open-source, video game/Final Cut Pro hybrid) is attempting to transform the Kinect gaming console into a real filmmaking tool, making stunning DIY CGI a real possibility. Using a Kinect and a standard DSLR camera, like your Canon 5D, these avant-garde image-makers have created a technique that allows you to generate a true CGI and video hybrid. The results are pretty striking.”
