Students at the MIT Media Lab Fluid Interface Group hacked the Xbox 360 Kinect and made it work with the Windows 7 operating system. These students are controlling their Windows screen using just their hands. The students were able to set up the hack using DepthJS, a system that can make JavaScript work with the Microsoft Kinect to navigate around websites. Check it out in the demo videos below:
