The Idea

Our idea stemmed from considering simulation of a theremin using Kinect. That lead us to thinking about doing other cool things related to music with hand motion. Finally, it ended up with using Kinect as a controller to play Pump It Up with your hands instead of your stomping feet as seen below.

To run the game, we will be using a beagleboard with Linux installed. Hopefully, the board will be fast enough for running the game and processing Kinect inputs at the same time.
