Abstract

The goal of the project was to reconstruct the skeleton of a Microsoft Kinect user’s hand. Out of the box, Kinect reconstruct the skeleton of users’ bodies, but it only does large joints, such that the hand is given a location on the general skeleton, but the specifics of the fingers and fist are not actually calculated.
