Hi everyone, sorry for my long absence from the forum. I was looking at a few cools ways to use vox and a kinect unit together and somehow I also stubled onto this video on youtube

very interesting and it might  inspire some of you with more knowledge with regards to programing etc to perform some pretty cool things.

Just thought Id share.

Here is a easy to use hand gesture software, which works "out of the box". It doesn't need to install the OpenNi and PrimeSense software as it says in the description - you must have only the Kinect sdk 1.8 installed. This software generate keyboard events in VoxCommando when you enable the VC-Hook-plugin and set up the keys which you want to associate.

Info for Hook plugin: http://voxcommando.com/mediawiki/index.php?title=Plugin_Hook

link to the gesture software: https://sites.google.com/site/kinectapps/handgket (to download the software you must click on the arrow symbol at the right, not on the zip file)  

Notice: If you want use hand gesture and VoxCommando together, start first the "HandGKET.exe" and then VoxCommando, otherwise the gesture software does not start. By using HandGKET the Kinect will work in VoxCommando only as normal microphone.
Use the latest VoxCommando version (2.105 or higher), which you can find here: http://voxcommando.com/downloads.asp and activate in VC ->Options->Kinect tab "Attempt to use Kinect device with Audio Streaming"
