NUI-based Floor Navigation – A Case Study

In this paper, we describe a nui-based application using a Microsoft Kinect. The system displays a digital represen- tation of a university building, where users can navigate virtually through contactless gestures. Users can step up and couple their hand with a virtual mouse cursor to navi- gate through the program such that hand movements to the right lead to cursor movements to the right for example. We present an evaluation of the system, which is based on a 100’ day operation by logging 2.000 user sessions.
