This pile of sand producing terrain powered by an Xbox One Kinect.

I've been that means to share this for a while. I went to the St. Louis Aquarium a pair weeks in the past and I assumed this was the best factor ever. I noticed a couple of clips right here and there about this pile of sand being projected right down to generate bits of terrain primarily based on the altitude of the sand pile, and truthfully I feel it's fairly cool. What's even cooler is should you lookup, you possibly can see that it's all powered by an Xbox One Kinect sensor pointing straight down on the sand pile, reforming the terrain in actual time because the sand pile adjustments. I truthfully wanna be taught this magic, it's freakin' superior.

(If I picked the incorrect aptitude for this publish, I tremendously apologize, please don't take away it as a result of I couldn't discover the place else to publish this…)
