Drawing with Kinect

For my Interactive Arts class, I created a Max/MSP patch that allowed me to draw in the air using the Kinect. You'd think I would spend most of my time on this project developing the motion detection, but that was done for me with Synapse. Instead, I spent most of my time developing a state machine that would allow me to calibrate and enter in and out of draw modes.

My code should hopefully be self-explanatory. Click on the screenshots to see a larger version.
