Abstract

KinecDrone enhances our somatic sensation to fly in the sky with Kinect and AR.Drone. A Video stream captured in AR.Drone is transmited to a user's head mounted display. While a user behaves like flying in the sky in a room, he/she can watch the scene captured by flying AR.Drone. Thus, the user feels that he/she is really flying in the sky. Also, the user can control AR.Drone with his/her natural gestures without losing the reality of the feeling that he/she is flying in the sky as if he/she becomes AR.Drone himself/herself. This significantly increases the immersive experiences as flying in the sky.
