I'm selling the source code + rights of a software which rivals Microsoft's Kinect...

Long story short: You've probably heard of MS Kinect, which lets you control some Xbox games with gestures. The problem:

  • It works on limited amount of games;
  • 97$.
  • Using Leap Motion and so needs to be controlled with weird gestures.

My software:

  • Should work on 99% of games+;
  • Control it with normal gesture: "human shooting gestures" means shooting, stopping means 'stop', walking means 'walk in the game' etc, etc.

If you need demo + more info, pls. PM or email: perte@abv.bg

Basically, I am planning to sell the technology to big companies, but if the process takes too slow...months and if they want me to make additional changes - I may decide to sell it for even $500 or less.

Not so much as a YouTube demo? Come on, be serious.

Thanks,

Would it kill you to post the links to your videos publicly? I'm not sure everyone wants to PM or e-mail you.

Who needs Kinect (like) software in times of VR?

Most people can't afford VR hardware. I suspect there will be a market for intermediate approaches like this for quite some time. (Interesting read: http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2016-09-23-vr-there-will-be-blood)

Still, if this person isn't willing to share demos of their tech publicly, this looks like snake oil.

You don't specify the currency. It's a big world.

Leap Motion is commercial software requiring a paid commercial license. Are you a relicenser or are you trying to sell an add-on to something that already provides what you're providing, but at an extra cost?

The problem with using standard webcams for motion capturing is the huge latency (can also be seen in the video) which makes this mostly useless.

^ The videos are edited. The 2 cameras should be synchronized which means one can make it appear that the character is shooting BEFORE the person makes gun gesture...but the point wasn't to make fake made up videos of course hence the "delay".

Several more things:

1. Yes, the www.bandicam.com watermark was forgotten...

2. The low fps is only bandicam/capturing issue not something related to the software making 2002 NFS run slow.

I meant $97 USD of course, not AUD nor CAD.

No, I am trying to be standalone product - that's the goal, not some overpriced hardware.
