Your “Hacked Kinect Does A Cool Thing” Video of the Day

Hacked Kinect: It does puppets.  It took us a second view to really notice, but the peripheral is picking up the performer’s movements with great fidelity.  It’s just a bit tricky to tell because of what we assume is processing lag.  Presumably that will get worked out soon, and then we can all look forward to a new Sesame Street character who teaches kids about being safe in virtual environments.

What?  Wasn’t that the first idea that popped into your head, too?
