In all seriousness, this quick 1 minute teaser video provides a brief glimpse into this incredibly creative and ingenious way to test your own security systems for vulnerabilities using Kinect interpreted natural gestures in tandem with Metasploit Framework and the Blender game engine.

The idea is to hack into your own systems while in a 3D, first person shooter style environment that interfaces with the Kinect sensor. The game engine was built using Blender and looks to be one of the most pleasing ways of uncovering your own systems architectural/networking vulnerabilities.

Hacking with a hacked Kinect. Gotta love it!"

As the posts suggest that the software is at a pre-apha quality state meaning that some libraries need to be improved in order to boost performance and features but it's a start none the less."

Submission + - Kinect Tangible Table Prototype (kinect-hacks.com)

baxpace writes: The first open source prototype of a tanbgible table using the Microsoft Kinect sensor. The hack is essentially a proof of concept that can serve a multitude of purposes including a real-time analysis on urban models.

The program uses the Kinect point cloud which is mapped onto a flat surface. The upper layer of the point cloud will apply a colour to anything that is placed on the table and is recognized by the Kinect depth sensor. Every object that is placed on the table is detected automatically and in turn becomes trackable.
