Yes, you need to install the SDK, but its not a browser plugin. Gets installed as a native app and runs as a background service.

User will install a small package which sits in the background.
If a web app is using the JS SDK, then it will work in any modern browser.

#17Anyone else wish Apple would take the lead in replacing the mouse with something like this?
Build a couple motion sensors/webcams into the monitor, be it a widescreen desktop monitor or a laptop, arrange them in a triangle or whatever layout is optimal for 3D movement sensing, then build Kinect-like software into the OS so that you can control your computer with hand gestures rather than the mouse.
A 'design is how it works' company like Apple could rethink the entire UI/UX based on this. For example, it may be possible to get rid of the mouse pointer and interact with UI elements more directly, like with tablets and smartphones, just without having to touch the screen, and perhaps with a Z-axis added.
Anyway, just daydreaming...

#18This is a really cool service/product. I have always wanted to do something more with the kinect, like attach it to a robot like the MIT people did or something like Minority Report. I'll definitely use it and let you know if I have any questions or concerns. Keep it up!

Thanks Tommy, we love it that you liked it. The urge of doing something more drives us all.
