A 3D low-cost product scanner (using Microsoft Kinect)
http://manctl.com/ shows me how its low-priced 3D scanner, named "Skanect" works. What does it do? While the Kinect is moved around, it captures new views of an object or a room and automatically computes a metric 3D model, in real-time. Skanect can also detects planes, such as floors and walls, and perform automatic ground alignment.
Skanect's output can be imported into popular 3d software such as Meshlab or Blender for further examination, measurement and refining.

Styku lets you scan your body and get proper fitting clothes
http://www.styku.com/business/ The future is here. You can use a Microsoft Kinect scanner and Styku to scan your body and get your size. It's very accurate and it will be showing up in some stores soon. This company is part of the Techstars' Kinect incubator in Seattle, which I recently visited to see the latest companies coming out.

Turn a wall into a 3D touchscreen
http://www.ubi-interactive.com/ turns your wall into a huge iPad-like surface. This startup, which was part of Seattle's Techstars/Microsoft Kinect incubator class of 2012, turns a Microsoft Kinect and a projected image into a touch surface. Here CEO Anup Chathoth shows it off to me.

Kinect startup helps surgeons work without touching a computer (remains sterile)
If you are a surgeon you can't touch anything while operating on a patient. Why not? Because if you touch something like a keyboard or an iPad's screen you need to rescrub in. This wastes tons of money and time. Learn more at http://gestsure.com/
This was one of the companies in the Techstars Kinect program in Seattle sponsored by Microsoft.
Sorry for the bad audio, they had a really loud air conditioner in the room and I couldn't escape the noise with my microphones.
