Stephen Howell, Computing lecturer with the Institute of Technology in Tallaght visited us on Wednesday 29 May to show how the Microsoft Kinect can be programmed with Scratch. [Photos below]. It was a fascinating evening for everyone, including parents!
Kinect2Scratch was developed by Stephen Howell. It is available at http://scratch.saorog.com
To get an idea of what Stephen does, have a look at any of these videos:
