uKinect | This is a project funded by the Department for Business Innovation and Skills (BIS) and the Technology Strategy Board (TSB) and managed by JISC TechDis, a leading UK advisory service on technology and inclusion. Project started May 2011. This represents phase one of a Small Business Research Initiative (SBRI) programme, which encourages technology solutions to specific public sector needs. Gamelab has provided a gesture-recognition communication system for people with verbal impairments as part of this phase 1 SBRI initiative. Our development work has been as much about user engagement as it is about technology application. Common gesture-recognition solutions revolve around a camera or multiple cameras. Our development has provided the genesis of a gesture recognition system for Makaton- which will operates on a finite set of key lexical items supporting basic physical and emotional needs.
