Project Prague – Hand Gestures SDK

Established: November 20, 2014

Project Prague is a cutting-edge, easy-to-use SDK that creates more intuitive and natural experiences by allowing users to control and interact with technologies through hand gestures. Based on extensive research, it equips developers and UX designers with the ability to quickly design and implement customized hand gestures into their apps.

The SDK enables you to define your desired hand poses using simple constraints built with plain language. Once a gesture is defined and registered in your code, you will get a notification when your user does the gesture, and can select an action to assign in response.

Using Project Prague, you can enable your users to intuitively control videos, bookmark webpages, play music, send emojis, or summon a digital assistant. You can even make everyday productivity and communication programs easier to use.

Using Project Prague requires an Intel RealSense SR300 camera or a Microsoft Kinect v2 camera.
