Executive Summary

Smart Glass will be a spin off of the original Magic Mirror developed by Michael Teeuw. The team plans to build a setup that is very similar to his but take it a step further and implement motion control by using an Xbox Kinect. We currently have found a way to access some of the functionality associated with the Kinect such as IR distance and the camera itself. We were able to implement OpenKinect in order to reach these features. The problem we are running into right now is the image recognition aspect. We are attempting to install OpenCV but have run into multiple problems, causing us to search in other places for our solution.

TODO: Keep this updated

Give two sentences for a brief introduction of the project.

Give two sentences telling what works.

Give two sentences telling what isn't working.

End with a two sentence conclusion.

The sentence count is approximate and only to give an idea of the expected length.

Packaging

If you have hardware, consider Small Build, Big Execuition for ideas on the final packaging.

Installation Instructions

Give step by step instructions on how to install your project.

  • Include your github path as a link like this to the read-only git site: https://github.com/MarkAYoder/gitLearn.
  • Be sure your README.md is includes an up-to-date and clear description of your project so that someone who comes across you git repository can quickly learn what you did and how they can reproduce it.

Highlights

Here is where you brag about what your project can do.

Include a YouTube demo.

Theory of Operation

Give a high level overview of the structure of your software. Are you using GStreamer? Show a diagram of the pipeline. Are you running multiple tasks? Show what they do and how they interact.

Work Breakdown

List the major tasks in your project and who did what.

Also list here what doesn't work yet and when you think it will be finished and who is finishing it.

Future Work

Suggest addition things that could be done with this project.
