Kinect, Dan, Tina, Clint, a Turret, Nerf Gun and some Coding4Fun code. Need I say more?
Coding4Fun Kinect Turret
From Xbox Live, here is the Coding4Fun Kinect Turret! It uses the Kinect for Windows SDK and uses a combination of skeleton tracking and depth data to defend your office! The project took only a few hours to build and code up.
Everything used was random parts laying around in my office. I'd recommend swapping out the pan system as what I used was borrowed from the Windows Phone t-shirt cannon we used at Mix. You can get away with chances are normal pan since you don't need to move around 50 pounds of t-shirt cannon goodness.

This just takes you back to the homepage. Then you are faced with more searching for a video with the title "Kinect Turret" and it's no where to be found. Can you all please put a direct link to the video demoing the Kinect Turret? Or is there no video?
The video is still in process. I was hoping it would be out by now, but....
Since the code is available (the important part) I thought it still a good thing to share, especially since I've not seen this shared anywhere else yet, and that it was just too cool...
Sorry about that guys... I should have made that clear in the post.
Video is now available at http://channel9.msdn.com/Shows/TechWithTina/Use-a-Nerf-Gun-Kinect-Skeletal-Tracking-and-a-Turret-to-protect-your-office
VERY COOL. I will now go by a Konnect. Every since it was first releasted, I have wanted to develope for it.
