Kinect Powered RC Car

Students at the University of Bundeswehr in Munich have used the Kinect not with an Xbox. But with car?

Michael Schweitzer and Michael Himmelsbach (2 students at Bundeswehr) have made a Kinect powered RC car using software from DARPA. The cool part is the car can detect and move around obstacles in front of it. I think this is a breakthrough for us lazy people who don't feel like driving an rc car. Now you can just put it on autopilot

See the car in action in the video below:
