Microsoft Innovation Center Torino,
Arrow and BEPS Engineering
developed a proof-of-concept (POC) solution for public
advertisements: the Kinect-Azure POC, an
Intelligent Systems case study.
The current solution is focused on a real estate scenario, but
the same technologies can be applied in different application
domains.
The system is composed by three elements:
- A Kinect for Windows sensor which enables a Natural
User Experience by means of simple hand and body gestures
- A Windows Embedded-powered device that runs the
domain-specific application, manages the Kinect device and connects
to the Cloud
- A powerful and flexible cloud backend, leveraging the
Windows Azure infrastructure, which manages application
contents and enables Business Intelligent analysis.
A short
demo video of the working solution is available on YouTube.
Further technical details can be found in this presentation:
Advanced Advertising System POC.
