Physical Rehab via Kinect for Xbox 360: make it happen in Haiti!
Posted by Administrator – May 17, 2011
I love Vectorform because:
- We built a demo for physical rehabilitation via Kinect for Xbox 360
- That demo stole the show at a tech demo day by Kaiser Permanente focused on gamification because it presented a fun way to support physical rehab and exercise for kids, and tracked response accuracy
- The mastermind behind using Kinect for literacy in South Africa made us aware of the Haitian Amputee Mother’s Alliance
- Asked if we could possibly help, I presented their work providing prosthetic limbs and rehabilitative services for victims of the earthquake to my boss, who gave me a two-word answer:
- Do It.

To communicate or not to communicate…?
Posted by Vito Dimercurio – August 12, 2010…the Windows Phone 7 SDK makes this a pretty easy question to answer. I mean, sure, it’s a phone – but how many ways do we stay connected to the world around us these days? To that end, we decided to throw together a couple of simple prototypes to see how easy it was to build the roots of those basic apps everyone’s going to want… The ones that use Facebook and Twitter.
Simple implementation of the Silverlight Facebook API.
