Everything worked! The code given during class was very easy to customize. I plugged in an easing code to show a small trail of moving dots as the hands move across the screen. In the hardware I did notice the limitation of the Kinect ranges as the hands move closer than two feet away. Also there are tracking limitations for objects moving at high speeds or fold in on itself.
