FAAST is middleware to facilitate integration of full-body control with games and VR applications using OpenNI-compliant depth sensors (currently the PrimeSensor and the Microsoft Kinect). The toolkit incorporates a custom VRPN server to stream the user's skeleton over a network, allowing VR applications to read the skeletal joints as trackers using any VRPN client. FAAST can also emulate keyboard input triggered by body posture and specific gestures. This allows the user add custom body-based control mechanisms to existing off-the-shelf games that do not provide official support for depth sensors.

We had access to Panasonic D-Imager for few days and created few demos. So sad there was only XP Drivers and no any SDK, so we implement D-Fusion support in CCV to make it work like multitouch device, and small socket server for sending raw D-Imager data to flash.
