The original Twins homeplate at MOA-- finding it was not easy! A finished column Me working on Experiment Two Loren's program working with the Kinect to identify human body parts and incorpoate them into VR Me in the HMD, looking at my real arm in VR! Take a look at the screen in the back; Ella can see her actual arm in VR! A closer look.
