Does this replace IWB's ?

Anyone seen this software and set up to use with a kinect https://www.ubi-interactive.com/

There's a few to many caveats there I think to be able to make a judgement, without seeing it actually working: https://www.ubi-interactive.com/faq/

 

There are two main modes/setups for Ubi. When the Kinect is set 31.5-47” from the display, it operates in finger mode, where the sensor detects each finger as a touch point. When the Kinect is set 47-82” away from the display, Ubi operates in hand mode, where the sensor detects each hand as a touch point.

 

It's certainly not a 'one size fits all situations' replacement, I don't see it as being as flexible as the varied IWB options. Plus no pen input.

You will find many products coming out the woodwork like this in the near future. Interactive is a rapidly growing market so there will always be designing to make it a cheaper option compared to interactive boards and interactive projectors.

 

I have not tried this one so i can not really comment but im confident to think it will not be as responsive as a interactive board or projector.
