“…In both cases, the size of the interaction media is unsuitable for a direct touch‐based interaction. In this sense, gestural interaction can be seen as a relevant part of the Internet of things (IoT) vision, which includes the ways users interact with the augmented environment they are in. As a consequence, Kinect‐like devices may nowadays be considered part of the broad IoT landscape and represent one of the key enablers for gesture recognition and human‐environment interaction …”

SummaryIn the last decades, we have witnessed a growing interest toward touchless gestural user interfaces. Among other reasons, this is due to the large availability of different low-cost gesture acquisition hardware (the so-called "Kinect-like devices"). As a consequence, there is a growing need for solutions that allow to easily integrate such devices within actual systems. In this paper, we present KIND-DAMA, an open and modular middleware that helps in the development of interactive applications based on gestural input. We first review the existing middlewares for gestural data management. Then, we describe the proposed architecture and compare its features against the existing similar solutions we found in the literature. Finally, we present a set of studies and use cases that show the effectiveness of our proposal in some possible real-world scenarios.
