FT bot & Kinect smart sensor

FT bot controlled by a Kinect smart sensor.
This instead of a game controller device.

Hello,
I have a Kinect for Windows and also the same (or very equal) idea like you.
The connection between Kinect and Fischertechnik offers many possiblities.
I am happy to see, that someone had the same idea.
However, my Kinect + FT project is in progress, are you also working at Kinect with FT or was it 'only' an idea?
If yes, what did you mean by "FT bot"?

The Robot Operating System supports PrimeSense Sensors (like Kinect) to control a robot.
The Sensor there is mainly used to generate Pointclouds.
