• Ikkos uses algorithms to teach movements.
• Jintronix uses Kinect and 3D gaming to improve rehabilitative therapies.
• Kimetric is in stealth mode.
• Manctl made a cheap 3D scanner using Kinect.
• Nconnex is using the Kinect to rethink healthcare, e-commerce, and education. One of the products lets you try furniture before you buy it.
