So you are unable to look directly in the camera while your are looking at the screen.

DirectLook was developed at the University of Applied Science Darmstadt, Germany (Hochschule Darmstadt).
We are all Computer Science students and we developed this over a time of two semesters.
Prof. E. Hergenroether and Prof. J. Wietzke from our department supported us over this time.

After the checkout, there are a few zip files in the dep-folder. Just extract these files there and after this all dependencies are usable.
For connecting to the device, you have to install OpenNI and SensorKinect, in this order. We also serve the working installers in the dep-folder.
