Using a Nerf gun and Kinect to play House Of The Dead

 This is a quick and simple mod to combine a Kinect sensor and a modded Nerf gun for playing 'rail' shooter games like House Of The Dead 3 on your Windows 7 PC. For this set-up I am using a Nerf Finder EX-10 foam dart gun, a 5 button wireless mouse (this will be dismantled for parts) and a PC enabled Kinect sensor.

Step 1 Connecting the Kinect sensor to your PC

 The first step is to connect a Kinect sensor to your PC and install a collection of tools, which will enable you to control the Windows mouse pointer by moving your hand in-front of the sensor. The following link contains instructions on installing the open source Windows Kinect drivers, middleware and the FAAST mouse control toolkit:  http://projects.ict.usc.edu/mxr/faast/ .
