Kinect live
A Kinect, a laptop and a projector, and the people in front of it become the show: silhouettes, skeletons, water, fire and 79 interactive scenes. Hang it over the floor and the dance floor itself answers every step.

Facing the crowd
People made of light
Point the Kinect at the room and everyone in view is drawn in real time on the GPU, in the house colours or your own. Nothing is a recording: it is the people dancing right now.
- Silhouettes, skeletons, outlines, auras, holograms and X-ray
- Pixel, voxel, halftone and glitch bodies; fire, smoke and electric
- Echoes and colour trails that follow every move
- Nothing mirrors people back at themselves: no faces, no copies
Over the dance floor
The floor answers
Hang the Kinect from the ceiling looking straight down and project onto the floor. Every dancer becomes a tracked shape with a position and a height, and the floor reacts where they stand.
- Liquid and neon water with real waves, ink drops, caustics, a gold pool
- An LED dance floor, hex tiles, lava, step ripples and footprints
- Claim the tiles, territories, heat maps and constellations between people
- Learn the empty floor once, and everything closer counts as a person
What it does
79 scenes on one plug
Built for our own second floor, where the projector looks down at the dancers. Everything runs on the GPU in a browser tab; a small bridge program talks to the Kinect.
Water and fluids
A real wave simulation every move drops stones into: liquid floor, neon water, ripple rings, bodies in water, liquid metal.
Liquid floorCausticsInk dropsShockwaves
Floors
LED dance floor, glowing carpet, hex floor, lava, light pools, bent grid, zen sand and dunes under people's feet.
LED floorHexLavaZen sand
Between people
Constellations, territories, heat maps, gravity grids, star lensing, metaballs and laser grids drawn from where everyone is.
Gestures fire the show
Hands up, a jump, a crowd gathering, the room's energy or someone stepping into the centre can fire a flash, an object flash or confetti, and with VJ 3D open, the console's own drops.
Hands upJumpCrowdEnergyCentre
Effects on top
The VJ console's effect library over the scene: glow, colour, distortion, glitch and light, minus anything that would mirror or duplicate a person.
Fit any projection
Move, scale, rotate, flip and crop the picture to the screen or the floor, with a calibration grid and a circular portal shape for a round floor.
Listens too
The Kinect's own microphone drives the pulse of the scenes, so the floor breathes with the music as well as the dancers.
Set up in one line
On Windows, one command in PowerShell installs Python, the Kinect drivers and the bridge, and starts it. A diagnose command says what is wrong if the Kinect does not show up.
What you need
The kit
- A Kinect
- Kinect v2 (Xbox One) with its PC adapter, or a Kinect 360 with its power supply.
- A laptop
- Windows for full skeletons (Kinect SDK 2.0 or 1.8). On macOS and Linux, body shapes from the depth camera.
- A projector or a screen
- On the wall facing the crowd, or hung over the dance floor.
- A browser
- Chrome or Edge, where the scenes are drawn.
With VJ 3D
Better together
- One laptop, two tabs
- VJ 3D on the main screen, the Kinect on the floor projector.
- The crowd plays the drops
- A raised hand fires PANJ FLASH; a jump fires OBJECT FLASH on the main screen.
- One price for both
- The bundle is cheaper than the two apart.
Made in a club
Our second floor runs on it
The Kinect plugin was built for Panjgoosheh nights, where a projector looks down at the dancers and the floor lights up under them. It is played in front of a crowd before every update reaches you.

How it works
On the floor tonight
Make a studio account
An email and a password. It is yours alone: you do not need to be a Panjgoosheh member, and it is not a membership.
Pay card to card or with TON
Card to card: an exact amount to the club's card, matched by the bank's text within a minute or two. TON: an exact comment, found on the chain. No forms to wait on.
Open it and play
Your studio opens the software in the browser the moment the payment lands. Paying again adds the days to the end of what you have.
Questions
Before you plug in
Which Kinect do I need?
A Kinect v2 (Xbox One, with the PC adapter) gives the best tracking. A Kinect 360 works too. On Windows both give full skeletons; on macOS and Linux the plugin finds people as body shapes from the depth camera.
Is anyone filmed or recorded?
No. The Kinect's picture is turned into shapes on your own laptop and drawn on the screen; nothing is uploaded or stored. No scene shows a face.
How hard is the setup?
On Windows, one PowerShell command installs everything and starts the bridge. Your studio shows the command with a copy button, and a second one that tells you what is wrong if the Kinect does not show up.
Do I need VJ 3D as well?
No, the Kinect plugin runs on its own. With VJ 3D open on the same laptop, gestures can also fire the console's drops; the bundle has both for less.
Do I need to be a Panjgoosheh member?
No. The studio is open to everyone, with an account of its own that has nothing to do with club membership.
