Abstract
The present disclosure describes a method for providing an interactive experience. The method includes illuminating, by an enhancer, an area with light having wavelength invisible to humans. A plurality of image detectors capture at least two images of a person in the area including a portion of the light reflected from the person. A processing element determines a first skeletal feature of the person based on the at least two images. The processing element determines a position characteristic of the first skeletal feature; constructs, from the first skeletal feature, a vector in three dimensions corresponding to the position characteristic; and outputs an interactive effect based on the position characteristic.
