This[^] is what I'm building. There's no screenshots/video in there this week, but there will be a fair bit in there next week, plus a shout out to you for the idea of controlling the mouse cursor this way.
I don't do facial recognition yet, so I can't comment, but as I progress I should be able to get an answer for you. Once I've finished this contest, I'll be looking at the Leap device as well. My ultimate aim is to create an abstraction layer where you drop in the "pipeline" of choice, so you should be able to work with Kinect/Leap/Gesture without relying on a particular vendor. That's a way off yet.

Wow, An image that stores all the information. I am mad about image processing. So there is another reason to follow you closely.
A couple of years back I had done a little similar thing. Not as big as yours.
a) Framework: I used wavelet transform to save data behind images. So I was able to save a 2kb file behind a Png/Bmp image of size say about 60 kb.
b). Once succedded, I created a small xml based database system. So Ideas was to create data and save it in xml and put it behind the image. At the time of rendering, extract it, update of delete or whatever and put it back. It was fun. I had given it a name Icard. ( like vcard  ). So you take a snap of a person and put all his information behind his image. Store and send that image to phone or wherever and decoder will display all the information.
Whether you want or do not want, I will send you the source code of my ImageGrassy project. Which has tons of algorithm and helper functions. And by the way I do take charges. I need a beer when you win  .
So if and when it matters, kind of you can see if you find anything interesting and use it.

By the way, I am on the verge of completing my 18th and mostly the final entry. "Morsify"
The idea is simple encode your gestures to morse code and decode it as text. Great for people with vocal limitations to communicate. American sign language is bit tough at this moment for sdk ( I tried that too, with hand segmentation and applying PCA but failed.  )
So decided that morse code is the way to go. You got to be seeing the video once I complete.
Ok pete, wont prolong the comment. Take care I have to Morsify now. By the way, Can I have your mail ID? I have been replying to this thread only .

Being thirteen and half hours ahead of PST is turning out to be an amazing thing. I have completed my 20th Prototype and trying out a special thing with eyes. Dr Hawkins has been my scientific ideal for long and I am trying to build a text conversion from blink of eyes for assisting paralytic persons.
It has become a habit to send you a small note before and after working with a concept.
I know you have started coding madly and will go through the kind of madness that I experienced for last one month. There is no webcast of the contest from Intel. And not proper keywords are used by all contestants. So I managed to save a list through different searches. You can enjoy at your spare time. There are some good creative submissions.
