Driving Quake Live with a kinect
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uvP2u2yOcNw It uses openkinect, python bindings and web.py on the linux to expose nearest point data. The imac runs Quake and a custom java program that calls the linux web server. It uses java.awt.Robot to generate mouse and key stroke events.
Sorry about the resolution but I'll try to upload a better one later.
Openframeworks, box2d, opencv and ofxkinect
This uses the depth map to determine the closest point to the kinect. It uses this point to draw a line that is part of the box2d world. This line can then be moved around by moving your hand or a magic wand (in my case a roll of string!!) so that other objects with in the 2d world can be manipulated. Works well. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pR46sXjEtzE
Openframeworks, Box2d and opencv
Uses the blobs generated by opencv contours to generate a box2d object to manibulate other box2d objects. Works OK but filtering the blobs is quite error prone http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NlrKcpUPtwM

Actually...this isn't using OpenKinect. I'm using CL NUI at the moment which is in C#, but I will switch over to libfreenect c++ version on Mac soon...
