Nirav Patel is literally making things with a wave of his hand. Harnessing a hacked Kinect, he has written a program for “Gestural 3D Printing”. He calls the project “inane and irrelevant” but it is actually a perfect, shining example of creative ingenuity!

Nirav, his Kinect, and his RepRap will be at Maker Faire Bay Area, May 21 & 22. There you can meet him and see his amazing programs in action.
