My first task in the Visual Cognitive Systems Laboratory is to create a reasonably simple algorithm that will be able to track a hand and detect where it is pointing. The environment will be more or less controlled so the task is not that hard ... pardon, was not that hard.

Well the implementation still needs some (mostly performance related) tweaks ... but the main goal was satisfied. Form here on the possibilities are endless. Anyway, I see that I can attach some nice screenshots when writing about my work ... I will do that more often ;)
