Joined the Windows 8 group tonight for a basic overview of Unity.
Very interesting stuff. Good speech. You can reach him @ www.AllMobileEverything.com Check out his speeches.

There was a problem starting in-app speech recognition. The details are provided below.
You will need to accept the speech privacy policy

Startup VS as Admin, then :

Null reference exception, added null handling in:
MainPage.xaml.cs : private async void InitializeRecognizer()

case AsyncStatus.Error:
//Added null handling.
if (operation != null && operation.ErrorCode != null)
{
hResult = operation.ErrorCode.HResult;
message = operation.ErrorCode.Message;
}
MessageBox.Show(String.Format(
AppResources.SpeechRecognitionErrorTemplate,
hResult,
message));

You may not need all this, but this is how we will be setting up the new laptop’s for demo.

Kinect, Mount and Leap are all very inexpensive so any route should be fine.

Until leap is supporting dll’s past 4.0  I’ll be putting out rebuilds of the SDK.

All DLL’s should be located here now.

This is an updated version of the codeproject project by Meshack Musundi found here : (ConsoleLeapMouse) http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/550336/Leap-Motion-Move-Cursor

Updated version of code with my .net 4.5.1dll’s

Point to this instead of 3.5  or  4.0

Enjoy!

Key phrases: Repeating code on delay, pause without thread sleep, delaying code

c#

Usage: var dir = Directory.GetCurrentDirectory();

var file = SoundByName(sound);

var actual = Path.Combine(dir, file);

SoundPlayer player = new SoundPlayer(actual);

player.Play();

if (milliseconds > 0) { DelayFactory.DelayAction(milliseconds, () => player.Stop()); }

DelayFactory.DelayActionRepeat(milliseconds, () => player.Stop());

Code:
namespace ALineOfCode.Community.AugmentedLibraries.Common.Factory
{
public static class DelayFactory
{
public static void DelayAction(int millisecond, Action action)
{
var timer = new DispatcherTimer();
timer.Tick += delegate
{
DispatcherHelper.CheckBeginInvokeOnUI(async () =>
{
action.Invoke();
timer.Stop();
});
};
timer.Interval = TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(millisecond);
timer.Start();
}

public static void DelayActionRepeat(int millisecond, Action action)
{
var timer = new DispatcherTimer();
timer.Tick += delegate
{
DispatcherHelper.CheckBeginInvokeOnUI(async () =>
{
action.Invoke();
});
};
timer.Interval = TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(millisecond);
timer.Start();
}
}
}
