This is because as we begin to exercise our bodies demand for oxygen rises as the need for energy increases, therefore we must breathe at a faster rate in order to supply oxygenated blood

Authentication, Gesture password INTRODUCTION The advent of relatively cheap image and depth sensors has spurred research in the field of object tracking and gesture recognition. One of the more popular devices used to do this type of research is Microsoft’s Kinect, which has sensors that capture both rgb and depth data. Using similar data, researchers have developed algorithms that not only identify humans in a scene, but perform full body tracking; they can infer a person’s skeletal structure in real-time

the idea was introduced. Well in 2012, researchers at the Human Media Lab at Queen’s University in Ontario, Canada made this dream into a creation. Using a couple of XBox Kinect systems and a glass “tube”, they created a way to see an entire person’s body in hologram form with a0 live video feed. They call this holographic creation the “Telehuman” and it is meant to replicate what is seen in Science Fiction movies and shows. The “Telehuman” is a cylindrical “tube” that stands
