[en] In this showpiece we demonstrate PetriNect, an instance of a generic layered framework that we have developed for the specification and use of executable models of gestural interaction with virtual objects. The framework is built on top of Petshop and uses ICO models, a variant of high-level Petri nets. PetriNect uses the Kinect as input device for allowing the user to interact gesturally with virtual objects. We illustrate this by means of two simple proof-of-concept prototype applications that we have developed for the purpose of this showpiece: a simple Pong game, and the interaction with a virtual bookshelf.
