I'm making a project for my university, I'm working with kinect and i want to detect the finger tips using microsoft sdk.I made depth segmentation based on the closest object and player so i now have only the hand part in my image. But I have no idea what to do next. I'm trying to get the hand's boundary but not finding the method to do it. so can anyone help me and suggest some usefull ways or ideas to do that. I am using c# and wpf It will be great if anyone can provide a sample code. I only want to detect the index finger and the thumb. Thanks in advance

Candescent NUI is the best project which has done fingertip detection.

It uses Kinect SDK and openni. It does not uses depth data, but just the area around the hand!!
