The next time you look through a window display, you might just be able to leave a comment behind. After all its all about interaction with customers for stores and taking cue, Nordstrom’s flagship store in downtown Seattle have unveiled an advanced interactive window display, which integrates a Kinect sensor for Xbox 360, a computer and a projector. This allows passer-bys or customers to draw and doodle anything they want, using just the motion of their hands in front of the glass which appears in lighted letters.



The project was influenced by a light-writing project Nordstrom did for its Spring Designer catalog and will be exhibited up till April 11. Wonder if the store encourages suggestions like “SALE PLEASE.”
