Kinect 1414: This is the original kinect and works with the library documented on this page in the Processing 3.0 beta series.Some additional notes about different models: Most modern machines do, but if you are unsure you can find out more here for Mac OS X. Finally, you’ll also want to make sure your computer supports USB 3. Don’t be thrown off, although it says windows, this will allow you to connect it to your mac via USB. You also probably need the Kinect Adapter for Windows. However, if you have a kinect v1 that came with an XBox, it will not include the Kinect Sensor Power Supply. I believe this one comes with the power supply so you do not need a separate adapter listed next. What hardware do I need?įirst you need a “stand-alone” kinect.
#KINECT FOR WINDOWS V2 ON MAC FOR MAC OS X#
However, if you’re on a Mac and all you want is raw data from the Kinect, you are in luck! This library uses libfreenect and libfreenect2 open source drivers to access that data for Mac OS X ( windows support coming soon). To do skeleton tracking you’ll need to use Thomas Lengling’s windows-only Kinect v2 processing libray. detecting a model of a person and tracking his/her movements). However, once that information is on your computer, lots more can be done like “skeleton” tracking (i.e. The Kinect sensor itself only measures color and depth. This makes a variety of computer vision problems like background removal, blob detection, and more easy and fun! Meaning for every pixel seen by the sensor, the Kinect measures distance from the sensor. However, in addition to providing an RGB image, it also provides a depth map. The Microsoft Kinect sensor is a peripheral device (designed for XBox and windows PCs) that functions much like a webcam. Getting Started with Kinect and Processing
