Working with multiple Kinect v1 sensors is very difficult because of the IR interference between the sensors. Based on what I read on this gamastura article, Microsoft got rid of the interference ...

I have been looking at the Kinect for Windows release notes and features, since I want to incorporate gesture recognition in my project as well. At the above page, the first line mentions that "Th...

I need to find out the front measure of chest for any individual using Kinect while facing the camera. My current solution is: When a MultiFrameSource arrives get the color (to display the body i...

I'm new about opencv(c++) and kinect. I try to take a video image with c++ from kinect. I search everywhere but I didn't find anything. Because people are made using openNI or OpenKinect. I don't w...

In my application I am getting the depth frame similar to the depth frame retrieved from Depth Basics Sample. What I don't understand is, why are there discrete levels in the image? I don't know wh...

For example, I am standing in-front of my Kinect. The Kinect can identify the joints, and it will expose them as a data structure. Till this point I am clear. So, can we define the height as the d...

I have collected a bunch of videos using Kinect for windows 2 using the kinect studio with file extension .xef. Now I want to write a program to load data from them and just playback or save as an...

Microsoft state that the field of view angles for the Kinect are 43 degrees vertical and 57 horizontal (stated here) . Given these, can we calculate the intrinsic parameters i.e. focal point and ce...

I have a C++ project, where I am using OpenCV and Libfreenect. I do not want to include something as big and heavy as OpenNI and create OpenCV installation dependency in the process. I want to use ...

Just wondering if anyone knows if there is an SDK or something to access the device used in the new lumia 950 for windows hello - something like the kinect API for 3D detection?

I have set up a Kinect device and written a simple program that reads the stream to a QImage using OpenNI 2.0. I have set up skeleton tracking with NiTE 2.0, so I have access to the coordinates of ...

I am trying to combine DiscreteGestureBasics project which provided with the kinect sdk tool and with RecordAndPlaybackBasics. RecordAndPlaybackBasics code has two main methods playback a .xef file...

I have recently started using the Kinect SDK 2.0 and am focusing on a zoom and pan functionality, as in the Control Basics-WPF sample. I have got the zoom and pan functionality up and running. The...

I've recently started hacking on my Kinect and I want to remove the depth shadow. The shadow is caused by the IR emitter being positioned slightly to the side of the camera, so any close object wil...

I am trying to track my hand based on the area using Media Flow Tracker but the bounding box keeps increasing after some time. It works properly for the first 10 seconds or so. Here's a code snipp...

I am trying to calculate the height of a person using Kinect. Here is how I calculate the height (this code is not very sophisticated, it is only for testing purposes): double h2s = Math.Sqrt(Math...

Currently I am working on a project using Kinect which requires me to know the where the person is looking at that time, for which I figured out I need to find the line of sight of that person. Ri...

Where do they differ? What are the advantages of choosing libfreenect or OpenNI+SensorKinect, for example, over the Official SDK, and vice-versa? What are the disadvantages?

I am trying to develop a face recognition app for fun using Kinect for Xbox 360. I would like to figure out which SDK and version of Visual Studio should I use for best access to the Kinect.

I just have a confusion in understanding the difference between the Active IR image and depth Image of Kinect v2. Can anyone tell me the what special features Active IR image have as compare to dep...

I have been working a self project in image processing and robotics where instead robot as usual detecting colors and picking out the object, it tries to detect the holes(resembling different polyg...

We captured a 3d Image using Kinect with OpenNI Library and got the rgb and depth images in the form of OpenCV Mat using this code. main() { OpenNI::initialize(); puts( "Kinect initialization.....

I have a byte array representing a greyscale image that I would like to use with openCV in C#, using the Emgu wrapper. I am trying to figure out how to convert this into an Emu.CV.Image without fir...

I'm working with kinect, and I need to save RAW depth image. This means that I shouldn't save it with a conversion to 8 bit (that is what imwrite is doing!) but save it as 16 bit, without have any ...

This programming guide implies that this is possible, so I figure what the heck. Right now, though, it doesn't work. Host OS is Vista 64-bit, VMWare Workstation 6.5.3 is running Windows 7 Enterpr...
