KinectMotion

This repository contains tools to make Kinect devices to stream their data in JSON format through WebSocket. It gives you full power to utilize Kinect device and integrate it easily to any program. See examples directory for example integrations.

Requirements

kinect-motion-server will work only in Windows. This is because I explorered different integrations and many them were buggy and prone to noise. Microsoft's Kinect SDK interface is a clear winner since it is fast and can output very good quality frames.

• Kinect V2 with Microsoft's SDK. You can download SDK here https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=44561.
• Windows 8.1 or later.
• Ability to connect and power Kinect from USB port. There are official ways and mods that you can do yourself.

How to get it running?

0. Connect Kinect V2 device to computer.
1. Compile kinect-motion-server.
2. Start kinect-motion-server.
3. Open examples/complex.html in a web browser that supports WebSockets.
4. Build something awesome.
