Revision as of 16:52, 6 December 2011
The Microsoft® XBOX 360 Kinect is a motion controller. It projects a pattern with infrared light and calculates a depth image using a camera. It also has a color camera and four microphones. The Y axis of the sensor is remote controllable with an in-build motor. The color of the LED is settable by software as well.
About
Software
Apps (ready to run)
- Cocoa freenect App (OS X) by Robert Pointon
- TUIO Kinect lets you define a depth range where multiple blobs can be detected. No actual depth information can be extracted.
Frameworks and Libraries
Depth image
- openkinect.org Drivers, Installation
- pix_freenect for Pd (binaries work without any compiling)
- fux_kinect Object for Pd
- ofxKinect openFramworks Kinect integration
Skeleton data
- OpenNI
- Pd-LA Install Kinect on OS X 10.6.x
- install openNI kinect drivers and NITE on OS X 10.6
- install openNI kinect drivers and NITE on gentoo Linux
- OSCeleton takes kinect skeleton data from the OpenNI framework and spits out the coordinates of the skeleton's joints via OSC messages. These can can then be used on your language / framework of choice. Needs openNI.
- Pure Data patch to receive and visualize the skeleton data from osceleton Needs OSCeleton (which needs OpenNI)
- how to install openNI on OS X using macports and visualize the skeleton in Max/MSP (or Pd)
- skeleton data in Quartz Composer via Max/MSP
Running depth image and skeleton data on workstation Rafael
change user of the computer to admin (Apple Menu: logout user/User abmelden). Make sure Kinect is connected.
Depth image in Pd
- open Pd
- open pix_freenect-help.pd in Folder kinect on harddrive Rafael Data RAID
- open gemwin and activate the accel toggle
Skeleton Data in Pd
- open the terminal and Pd
- in the terminal type: cd /Volumes/Rafael\ Data\ RAID/kinect/Sensebloom-OSCeleton OR: type: cd and drag the folder Sensebloom-OSCeleton in Folder kinect on harddrive Rafael Data RAID in the terminal
- Enter. type ./osceleton, then press Enter again
- open OSCeleton.pd from Folder pd-skeleton in Folder kinect on harddrive Rafael Data RAID with Pd
