PC Kinect

[ShadesWolf]

Has anybody tried to link there PC to the kinect yet?

[Lemur]

It has been done (http://www.pcgamer.com/2011/01/10/10-amazing-kinect-hacks/), but as yet there is no official support (http://www.1up.com/news/official-pc-kinect-support-coming). (Although support is coming "at the right time," whatever that means.)

Wrong Lemur :veryangry2:, Microsoft recently released an official SDK for private use.
One for commercial use is to follow later.

There's even an official page (http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/redmond/projects/kinectsdk/).

And in case you don't believe Microsoft, here is a link to a news article (http://www.crunchgear.com/2011/06/16/microsoft-launches-kinect-windows-sdk/).

My bad, apologies.

My bad, apologies.

I really got you with the angry smiley, didn't I? :laugh4:

I'm curious what people and developers will do with this, don't have a Kinect myself though.
