There’s a bunch of posts on the site around the Kinect for Windows V2 but as part of getting ready for the Kinect for Windows Hack London;
Dan asked whether I’d help with a few “getting started” materials (beyond the excellent info that’s already in the SDK with samples and so on).
One part of that was putting together the post below;
which is meant to be a way of getting your device set up for Kinect development as quickly as possible.
The next step is to start building out some code and the SDK supports you in doing lots of different things including;
- Building desktop applications in .NET or C++
- Building Windows Store applications in .NET, JavaScript or C++
and I thought I’d put together the same ‘Hello World’ sample in a few of those technologies walking through from scratch what it looks like to put something together which gathers body data from the Kinect for Windows V2 sensor and displays it in a simple way.
Here’s the 3 videos…
Windows Store App in C# with Windows/XAML
Windows Desktop App in C# with WPF
Windows Store App in JavaScript with HTML
Enjoy! and remember, the emphasis here was definitely on ‘quick’ rather than ‘robust’
