Kinesis - build gesture apps. Accessing the kinect in javascript through websockets « Aboutme – blog. Good morning all!
(or evening, night, … depending on when you read this post of course). As you might know, I’ve been working on AIRKinect (as3nui.com) and I’ve got a side project AIRServer aswell (which allows you to setup air as a socket server, including websocket support). Wouldn’t it be fun, to combine these two projects in a demo, so you can access the kinect information through a websocket? That’s exactly what I did. You run a desktop application on your computer, which is responsible for accessing the kinect, and exposing the skeleton information over a websocket.
In this demo, I’m just rendering the skeleton points in a canvas element, using three.js. I’ve uploaded the sources and included binary installers for the desktop application (windows 7, OSX Lion). Using the javascript client, you connect to your ip (if you’re testing on the same ip, 127.0.0.1 should be fine), and you can start dancing in the canvas element :-). Implementations. TUIO hardware support In order to support the further development of the TUIO platform, we are looking for hardware donations of various hardware: iOS and Android tablets, Touchscreen hardware, Windows 7 Multitouch Notebooks, Netbooks and Tablets, MS Surface, Samsung SUR40, Magic Trackpad or any other devices to evaluate their existing or potential TUIO support.

Patricio Gonzalez Vivo. Kinect Core Vision Finger Detection Update. Leap Motion. Kinect Open Source Programming Secrets.
Kinect Open Source Programming Secrets (KOPS) is the only book that explains the official Java wrappers for OpenNI and NITE.
(If you want installation instructions, scroll down this page a little.) The main drawback of using the PrimeSense Java wrappers is their lack of documentation. As I explain in chapter 1, I had to decompile the libraries' JAR files, and work out the correspondences between the Java source and the somewhat better documented C++ OpenNI/NITE APIs. This is why including "secrets" in the book's title isn't too excessive :). This book covers programming topics not found elsewhere.
Early (sometimes very early) draft versions of KOPS's chapters can be downloaded from here (see the links below). If you're looking for Killer Game Programming in Java then it's here. What this Book is Not About I'm concentrating on the Kinect without including chapters explaining OOP concepts such as classes, objects, and inheritance. Dr. FAAST. Install FAAST on your PC. Install FAAST on your PC for full body control and VR applications: Disclaimer: This comprehensive guide of FAAST installation was taken from Institute for Creative Technologies website.
The toolkit of the FAAST was also taken from the same site. By sharing their guide to the community, Kinecthacks.com wishes to promote the value of innovation and creativity with the Micrsoft’s Kinect. All credit for this guide and FAAST downloads belong to the Institute of Creative Technologies. Summary FAAST is middleware to facilitate integration of full-body control with games and VR applications. FAAST is free to use and distribute for research and noncommercial purposes (for commercial uses, please contact us). The preliminary version of FAAST is currently available for Windows only. Installation To use FAAST, you will need to download and install the following software: FAAST should then run out-of-the-box; no additional installation or setup is necessary. Skeleton Usage.

Suma, Belinda Lange, Skip Rizzo, David Krum, and Mark Bolas Project Email Address: faast@ict.usc.edu 32-bit(recommended for most users) 64-bit(for advanced users) Note from Evan Suma, the developer of FAAST: I have recently transitioned to a faculty position at USC, and unfortunately that means I have very limited time for further development of the toolkit. You may also view our online video gallery, which contains videos that demonstrate FAAST’s capabilities, as well as interesting applications that use the toolkit.
