Kinect Architecture

Kinect SDK Drivers, for using a Kinectsensordevice with a Windows-based PC. API and deviceinterfaces, together with technicaldocumentation for developers. Source code samples. Documentation for creativelyexploringnaturaluserinterface (NUI) possibilities for non-commercial use.

What you get Highly performant and robust skeletal tracking capabilities determining the body positions of one or two persons moving within the Kinect field of view The latest advances in audio processing, with sophisticated acoustic noise and echo cancellation Depth data, which provides the distance of an object from the Kinect camera raw audio and image data

Requirements Hardware Kinect for Xbox 360 sensor Computer with a dual-core, 2.66-GHz or faster processor Windows 7–compatiblegraphics card thatsupports DirectX® 9.0c capabilities 2-GB RAM (4-GB RAM recommended) Software Windows 7 (x86 or x64) Visual Studio 2010 Express (or other 2010 edition) Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 C++, C# or VB

Power Supply forKinect/XBox Bundle

Developing with the SDK

Raw sensor streams Access to raw data streams from the depth sensor, color camera sensor, and four-element microphone array enables developers to build upon the low-level streams that are generated by the Kinect sensor.

Advanced audio capabilities Audio processing capabilities include sophisticated acoustic noise suppression and echo cancellation, beam formation to identify the current sound source, and integration with the Windows speech recognition API.

Skeletal tracking The capability to track the skeleton image of one or two people moving within the Kinect field of view make it easy to create gesture-driven applications.

Skeletal tracking

Joints data Every joint gives you: X – horizontal position between -1 and 1 Y – vertical position between -1 and 1 Z – dinstance from Kinect in meters Plus Tracked Not Tracked Inferred (calculated)

What kinds of non-commercialactivities are allowed? Scholarly research, including research funded by research grants from government agencies or non-profit institutions. Classroom teaching (even if you are paid for that teaching) and investigative student projects. Professional research and personal experimentation to understand the capabilities and possibilities for the Kinect device in the Windows environment, and for general exploration of natural user interface (NUI) concepts. Exhibits and demonstrations (even if you are paid for exhibiting or producing the exhibit/demo). We envisage this restriction as temporary while the beta SDK is in its pre- commercial state. Stay tuned!
