3 D camera

Hi
I am looking for a 3D camera to read body movements for an art installation. One that I can connect to my MacBook pro and the MAX.
Can somebody give me some suggestions?
Have someone try Realsense intel?
If I get it, is there an object to connect the camera to MAX

your best bet on the mac is probably Graham's freenect externals that he posted about here:

otherwise, if using Kinect V1 you can use the jit.freenect.grab object. I believe the most recently updated version is found here: https://github.com/npnp/jit.freenect.grab/tree/master/release

and a third option, the delicode NI-mate software, which seems to support several different cameras types, has OSC output of skeleton data and spout/syphon output of depth image: https://ni-mate.com/download/
