Version 2 Kinect external for Max (dp.kinect2) is ready for early testing

Hi all. I've ported a majority of dp.kinect to run on the yet-unreleased Kinect v2 sensor. The v2 sensor is performing well.
If you have the early prototype Kinect v2 sensor and want to get on a private beta of dp.kinect2, please contact me at dale usethecircleatsymbol hidale.com.
There is a high degree of compatibility with dp.kinect and dp.kinect2 (and jit.openni). It is a goal of mine to make it easy for people to use my technology and migrate to newer solutions like the v2 sensor.

- Mar 15 2014 | 9:49 amCorrect. The Kinect v2 sensor hardware is designed for Windows. And therefore, the SDK and software like dp.kinect2 is also Windows only.Of most importance now, is that a person has the early prototype Kinect v2 hardware. You would have been selected and Microsoft shipped you v2 hardware.
- Mar 15 2014 | 4:18 pmI acquired a v2 Kinect sensor last week on eBay so of course it's an X-Box specific one with a very proprietary connector at the end of the cable rather than one that plays nice with a usb port.So close yet so far…

- Apr 16 2014 | 11:15 amI don't know. That sensor is designed for the XBox One. Microsoft has announced they will sell a Kinect v2 sensor for Windows PCs by summer 2014.
