They've invented... The kinect?

Got this ad for a "new" kids' game console. Seems like the kinect but worse and with practically no games.

Turn your Kinect v2 into a flawless Windows mouse & media controller!

I wrote an open-source app that turns it into a perfectly smooth, hands-free mouse for your PC!

Features:

  • Move the mouse by pointing, click by making a fist.
  • Scroll web pages using a two-handed gesture (emulates a Windows Pen!).
  • Say "Play" or "Pause" to control Spotify/YouTube from across the room.
  • Raise both hands to pause tracking when you want to watch a movie.
  • Dynamically maps to your height, so it works perfectly whether you are standing or sitting on the couch.

It's completely free and open source. Check it out on GitHub here: github.com/pikachu77082/KinectDesktopController

Curious if there’s an optimized solution/software for 3D Scanning using the Xbox Kinect V2?

I’m curious if anyone else has already been through this process and has an optimized open source code for using Xbox Fusion Explorer for 3D Scanning or knows of another commercial software that is capable of controlling and capturing scans using the Xbox Kinect?

I have an Xbox Kinect for XBOX ONE Model 1520. An AI is walking me through the steps to modify the Kinect Fusion Explorer code to “unlock” the sensors capabilities and resolution beyond what Microsoft pre-coded it to do for the Xbox Kinect for gaming, effectively allowing me to 3D scan objects in higher resolution which the sensor and modern graphics cards are more capable of processing than the original intent of the Kinect sensor.

So far, I have:

  1. Increased Volume Voxels per Meter from 256 to 2048
  2. Increased XYZ Reconstruction Resolution from 384\^3 to 768\^3
  3. Increased Maximum Integration Weight up to 1000

Xbox 360 S Kinect not detected but with faint red light

I have an Xbox 360 S Kinect which I'm trying to connect to my Xbox 360 S. I've tried to connect it to the AUX port at the back of the 360. When it's connected, there's a faint red light on the kinect but the 360 does not detect the kinect as being connected.

Is there any way to fix this?
