Experiment with Kinect and Flash
By Andreas, 17 April, 2012

We have done a quick experiment in which we have linked the Xbox Kinect and Flash. The data from the kinect is sent to a server via a socket to the flash in real time. In our experiments, you can interact with the flash by moving your arms. When you hold still over an object, the flash will recognize that.

We used a binary c# socket implementation together with the Kinect SDK which the right computer uses to send the tracking data to the left laptop.

We used a beta version of the Kinect For Windows SDK from Microsoft. It was really easy to track a full body with it!
