Freeframe plugin.. kinect on Windows??

Skulpture

Even though i'm not a windows user... i'm dying to see if this works.

its about time a stable and reliable windows plugin came into play.

p.s - I nicked the link and blogged it! Thanks @DusX :-D

LPmode

They are using the plugin with Resolume so it sounds like a FfGL plug in, and Isadora can't use those yet. I am going to give it a shot, but I've always found it tricky to get open NI running .

DusX

There is a nonn GL version of the pluging on that page as well.
good luck.

I vote we get DusX a kinect camera.... ;)
Have you tried this FFGL plugin yet on windows?

DusX

I would be happy to test.
I have used other FFGL from this site and they generally work well.

In the meantime, Mark announced support for Spout in Isadora 2.0

I have been trying to find some info on how does this works, without results

any guide is appreciated

:)

Hello!

does anyone know how to have kinect skeleton coordinates in Isadora for mac WTHOUT Ni-Mate?

DusX

@camilozk

Using Spout in 2.0 is very easy.
I will be preparing a tutorial/knowledge base article on this that will walk you thru the process.

@Armando

I have successfully used SinK.

After some time of trying (in vain) to have a decent working feed from Kinect into isadora under Win XP, I finally update myself to Win 7, and I ask myself why it took so long...

Now that Spout is available and being supported by Isadora via ffgl, I also installed "kinect for windows runtime v1.7", and I am asking myself what to do next to have kinect into isadora.

I wanted to check out the links previously posted in this thread, but they are not working.

how to proceed?

All the best.-

camilozk

now I made the kinect work following the next tutorial

I still have no idea to send kinect images to isadora via spout. :(

Skulpture

I would love to help you with this but I have only recently just got a windows machine... Ive still to instal isadora on it. It's all very new to me. Sorry!

I am sure Ryan (DusX) will help you out as soon as he can.

I couldn't find a working link to the depthcam freeframe plug in.

You might have to use some other software to get the kinect images into Isadora via Spout.

You could use Touch Designer/Processing/Max/OF etc.

Probably very very easy using TD.

I'm keen to do this with the KinectV2 but for some reason the Spout plugins aren't showing up for me :-(

DusX

I don't have a kinect so I haven't played with any of these yet, sorry.

Maximortal

Probably with vvvv you could do it. vvvv support kinect and spout too

keftaparty

Hi,

It works with vvvv sending to isadora with spout.

I have Kinect 2 working like this, even on an optimus laptop, thanks to spout & nvidia drivers updates.

@keftaparty sounds great! As I am not familiar with vvvv, is there anything special in the setup regarding spout? What kind of image do you get? How is the depth image different, than the kinect 1? Is there also a difference regarding the distance you can use the kinect 2?
