Getting Started with Kinect and Processing

Getting Started with Kinect and Processing
So, you want to use the Kinect in Processing. Great. This page will serve to document the current state of my Processing Kinect library, with some tips and info. The current state of affairs Since the kinect launched in November 2010, there have been several models released. Here's a quick list of what is out there and what is supported in Processing for Mac OS X. Kinect 1414: This is the original kinect and works with the library documented on this page in Processing 2.1 Kinect 1473: This looks identical to the 1414, but is an updated model. Now, before you proceed, you could also consider using the SimpleOpenNI library and read Greg Borenstein’s Making Things See book. I’m ready to get started right now What hardware do I need? First you need a “stand-alone” kinect (model 1414 only for now!). Standalone Kinect Sensor If you have a previous kinect that came with an XBox, it will not include the USB adapter. Kinect Sensor Power Supply Um, what is Processing? ofxKinectKinect CinderBlock Lots! Related:  `test 1023`test 1023

Main Page Getting started with Kinect on Ubuntu 12.04 – OpenNI, Nite , SimpleopenNI and Processing | ramsrigoutham The objective of this tutorial is - 1) To install OpenNI, Nite (drivers that help getting data from the kinect) in Ubuntu 12.04. 2) To set up Processing and SimpleOpenNI ( OpenNI and Nite wrapper for Processing ) using which you can get started with Kinect coding. What you need? Kinect with usb cable and a computer with Ubuntu installed. It is not recommended to run Ubuntu as a wubi installer from Windows when working with Kinect. Better install Ubuntu in a new partition and run it. 1) Installing OpenNI and NITE 1) I highly recommend installing 32 bit versions of all even if yours is a 64 bit system. Tip: Instead of navigating to different folders using cd command you can enable Open in terminal option when you right click in any folder. sudo apt-get install nautilus-open-terminal After installing type : killall nautilus && nautilus in terminal to activate the change immediately. Testing the installation: Connect the kinect and ensure that the green Led on it is blinking. . Errors in my case:

Global Health, Local Knowledge Marker Color Marker color reflects the noteworthiness of events at a particular location during a given time window. An event's degree of noteworthiness is based on the significance rating of the alert provided by HealthMap users.

Global Payroll Service Provider Gluciboat : un serious game pour accompagner les patients diabétiques de type 2 Ce jeu virtuel consiste en une croisière ludique en méditerranée. Chaque escale est l'occasion d'en apprendre un peu plus sur le diabète de type 2 et de progresser dans la compréhension de la prise en charge. Le 14 octobre, l'URPS Médecins Libéraux PACA et la Fédération Française des Diabétiques ont dévoilé une innovation, qui pourrait faciliter la prise en charge des patients diabétiques. Sur le même sujet Mais c'est quoi un serious game ? Gluciboat est plutôt considéré ici comme un outil d'éducation thérapeutique (ETP). Une nouvelle approche dynamique dans la relation patient-soignant L'intérêt, c'est que le médecin va pouvoir suivre à distance les progrès de son patient sur le jeu virtuel et adapter au besoin son suivi. Son contenu a été développé avec l'aide des Patients Experts des Associations de Diabétiques (AFD) fédérées de la Région Sud PACA et validé ensuite par des médecins endocrinologues. Voguer sur les eaux de la méditerranée pour mieux comprendre votre diabète

Making Things See Available for Early Release I’m proud to announce that my book, Making Things See: 3D Vision with Kinect, Processing, and Arduino, is now available from O’Reilly. You can buy the book through O’Reilly’s Early Release program here. The Early Release program lets us get the book out to you while O’Reilly’s still editing and designing it and I’m still finishing up the last chapters. If you buy it now, you’ll get the preface and the first two chapters immediately and then you’ll be notified as additional chapters are finished and you’ll be able to download them for free until you have the final book. This way you get the immediate access to the book and I get your early feedback to help me find mistakes and improve it before final publication. So, what’s in these first two chapters? Chapter Two begins the real work of learning to make interactive programs with the Kinect. I’m also excited to see what O’Reilly’s design team comes up with for a cover. Enjoy the book!

ExOne Announces Exerial™ Industrial 3D Printing System The ExOne Company (Nasdaq: XONE), a global provider of three-dimensional printing machines and printed products to industrial customers, announced the upcoming availability of its largest 3D printing system, the Exerial™. The Exerial system demonstrates a considerable evolution in ExOne’s machine portfolio as the new printer allows customers to engage with the indirect printing technology for industrial series production, beyond the rapid prototyping and small batch production for which the company’s other systems are currently being used. ExOne will formally debut the Exerial machine at the GIFA International Foundry Trade Fair in Du¨sseldorf, Germany, on June 16-20, 2015. “ExOne’s industrial customers are pressing for latter stage technology to address their production needs with a 3D printing system that supports higher volumes and automation for the industrial production environment.

Graphical projection Perspective projection of triangle ABC on plane Π from point S. Graphical projection is a protocol, used in technical drawing, by which an image of a three-dimensional object is projected onto a planar surface without the aid of numerical calculation. Overview[edit] Increasing the focal length and distance of the camera to infinity in a perspective projection results in a parallel projection. The projection is achieved by the use of imaginary "projectors". There are two graphical projection categories each with its own protocol: Types of projection[edit] Several types of graphical projection compared. Parallel projection[edit] In parallel projection,the lines of sight from the object to the projection plane are parallel to each other. Orthographic projection[edit] Pictorials[edit] Within parallel projection there is a subcategory known as Pictorials. Axonometric projection[edit] There are three main types of axonometric projection: isometric, dimetric, and trimetric projection. See also[edit]
