Kinect Open Source Programming Secrets
Kinect Open Source Programming Secrets (KOPS) is the only book that explains the official Java wrappers for OpenNI and NITE. (If you want installation instructions, scroll down this page a little.) The main drawback of using the PrimeSense Java wrappers is their lack of documentation. As I explain in chapter 1, I had to decompile the libraries' JAR files, and work out the correspondences between the Java source and the somewhat better documented C++ OpenNI/NITE APIs. This is why including "secrets" in the book's title isn't too excessive :). This book covers programming topics not found elsewhere.

Armadillo is Virtual World client aimed at supporting immersive interactions. It aims to support hands free input (via the Kinect or other NUI devices) and immersive output (via multiple screens and fisheye projection). It’s purpose is to serve as a research platform for experimenting with immersive technology and also as a practical platform to be used by educators, museum curators or anyone else wishing to explore immersive interaction in Virtual Worlds.
Kinect & HTML5 using WebSockets and Canvas - Vangos Pterneas blog
Kinect defined Natural User Interaction. HTML5 redefined the Web. Currenty, there are various tutorials describing how to interact with a Kinect sensor using Windows Forms or WPF for the user interface. But what about using a web interface for handling Kinect data? Trying to combine those two hot, cutting-edge technologies, I came up with a pretty and open-source solution, which I am going to describe in this blog post.

Accessing the kinect in javascript through websockets « Aboutme – blog
Good morning all! (or evening, night, … depending on when you read this post of course). As you might know, I’ve been working on AIRKinect (as3nui.com) and I’ve got a side project AIRServer aswell (which allows you to setup air as a socket server, including websocket support). Wouldn’t it be fun, to combine these two projects in a demo, so you can access the kinect information through a websocket?
