Hi all,

I am very interested in doing object model acquisition with Kinect and RGBDemo.I do not have any knowledge on both of Kinect and RGBDemo. I have some questions on this work from scratch:

1) I am wondering which model of Kinect is used for RGBDemo? Would anyone gave any suggestions?
2) How to use RGBDemo to get an object model (mesh) acquisition from scratch?

Many thanks!

Zhou

There are "Kinect for Windows" (http://blogs.msdn.com/b/kinectforwindows/archive/2014/03/27/revealing-kinect-for-windows-v2-hardware.aspx)
and Xbox Kinect with XBox 360, or others. Which one is appropriate for RGBDemo?

Hi Zhou

Kinect for Windows is is best option.
You just have to decide which driver to use KIN4WIN or OPENNI2.

Thank you very much! I will mainly use it on Ubuntu. Is Kinect for Windows still work well with RGBDemo on Ubuntu? Many thanks!

Hi Zhou

Yes in Ubuntu you have to use OpenNI2.
You can download OpenNI2 here : http://structure.io/openni
