Kinect positioning
This is a really noob question, but I'm just getting started with the Kinect and SimpleOpenNI and I can't see an answer anywhere: can you manipulate the Kinect motors via Processing (I can't see anything in the docs about it, so I assume not). If not, am I going to break anything by manually moving the sensor by hand? It seems really stiff...
Thanks!

Hmm, Shiffman's OpenKinect has a
tilt()function. Can't see anything similar in SimpleOpenNI so far though...Seems to still be on the TODO here..
Yeah, Greg Borenstein's book (Making Things See) notes the same.
I guess this is a benefit of getting a proper tripod attachment.
