We are about to switch to a new forum software. Until then we have removed the registration on this forum.
Hi all! In the last years I have been developing research / private sketches and applications with Kinect 360 and SimpleOpenNI. Recently I had the opportunity to work on commercial projects, then I need to move on the Kinect for Windows sensor. Due to organizational issues, it will take a few weeks before I can get the new sensor and test it. I am a bit worried about its compatibility with OpenNI-based libraries, anybody knows whether things are going to work out fine or I have to expect compatibility issues? Many thanks!

if you want to use SimpleOpenNI 1.96
you can use Kinect SDK v1.x, but it's not suitable with the old example using SimpleOpenNI 0.27 ( this is one of some example that will you get). You need to install: Kinect for Windows SDK & Kinect for Windows Developer Toolkit which you can download from this link
but if you want to use SimpleOpenNI 0.27 . You need to install : (1) OpenNI SDK v1.5.7.10 & NiTE v1.5.2.23 which you can download from this link (2) The Kinect driver which you can download from this link - (this driver is not supported on Windows 8)
In case if you are using the newer version and encounter any error, refer to this post. Here I have disscussed changes in the newer version of the SImpleOpenNI 1.96 but I would suggest to use older version of SimpleOpenNI 0.27
