Currently OSX only, please feel free to help remove that dependency.

If you don't care for building from source, there are a couple of downloads available.

NativeKinect.init() - initialize the Kinect
NativeKinect.setVideoRGB() - output RGB video (default)
NativeKinect.setVideoIR() - output IR video
NativeKinect.start() - tell the Kinect to start streaming data to the library
NativeKinect.getVideo() - pull the latest video frame
NativeKinect.getDepthMap() - pull the latest depthMap frame
NativeKinect.getDepthMapRaw() - pull the latest depthMap raw data
NativeKinect.setLed(int) - change the Kinect LED colour (0-6)

Prebuilt 32-bit libraries are included, so no external deps.

• Xcode

Coming soon.

• More error checking
• Implement motor control methods
• Implement accelerometer methods
• Remove OSX/XCode specific dependencies
