Kinect in HTML5 [closed]

Question

Kinect for Windows has been just released on the 1st of February.

Is there any good way to make it work with HTML5 games? Perhaps even somehow with the upcoming GamePad API...? Looking for ideas here, especially any with minimum extra installation overhead for users browsing the web.

Answer 1

You can also use the intrael server

http://www.intrael.com

Intrael is a small app server that provides a solid HTTP interface to the MS kinect. It processes the depth data coming from the device, tracks objects and provides several of their properties to network clients. The raw outputs from the cameras are also provided as JPEG images or MJPEG video streams. Using nothing more than plain AJAX, computer vision can now be performed directly and efficiently in the browser. From smart security cameras to all kinds of interactive surfaces, a multitude of new possibilities opens up for web development. The input process itself becomes an art. The code is very efficient, highly portable and licenced as free software.
