Questions tagged [simple-openni]

SimpleOpenNI is the Processing wrapper for OpenNI and NITE. Although it's not in a fully complete wrapper(some functionalities aren't yet implemented), it's very easy to setup and provides most of the needed functionalities(depth/rgb/ir/scene streams, skeleton tracking(without Psi pose required and multiple profiles), hand tracking and gestures, etc.)

SimpleOpenNI is a Processing library which greatly simplifies development using RGB/D sensors such as Microsoft Kinect for Xbox360 (not Kinect for Windows) and Asus Xtion(Pro and Pro Live) developed at the Interaction Design Department Zurich.

The library ships with plenty of examples and the Wiki pages are also helpful. There is also a full book covering various techniques using this library: Making Things See.
