Extract Kinect skeleton coordinates values

Question

Hello

I would like to know how to extract the values ​​of the skeleton coordinates in vpl

example: hand left - (coord x)

Answer 1

i'd like to know that too... any help would be greatly appreciated :)

Answer 2

1. You must be using the final release of RDS4 and final release of Kinect for Windows 1.0
2. Instead of looking at the "Notifications" you must instead perform a "QueryRawFrame" and respond to the "Success" message
3. The data you seek is in the RawFrames object...

RawFrames.RawSkeletonFrameData.SkeletonData[0].Joints[JointType.HandLeft].Position.X

Answer 3

Great - After this, is it possible to display the extracted values ​​of the skeleton coordinates in vpl in a Dialog or something so that I can see it? I hope that my questions is clear.

Like this...  

Answer 4

Use the "UpdateControl" message from the Calculate activity.

If you want to get continuous updates from the Kinect you can use a timer like this.
I set the timer to 250ms initially and then reset it to 250ms after the dialog update is successful.

Once the Kinect has recognized a skeleton, the dialog will update the assigned field with the new data every 250 ms

Answer 5

I'm having some issues getting this example to work properly in VPL. What are your data connection parameters for the Kinect box and the Flexible Dialog box? Thanks!

Answer 6

I'm still unable to get this VPL code outlined above to function. Can you provide a sample file?
