(Video) Skeleton Tracking with Kinect / OpenNI / NITE / Unity

Kinect with Unity - Skeleton Tracking with Little Red - Tinker Heavy Industries

Character is “Little Red” from an upcoming interactive story for iPad from my company (buy our products, we need motivation lol).

I did have to modify the wrapper specifically for my character and the Unity wrapper only works on Windows until we get NITE for OS X… it will be coming any day now from PrimeSense. The orientation of the joints are mapped incorrectly now, my arm goes up, hers goes down. I had the same problem when using skeleton tracking with my physically rigged elephant (super fun, loads in web player).

I’m communicating with PrimeSense to avoid duplicating efforts, but more work will be going into the Unity wrapper soon…

Isn’t the axis of your character just back-to-front? I noticed when you kicked forward, she kicked backwards and she was facing away from you when she should be facing towards you?

*Edit - ok I watched it again and maybe I’m wrong, don’t have a PC to test it on, but I’m looking forward to utilizing it.

ps- thanks for uploading the video sharing your progress!
