C++ Samples

Kinect for Windows 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8

Demonstrates how to implement Kinect for Windows in a variety of C++ samples using either Direct2D or Direct3D.

In This Section

• AudioBasics-D2D C++ Sample
  Captures audio data and displays the direction of the audio source on screen.

• AudioCaptureRaw-Console C++ Sample
  Demonstrates how to capture audio from a Kinect sensor. This is a console application.

• Audio Explorer-D2D C++ Sample
  Demonstrates the audio features supported by a Kinect for Windows sensor.

• Background Removal Basics-D2D C++ Sample
  Demonstrates how to use the KinectBackgroundRemoval API to separate people in the foreground from the background. This effect is similar to using a green screen technique to separate people from a green screen background.

• Color Basics-D2D C++ Sample
  Demonstrates capturing and displaying color data on screen.

• Coordinate Mapping Basics-D2D C++ Sample
  Demonstrates how to use the ColorImageStream to separate people in the foreground from the background. This effect is similar to using a green screen technique to separate people from a green screen background.

  Note

  Before Kinect for Windows SDK 1.8, this sample was named Green Screen-D2D C++ Sample.

• Depth Basics-D2D C++ Sample
  Demonstrates how to capture and display depth data using a DepthImageStream.

• Depth-D3D C++ Sample
  Demonstrates how to capture and display depth data using a DepthImageStream in a Direct3D sample.

• Depth with Color-D3D C++ Sample
  Demonstrates a 3D visualization (point cloud) using the ColorImageStream and DepthImageStream in a Direct3D sample.

• Face Tracking Visualization C++ Sample
  Demonstrates using the Face Tracking SDK to track and visualize a single face or multiple faces.

• Infrared Basics-D2D C++ Sample
  Demonstrates how to enable the infrared stream and use it to display images.

• KinectBridgeWithMATLABBasics D2D C++ Sample
  Describes how to perform numerical computation and visualization using MATLAB functions on video and depth data from a sensor.

• KinectBridgeWithOpenCVBasics D2D C++ Sample
  This sample shows how to perform numerical computation and visualization using OpenCV functions on video and depth data from a sensor.

• Kinect Explorer - D2D C++ Sample
  Demonstrates all the features of the Kinect for Windows Sensor, including the ColorImageStream, DepthImageStream, and SkeletonStream, to display color, depth, and skeleton data and KinectAudioSource to analyze audio data.

• Kinect Fusion Basics D2D C++ Sample
  Describes how to use Kinect Fusion for 3D reconstruction.

• Kinect Fusion Color Basics-D2D C++ Sample
  Demonstrates the basic use of the Kinect Fusion APIs for 3D reconstruction with the option of using color.

• Kinect Fusion Explorer D2D C++ Sample
  Describes how to use the individual pipeline stages of Kinect Fusion for 3D reconstruction.

• Skeletal Viewer C++ Sample
  Demonstrates Kinect NUI processing such as capturing depth stream, color video stream and skeletal tracking frames and displaying them on the screen. Not shipped in version 1.7.

• Skeleton Basics-D2D C++ Sample
  Demonstrates skeleton tracking in default or seated mode using a SkeletonStream.

• Speech Basics-D2D C++ Sample
  Demonstrates using speech recognition to cause an application to respond to user commands to move an object across the screen using simple commands like "forward" and "back".

• WPF D3D Interop C++ and C# Sample
  Demonstrates DirectX 11 Interop with WPF, including full WPF composition of DirectX surfaces. Features a variation of the Depth Basics-WPF C# Sample.
