I am trying to make ARTK + Tracker to work with kinect but I am having no luck.
What I am basically attempting to do is form a basic body (made of spheres mapped to the joints) and have that appear on the marker.
Unfortunately no luck and no idea how to continue. I am guessing some nasty matrix maths are involved?
Here is the patch.
Appreciate any help!
Cheers

No one?
(btw the link I referred to in the first post is this:
edit: ok I cant link it for some reason!

m8 it’s just not that good idea, because artk tracker will have one space and kinect will have another space, then to align both spaces together you would need to calibrate them… And kinect camera would be not enought for artk to work.
I can suggest you try with kinect some basic interaction first, like buttons in 3d space, rotation, align… etc.
I am using a different camera for the kinect and a different for the artk.
Maybe I wasn’t clear on what I am trying to achieve?
Maybe with a picture I can do better:

I want these models to be replaced with a skeleton like this, which is controlled by the kinect:

hi Dorosp , i get you now , i tested briefly a posible solution, you need to get the transform from the Artk plug put other transform in the middle for adjusting i had to scale to up to 60 and play with some rotation.
Then connect this transform to the transform from the kinect skeleton coordinates.
The rest it,s tweaking a bit to adjust both positions. i try to use the texture from kinect use asvideo and input in the artk plug but it did not work i guess you may need diferent camera file I,m using the LogitechPro4000 . so for the test i connect i Ps3 camera to make the artk plug work and kinect for giving me the skeleton. good luck
