Many kinect devices and one PC

687 views Asked by At

I want to monitor 3d activity on 15x15m scene from the top.

Since kinect hanged on 5meters sees surface of approximately 4m/5m, I want to connect 9 kinects to one PC and read the signal from those devices to C or preferably python program.

Apparently there are may be two possible problems: - USB bandwidth of 9 kinects may be higher than overall USB bus speed (is there any way to disable camera and leave ony infrared on?) - software can have some limits when it comes to initializing many kinects

Is there any possibility to seamlessly connect multiple kinect devices to one PC and read the signal using openkinect or python wrapper for openkinect? If not - what would be alternative solution?

Note: I'm fluent in C and python
