Rinect

Rinect aims to be a pure ruby implementation (libusb requirement only) of a Microsoft Kinect driver. It will let you control and access all aspects of the Kinect via a Ruby interface.

Functionality is very limited right now since this project is so new, but full control is the final goal.

Requirements

* ruby-usb (https://github.com/akr/ruby-usb)

If you're running Mac OSX, this guide may help you get ruby-usb working: http://www.jedi.be/blog/2009/11/11/ruby-usb-libusb/

Current status

What we can do: * Support for multiple devices * Control the motor * Control the LED * Read the accelerometer

What we can not do yet:

• Read an RGB image
• Read a depth image
