Kinect TOP compatibility naming convention

General TouchDesigner Discussion

The user guide states: Kinect TOP - TouchDesigner Documentation

Hardware: …only supports the Kinect for Windows hardware and the Kinect 2, not Kinect for Xbox hardware.

Does this mean the Kinect 2 with the Xbox branding is not compatible? And that the only Kinect 2 that is compatible is the Kinect 2 without Xbox branding?

Not 100% positive, but I think it’s called the “Kinect XBox One v.2”, which is why it’s confusing.

Thanks jacques,
This gave me the confidence to keep troubleshooting. Not sure what the issue was, but reinstalling the.sdk’s, restarting Win11, and changing usb ports seemed to work. My error was that the Kinect2 kept restarting. :woman_shrugging:
