Is there a way to limit the area that a Kinect Azure TOP can see? I’m using the Kinect Azure CHOP to track up to 4 people. I can filter people out once it sees them, but I’d like for it not to even register someone unless they’re in a specific area. That way when someone leaves the area it stops tracking them so they’re not taking up one of the 4 slots. I’ve seen people talk about cropping the Kinect Azure TOP, but the Kinect Azure CHOP only accepts the Kinect Azure TOP, so I don’t understand how I could do that. Is this possible?
Unfortunately I’m not aware of any way to limit the detection range on the Kinect Azure. The body tracking system uses the raw depth data from the camera, so there isn’t the opportunity to crop it like some people do with the point cloud before sending it to the blob tracking chop.
There is a slight difference in range between the NFOV and WFOV depth modes, so if you’re looking for a shorter range you could try switching to the WFOV mode.
Angling the camera more downwards to limit the area might also potentially help but I’m not sure how that may affect the quality of the tracking.
