Tech firm gives modders a leg up.
The tech firm behind the Kinect’s camera sensor has released open-source drivers for the Xbox 360 add-on, opening the way for modders to put their own spin on the peripheral.
According to Develop, Israeli company PrimeSense has set up an NI devices, applications and middleware organisation too.
The open-source OpenNI Framework provides an API for writing NI apps and offers middleware that allows access to RGB-D sensors like Kinect and PrimeSense’s development kit PSDK 5.0.
