Kinect - Time slices and particles
Added 2024-12-23 01:15:11 +0000 UTCThis project was designed using Kinect V2. It can also work with any type of point cloud. Make sure you have installed the correct SDK.
You will find many pre-defined custom parameters and a description inside the project.
It is important to read all instructions in the project !
How to use parameters?
- time_slices allows to manage the time of shift between the different lines;
- kinect_depth allows to manage the depth of capture of the points of the Kinect. The higher the value, the greater the captured depth will be;
- min_points_scale and max_points_scale manage the random sizes of the points of the Kinect;
- spheres_cubes_points allows to transform the points of the Kinect into different shapes (0: spheres; 1: cubes and 2: points);
- particles_res_mult allows to increase the number of particles emitted, be careful not to increase the value too abruptly. You must press the 1 key on the keyboard to initialize the new value;
- particle_life_duration and particle_life_variance define the lifetime of a particle and the variance of this lifetime. You must also press 1 to apply the change. The particle life management component was designed by Supermarket Salad.
In red you will find the nodes on which it is interesting to vary the parameters.

Such a cool project, thank you! I'm using a Kinect Azure and am getting a spray of particles from a fixed position on the screen. Like a ray of particles coming from a single point. Any ideas?
