Timeline for I'd like to use gesture based input for my robot. What are the pros and cons between the Xtion Live and the Kinect?

| Oct 25, 2012 at 5:17 | comment | added | Karan Thakkar | @gpierris I havent personally implemented this but a few ways to calculate joint angles using the Kinect have been discussed in this stackoverflow question. Ofcourse, as you aptly note, it is not trivial. | |
| Oct 23, 2012 at 23:48 | comment | added | gpierris | More of a comment here as I have no experience with Xtion. There is one point though, an impediment in my work, which I don't know how it relates to your plans. By gestures what kind of detail are you looking at? I wanted to perform real-time control of a humanoid with Kinect and I could not get the rotations of individual joints. You could get the locations in 3D of each joint, however, it is not trivial how to recover relative angles. If you are planning to identify simple gestures such as pointing in different directions, or rough poses you should have absolutely no problem. | |

| Oct 23, 2012 at 22:09 | comment | added | berry120 | @jonsca Usually I'd agree, but here I've tried to keep it specific - mainly between two devices and with a specific set of categories. I see your point though. | |
