Question about
use kinect as webcam
hi , I wanna buy a kinect to try some programming on it , but what I want to know is that can I use it as a normal webcam in other applications? I mean can windows(or mac) recognize it as a normal webcam? cause I'm doing some augmented reality programming and I have to use webcam in my applications , and I want to know if I can use kinect for both purposes .
I don't believe it is possible (yet) with some drivers, although I may be wrong
