Re: Kinect options

Like, multiple Kinects on the robot? Like more than one?

This is like having 39 wheel drive.

One Kinect is more than enough for usefulness and giving a headache to programming. I suuuuppooooooosse you could have one facing forward and one facing back, or three pointing in all directions so you can have a true 360 degree view of the field. But no. That's just more complicated than it needs to be. Or that can be done in 6 weeks. People are still trying to figure out how to connect one Kinect to the cRIO. I don't think there needs to be a rule about it.

Is there anything specific you had in mind or something???
