No is the short answer, a friend and programming mentor for a neighboring team beta tested 2012 software and pointed out the slow processing on the netbooks. Kinect is built to work with a fairly agile processer that can run the C# tools needed to preprocess the Kinect signal. Not a big deal for a 2012 notebook, but difficult to run indepently on a cRIO(some sort of connecting board would likely need to interface, correct me if some one else has accomplished this direct). An Axis camera has large amounts of example code and documentation(appropriate for some one with 1 year of experience), and has great ways you can adjust code to run faster while learning more about image processing.
