Our team is considering purchasing a NI module for our cRIO II that gives it a USB port. This would give us the capability to plug the Kinect directly into the cRIO without having to rewire or change anything. The module cost $320 and we we're wondering if it's worth paying that to have the Kinect on it. So I pose two questions. 1) Is having the Kinect as a sensor a big advantage. 2) Is it worth $320 to make it easy to connect the Kinect.
