The most impressive vision tracking I have seen in person was Aperture's (3142 I believe). I know they have a white paper up on it, I will post a link when I find it. They used the Kinect with a Pi I believe.

I think if you're going to use the Kinect, you should use its depth sensor rather than just using it as an IR camera. The depth sensing it does is incredibly powerful (though it has some quirks too).
