Kinect SDK communicating with LabVIEW bot codes?

Technical NI LabVIEW
1

This is my first year on an FRC team (and my school’s second year at all), so we’re pretty new to the block. My teacher and our lead programmer are both very fond of LabVIEW, so obviously they program the whole system the robot uses in it. However (as far as I know), the Kinect SDK does not support LabVIEW. (if I’m wrong or someone has come up with a way, that’d be nifty!)

If there is no way to do that, then has anyone figured out how to get Kinect SDK programs in (ex.) C++ to communicate with robot codes in LabVIEW?

Thanks for any/all help!

The default system does that out of the box.
The Kinect information is sent through the Driver station (a LabVIEW program) to the cRIO on the robot.
The Kinect feedback on the default Dashboard is also LabVIEW.

communicating with any SDK its possible with LabVIEW, it just depends on how much work you want to exert.
FRC has made it really easy. For projects outside of the robots, some opensource projects have also developed SDKs and therefore fairly easy.
