#XBOX 360 KINECT DRIVERS FOR WINDOWS 10 REDDIT VERIFICATION#
Obviously I’d some concerns that my Kinect wasn’t going to work given that one of the verification tests had failed, but I pressed on with some experiments. Red Mark on “Graphic Processor” and “Verify Kinect Depth and Color Streams” Testing the Kinect out with some of the samples I’ve included some links below which might be helpful.Įrror: Verify Kinect Depth and Color Streams This is very strange, as when I expanded the item to see more details, I was clearly able to see the output from the Kinect sensor, with a frame-rate varying between 20 – 30 FPS. Unfortunately one of the tests failed – “Verify Kinect Depth and Color Streams”. Under the Sound, video and game controllers now there was a new item called Xbox NUI Sensor, shown below:Īnd finally, under Audio inputs and outputs, there is a new item called “Microphone Array (Xbox NUI Sensor)”.Īfter this point, I re-ran the verification tool, expecting different results as the Kinect sensor was connected to the machine. There is a new node for Kinect sensor devices, shown below:
There were some alerts as Windows installed the drivers for the Kinect, but I was able to check that the Kinect had installed correctly by looking at the Device Manager. Using USB 3.0 is really important – I also tried it with a USB 2 socket, and this didn’t work. I plugged this into the electrical power, and also connected the USB cable into the USB 3.0 port on my PC. I set up my Kinect device in the configuration shown in the Microsoft site, also displayed below. Hopefully your machine will have green ticks against everything – in my system, I don’t have a Kinect connected yet – therefore the “Kinect Connected” test has failed, as has the “Verify Kinect Depth and Color Streams” test. If you click on Run, you’ll see a screen like the one below.Īfter a few seconds, this should change to a screen like the one below: You can see at the top of the list, there’s a component named “Kinect Configuration Verifier”, which has a “Run” button on the right hand side. If you start this up, you’ll see a screen something like the one below. You can search for this through the Windows Start menu.

The install is pretty straightforward, and if it successfully installs it will finish on the screen below:Īt this point, it’s possible to load up the verification tool – there will be a new Windows app called “SDK Browser 2.0 (Kinect for Windows)”. The first thing you’ll be challenged to do is to accept the licence agreement and click Install. When the SDK has downloaded, you double click on the executable to start the installation process. The SDK is freely available for download from this link. Step 1: Download the Kinect for Windows SDK 2.0 Fortunately it was good enough, but it could have been an expensive mistake if I bought the adapter and found my machine wasn’t up to the job.

This ships is a tool which analyses your PC for compatibility, and would have told me if my PC wasn’t good enough. If I were starting this process again, I would install the SDK ( available here) before purchasing the Kinect Adapter. There were some other system requirements listed at this link.

Installing the Kinect Software SDKĪs I mentioned above, my Kinect wouldn’t connect to a PC directly, it needed to go through an adapter. I want to write about my experiences – as usual, things didn’t work quite as smoothly as I’d have liked! Hopefully my experiences will be useful to someone else out there. I knew that the Kinect for the XBox 360 wasn’t compatible with my PC, and that there’s actually a separate Kinect for Windows device – but after a little research, I found that the Kinect for the XBox One could work with a PC, as long as it was connected through an adapter. I don’t have any games that really use the XBox One, and with some of the refinements to the console operating system, I’ve found it to be easier to use the gamepad than to use voice commands. NET, it occurred to me that I actually had a pretty amazing set of sensors sitting unused – the Kinect device from my XBox One.
