+The Microsoft® XBOX 360 Kinect is a motion controller developped by [http://www.primesense.com PrimeSense]. It projects a pattern with infrared light and calculates a depth image using a camera. It also has a color camera and four microphones. The Y axis of the sensor is remote controllable with an in-build motor. The color of the LED is settable by software as well.

+== Running depth image and skeleton data on workstation ''Rafael'' ==
+Change user of the computer to admin (Apple menu: logout user/User abmelden). Make sure Kinect is connected.
+=== Depth image in Pd ===
+# open Pd
+# open <tt>pix_freenect-help.pd</tt> in Folder <tt>kinect</tt> on harddrive <tt>Rafael Data RAID</tt>
+# open gemwin and activate the accel toggle
+=== Skeleton Data in Pd ===
+# open the terminal and Pd
+# in the terminal type: <tt>cd /Volumes/Rafael\ Data\ RAID/kinect/Sensebloom-OSCeleton</tt> OR: type: <tt>cd </tt>(+ space) and drag the folder <tt>Sensebloom-OSCeleton</tt> from Folder <tt>kinect</tt> on harddrive <tt>Rafael Data RAID</tt> into the terminal window
+# Enter. Type <tt>./osceleton</tt> (optional: If you want to change the port add: "-p" and the port number. If you want to see the picture the Kinect is tracking add: "-w"), then press enter again.
+# Because OSCeleton has some hiccups i recommend adding a "while true" loop to make sure it starts again when a problem appears. Makes the command: "while true; do ./osceleton; done"
+# open <tt>OSCeleton.pd</tt> from Folder <tt>pd-skeleton</tt> in Folder <tt>kinect</tt> on harddrive <tt>Rafael Data RAID</tt> with Pd
