Kinect 360 (V1)

Amethyst

device plugin



## **License**

This project is licensed under the GNU GPL v3 License 

## **Overview**

This repo is a mixed implementation of the `ITrackingDevice` interface,  

providing Amethyst support for the Xbox 360 Kinect, using the 1.8 SDK.  

[The Kinect handler](https://github.com/KinectToVR/plugin_Kinect360/tree/main/KinectHandler) is written in C++/CLI, and [the plugin itself](https://github.com/KinectToVR/plugin_Kinect360/tree/main/plugin_Kinect360) is written in C#

## **Downloads**

You're going to find built plugins in [repo Releases](https://github.com/KinectToVR/plugin_Kinect360/releases/latest).

## **Build & Deploy**

Both build and deployment instructions [are available here](https://github.com/KinectToVR/plugin_Kinect360/blob/main/.github/workflows/build.yml).

 - Ensure you have the Kinect SDK 1.8 installed ([from here](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40278) or from vcpkg)

 - Open in Visual Studio and publish using the prepared publish profile  

   (`plugin_Kinect360` → `Publish` → `Publish` → `Open folder`)

 - Copy the published plugin to the `plugins` folder of your local Amethyst installation  

   or register by adding it to `$env:AppData\Amethyst\amethystpaths.k2path`

   ```jsonc

   {

    "external_plugins": [

        // Add the published plugin path here, this is an example:

        "F:\\source\\repos\\plugin_Kinect360\\plugin_Kinect360\\bin\\Release\\Publish"

    ]

   }

   ```

## **Wanna make one too? (K2API Devices Docs)**

[This repository](https://github.com/KinectToVR/Amethyst.Plugins.Templates) contains templates for plugin types supported by Amethyst.


Install the templates by `dotnet new install Amethyst.Plugins.Templates::1.2.0`  

and use them in Visual Studio (recommended) or straight from the DotNet CLI.  

The project templates already contain most of the needed documentation,  

although please feel free to check out [the official wesite](https://docs.k2vr.tech/) for more docs sometime.

The build and publishment workflow is the same as in this repo (excluding vendor deps).
