Kinect v2.0 for windows开发环境说明

官方文档里是这些：

Supported Operating Systems and Architectures

The following operating systems and architectures are supported:

• Windows 8 (x64)
• Windows 8.1 (x64)
• Windows 8 Embedded Standard (x64)
• Windows 8.1 Embedded Standard (x64)

Recommended Hardware Configuration

Your computer must have the following minimum capabilities:

• 64 bit (x64) processor
• 4 GB Memory (or more)
• I7 3.1Ghz (or higher)
• Built-in USB 3.0 host controller (Intel or Renesas chipset).

  If you’re adding USB 3.0 functionality to your existing PC through an adapter, please ensure that it is a Windows 8 compliant device and that it supports Gen-2. See the troubleshooting section of Getting Started for more information.

• DX11 capable graphics adapter (see list of known good adapters below)
  • Intel HD 4400 integrated display adapter
  • ATI Radeon HD 5400 series
  • ATI Radeon HD 6570
  • ATI Radeon HD 7800 (256bit GDDR5 2GB/1000Mhz)
  • NVidia Quadro 600
  • NVidia GeForce GT 640
  • NVidia GeForce GTX 660
  • NVidia Quadro K1000M
• A Kinect v2 sensor, which includes a power hub and USB cabling.

操作系统必须要达到要求，不然连Kinect v2 SDK安装的机会一点都没有。

关于USB3.0我有话要说，USB3.0 这个东西确定有点儿坑，不是任何USB3.0的设备都可以，兼容性不强的USB3.0的设备会导致无法读取Kinect v2的各种帧数据。

一般Intel 7系列以上的主板都源生支持USB3.0，通常来说接上就可以用，但有些个别厂商的主板可能还是会出现无法读取Kinect v2的帧数据的问题。

如果主板不是源生支持USB3.0的，用其它USB3.0主控芯片的主板，就有很大的机率导致无法读取Kinect v2的各种帧数据。我是用的USB3.0扩展卡来连接Kinect v2，买过两个卡都成功连接设备（USB3.0扩展卡主控芯片都是NEC 720202）。
