Yesterday we saw Microsoft Xbox 360 Kinect hacked by a developer who has no intention to make the drivers open source. Today, just 3 hours after EU launch, Hector Martin (@marcan42) of Marconsoft reversed the MS Kinect USB protocol (hacked the device) and has also released the open source Kinect driver for public use.
In the screenshot below we can see that Kinect console is taking a real time pictures through it’s deep motion sense camera with frame detail getting logged in the terminal window.
We also have to keep in mind the lucrative $2000 bounty set by Adafruit for any person to provide them with open source drivers for Microsoft Kinect. Although the credit for the first Kinect hack for acquiring open source drivers goes to NUI member, but as he wants to keep them a secret, the bounty claimer might be Hector Martin after all.
Watch the demonstration of Kinect open source driver below on Windows 7 PC Linux desktop running KDE.
