I am just getting ready to build my robots head (large robot).
Now that EZB is getting ready to adapt the Kinect I am wondering should I continue with that or not?
Will the Kinect also be used as a camera?
Will it be detecting the QR codes, face tracking, color, etc?
I would hate to go about and build my head and then switch it all to the Kinect.
Hate to bother you with this but just wondering?

I would imagine that you pass the data to the pc for processing. I might be wrong
Here, however, is a video contradictory to your statement
It would have been more accurate for me to say that if you wanted to use the official Kinect SDK from Microsoft, then you would need to be running Windows 7 or 8 on a PC that is connected to the Kinect device by USB.
ROS has drivers for LIDAR laser that goes for $1200 and KINECT.
Is there no way for the Kinect to wirelessly transmit the data to the PC with any kind of add on? Wireless USB hub for instance?
A further downside to the Kinect is the power demand it has, although correct me if I am wrong but isn't the stated power demand including the tilt motor too? Without motor (or requirement for moving it) the power demand is drastically decreased if I recall correctly?
Now we're Kinecting with Battery Power!
I haven't heard of anyone using wireless USB though. In theory it should work as long as both the Kinect and the PC think they are talking to normal USB. The challenge is that Kinect streams data at a very high rate. So finding a very fast, reliable wireless adapter for the USB may be problematic.
Here is the link.
And a i5 or i7 on a robot is a bit oversized in my opinion.
What's about a singlecore atom board like N270, i tiink it will work with win7 and kinect but can it handle the ez robot softwate too?

The kinect is an amazing senesor, that would open up all sorts of possibilities with software.
When will this be officially supported, youtube tutorial with it too?
Thanks

Could you connect the kinect directly to the EZ-B Controller, and bluetooth the data back to the PC? Or is there a bluetooth kinect module available? So we can write program from the point of view of the robot.
