Wow so soon we will be able to connect a kinect module to the EZ-B Controller and control it with the ARC software?

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

It's being phased in from the looks of it. If it's ready for the next update it'll be 1st June, otherwise it'll be one of the future updates. No date has been given yet and probably wont be, deadlines and dates are not really a part of EZ-Robots... it comes when it comes:)

What most likely would be the procedure for connecting the kinect to the EZ-B Board? Or would the kinect be connected to the PC?

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.

If you read the topic it's been mentioned. It would have to connect to the PC, the bluetooth connection would not be good enough. This means that you will need an on board PC or a reliable method of wirelessly transmitting the data (wireless USB hub for instance).
