Windows 10: Kinect V2 shuts off and power cycles constantly when trying to use it

Hi there,I bought a second hand Kinect V2 a couple of weeks ago for some motion capture work on my PC. I had the Kinect functioning fine last week, using the genuine Microsoft power adapter that it came with. I'd used it a few times without issue.Today however, the Kinect wont stay active for more than 10 seconds before it shuts off, loses connection and restarts. I've tried literally every solution from every previous thread with the same issue and nothing has worked.I've tried;-circumventing window's auto update and manually rolling back the drivers.-every usb3 port.-using a powered usb3 hub

Windows 10 1809 update creates install loop with Kinect V2?

Hello,

I updated to 1809 a couple days ago and I've got something odd happening with my Kinect V2 since then. I've had my Kinect configured for Hello logins for some time, and it's worked great. After the 1809 update, immediately off a reboot, I can get a Hello
facial login exactly once. After that login, Windows goes into a driver install cycle with the Kinect, attempting to download and configure the Kinect. Has anyone else run into this/have a solution?

Thanks!

 

Kinect v1/v2 in Windows 10 (and then Matlab)

Hi Everyone, I know it's been asked a lot of times but I can't get a clear answer so I try to ask again:

1. Is Kinect v1 compatible with Windows 10? If yes, should I buy a particular usb connector? which are the drivers to donwload?

2. Is Kinect v2 compatible with Windows 10?

My final goal is to use Kinect with Matlab (2015 or whatever works).

Thanks for your understanding!

3D Scan with Kinect v2

Hello all! I picked up a Kinect v2, the adapter, and gave 3D Scan a shot using an ASUS ROG laptop with a 1070 GTX GPU. Ran the hardware test to make sure the Kinect v2 was working,
got a possible error about USB3 chipset, but then it seemed to work.

In a well-lit room I tried scanning a mannequin and a live person. Problems / questions:

- The RGB texture image seems very offset from the depth image, both in preview and in the scanned geometry. Made it seem like the cameras on the Kinect v2 weren't aligned correctly. Any way to fix?

- I read the words "handheld mode" and "turntable mode" but the 3D Scan app interface seems so dead simple that those options are not available

- My distorted blob meshes (typically captured over 500-900 "frames" around either the circumference of an object or just a face), also had the textures offset.

Any tips / tricks?

Thank you!

Update: Had some success. I think it's all about USB bandwidth.

Tried it on a PC built with a Skylake Fatal1ty z270 Gaming-itx/ac motherboard. i5, 980 GTX.

-USB 3.1 port did not supply enough power

-USB 3.0 port had zero complaints at all

-When using 3D Scan, the preview window actually populated points in the point cloud. 30fps. Textured aligned better. Will have to practice scanning motions to get best texture coverage.
