    Kinect for Windows v2 sensor and Xbox One S


    Hello,

    I've bought a Kinect for Windows sensor v2 when it was released something like two year ago. I think this sensor was not compatible with Xbox One. Afterward Microsoft decide to stop selling this device and provide an adapter for the Kinect for Xbox One to
    make it compatible with Windows PC.

    I'm thinking to buy an Xbox One S console and I would like to know if someone know if the Kinect for Windows is compatible ?? I know that the Kinect for Xbox One is compatible with Xbox One S with the help of an adapter which is exactly the same as the one
    for PC.

    So connecting my Kinect for Windows sensor v2 is not an issue (USB 3.0 port on the rear face of the console), but will it work ???

    Thanks for you help!

    :)

    If the Kinect for Windows V2 sensor was not compatible with the original Xbox One, I would not expect it to be compatible with the Xbox One S as well.

    This seems to be more of a business/development-oriented Kinect sensor, intended to be connected to a Windows computer only -- not exactly the same as any other retail Kinect sensor you'll find in stores.

  5. Hey there Nixe Ahn,

    Using that adapter you, should be able to hook the Kinect Sensor up to an Xbox One S console. The

    FAQ guide
    for the Kinect for Windows v2 would suggest that when using the adapter the sensor should work on an Xbox One console, or Xbox One S console using the adapter since functionally it can be used in the reverse scenario.

    From the FAQ

    If you already own a Kinect for Windows v2 sensor, please be assured that our support for the v2 sensor remains unchanged and you can continue to use it for both commercial and non-commercial uses. If you don’t have a Kinect for Windows v2 sensor, we encourage
    you to purchase the Kinect for Xbox One sensor and Kinect Adapter for Windows—which together, are functionally identical to the v2 sensor for developing and running Kinect for Windows v2 applications. We no longer manufacture Kinect for Windows v2 sensors
    and have sold out of existing stock."

    Microsoft has consolidated the Kinect for Windows developer experience around the Kinect for Xbox One sensor and is no longer producing the Kinect for Windows v2 sensor. We encourage developers who do not already have the v2 sensor to use the functionally
    identical Kinect for Xbox One sensor and Kinect Adapter for Windows to create interactive v2 solutions and applications. The adapter enables you to connect a Kinect for Xbox One sensor to Windows 8.0, 8.1, and 10 PCs and tablets in the same way as you would
    a Kinect for Windows v2 sensor. Since the Kinect for Xbox One and Kinect for Windows v2 sensors are functionally identical, the Kinect for Windows SDK 2.0 works exactly the same with either."

    So by this information you should be able to use it without any issues, since it works in the reverse scenario.

    I hope that helps to clarify things for you. Kinect for Windows v2 sensor and Xbox One S :)

    Using Kinect v2 for Windows with Xbox One

    Hey, there! The Kinect for Windows sensor is not supported for Xbox One. You will need to use the V2 sensor to be able to go between the console and PC, if that is what you wish to do. :)

    What do I need to download onto my skypad 8 to be able to run the Xbox Kinect for my sls camera. Also when I try to open the Kinect app it says I have nothing that can read this app.

    Hello, my name is Fernando, an independent consultant. Hope you are doing great. I will be more than happy to help you with your query today. You can still use Kinect with Xbox 360 or Xbox One, but the sensor is not compatible with Xbox Series X|S consoles. The Kinect sensor is a legacy product originally released for the Xbox 360 and then the Xbox One series with the Kinect Adapter. Your computers must have Windows 11 or Windows 10. To learn more, see the "System Requirements" section below. Make sure you have installed the latest drivers from Windows Update. Center the sensor horizontally in front of the monitor or screen. https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help...-v2-setup-with-adapter#:~:text=Recommendsções %20to%20configure%20your%20Kinect,front%20of%20monitor%20or%20screen (Note ) The link being shared is in Portuguese and may require translation software to read the page content. Hope I helped, see you soon!
