azure-kinect-node-wrapper

A wrapper for the Azure Kinect SDK < br /> Will only work on Node/Electron Projects. Web based projects cannot utilize Native Addons.

Getting Started

This package allows developers to access the raw image data from Microsoft's Azure Kinect Device. To get started you need: -Windows 10 -Azure Kinect Device

I'd like to setup for Ubuntu 19.04 once I can compile the SDK. So far I was unable to compile on linux which is why I did Windows first.

Installing

npm i --save node_kinect

Example Result using Three.js & Electron

Example:

Steps: -Require package -Create device -Open device -Configure Mode(Color, IR, Depth) -Configure FPS(5, 15, 30) -Start Camera --Get Frame --Process Frame Data --Release Image & Camera -Stop Camera

const kinect = require('node_kinect')

let myDevice = new kinect.AzureKinectDeviceWrapper(1)

let code = myDevice.openDevice()

if(code != 0 ){
  process.exit()
}

//Configure device
myDevice.configureDepthMode(1)
myDevice.configureFPS(15)

console.log(`Start Cameras Code: ${myDevice.startCameras()}`)
console.log(`GetFrame Code: ${myDevice.getFrame()}`)

let depthData = myDevice.getDepthData()

//get specs for the depth image (mode  = 1)
let specs = myDevice.getImageSpecs(1)

console.log(`Height: ${specs.height} | Width: ${specs.width} | Stride: ${specs.stride} | ISO: ${specs.iso} | timestamp: ${specs.timestamp} | whitebalance: ${specs.whitebalance}`)

myDevice.releaseImageAndCamera()
myDevice.stopCameras()

Functions:

Create Device Reference:

let myDevice = new kinect.AzureKinectDeviceWrapper(1)

Open Device: Returns status code. 0 == successful.

myDevice.openDevice()

Configure Depth Mode:

0 = K4A_DEPTH_MODE_OFF 1 = K4A_DEPTH_MODE_NFOV_2X2BINNED 2 = K4A_DEPTH_MODE_NFOV_UNBINNED 3 = K4A_DEPTH_MODE_WFOV_2X2BINNED 4 = K4A_DEPTH_MODE_WFOV_UNBINNED 5 = K4A_DEPTH_MODE_PASSIVE_IR

myDevice.configureDepthMode(1)

Configure Color Mode:

0 = K4A_IMAGE_FORMAT_COLOR_MJPG 1 = K4A_IMAGE_FORMAT_COLOR_NV12 2 = K4A_IMAGE_FORMAT_COLOR_YUY2 3 = K4A_IMAGE_FORMAT_COLOR_BGRA32 4 = K4A_IMAGE_FORMAT_DEPTH16 5 = K4A_IMAGE_FORMAT_IR16

myDevice.configureColorFormat(3)

Configure Color Resolution:

0 = K4A_COLOR_RESOLUTION_OFF 1 = K4A_COLOR_RESOLUTION_720P 2 = K4A_COLOR_RESOLUTION_1080P 3 = K4A_COLOR_RESOLUTION_1440P 4 = K4A_COLOR_RESOLUTION_1536P 5 = K4A_COLOR_RESOLUTION_2160P 6 = K4A_COLOR_RESOLUTION_3072P

myDevice.configureColorResolution(1)

Configure FPS:

5 = K4A_FRAMES_PER_SECOND_5 15 = K4A_FRAMES_PER_SECOND_15 30 = K4A_FRAMES_PER_SECOND_30

myDevice.configureFPS(15)

Start Cameras:

myDevice.startCameras()

Get Frame: assigns frame to private frame variable of device.

myDevice.getFrame()

Get Depth Data Array:

myDevice.getDepthData()

Get Color Data Array:

myDevice.getColorData()

Get IR Data Array:

myDevice.getIRData()

Get Point Cloud Data Array:

myDevice.getPointCloudData()

Get Object of Width/Height/ISO/StrideBytes/Timestamp/Whitebalance of Image:

1 = Specifications for Depth Image 2 = Specifications for Color Image 3 = Specifications for IR Image 4 = Specifications for Point Cloud Image

myDevice.getImageSpecs(int mode)

Release All Images(Color, Depth, IR, Point Cloud) and Camera References:

myDevice.releaseImageAndCamera()

Stop all Cameras:

myDevice.stopCameras()
