How to take kinect video image and depth image with openCV c++?

Question

I\'m new about opencv(c++) and kinect. I try to take a video image with c++ from kinect. I search everywhere but I didn\'t find anything. Because people are made using openN

Answer 1

In case if someone is redirected here looking for a simpler method for visualizing the Kinect depth stream, I was able to do this in the following way for the KinectV2.

Mat CDepthMap::getFrame()
{
    IDepthFrame* frame;
    Mat depthImage;
    hr = _depth_reader->AcquireLatestFrame(&frame);
    if (SUCCEEDED(hr)) {
            const UINT imgSize = sDepthWidth*sDepthHeight; //512*424
            UINT16 pixelData[imgSize];
            hr = frame->CopyFrameDataToArray(imgSize, pixelData);
            if (SUCCEEDED(hr)) {
            depthImage = Mat(sDepthHeight,sDepthWidth, CV_8U);
                for (UINT i = 0; i < imgSize; i++) {
                    UINT16 depth = pixelData[i];
                    depthImage.at(i) = LOWORD(depth);
                }
        }
        SafeRelease(frame);
    }
    return depthImage;
}
