Kinect

This repository contains to necessary tools to record Kinect v2 data (color, depth, IR, skeleton) and post-process to extract the skeleton. Kinect does not provide finger skeleton data per se. Mediapipe Hands framework is employed to extract the finger level tracking. Body and hand skeletons are registered in the post-processing phase. This repository is still under development. Any contributions are more than welcome!
