I'm trying to use the feed from all Azure Kinect cameras in other apps (e.g. iMotions, OBS).
Unfortunately, there is only one camera available on the device manager, under "Camera > Azure Kinect 4K Camera" while the other cameras appear under "Universal Serial Bus devices".
I would expect to see them all under "Camera". Can you please provide further details on how to solve this problem.
Also, note that:
I can see all the cameras in the Azure Kinect Viewer but cannot use the feed in other apps.
The firmware is the latest one.
I'm using a usb 3.0 port
Thanks in advance

I made a custom USB sensor device that runs on a Windows 8.1 / 10 desktop computer using the WinUSB driver (I implemented Microsoft extended USB descriptors in device firmware to automatically install the driver when the device connected).
Can I use a WinUSB device on HoloLens2? Or, if there is no WinUSB support on HoloLens2, how can I use my USB device with a “custom USB device class”?
At the moment, I do not have a hololens2, but I need to understand how the USB works on it.
Edit: I found this link: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/hololens/hololens-connect-devices#hololens-2-connect-usb-c-devices
It says that hololens2 supports the following device classes:
Mass storage devices (such as thumb drives)
Ethernet adapters (including ethernet plus charging)
USB-C-to-3.5mm digital audio adapters
USB-C digital audio headsets (including headset adapters plus charging)
Wired mouse
Wired keyboard
Combination PD hubs (USB A plus PD charging)
My device does not implement any of these classes (custom class). Is there a chance to make it work on hololens2?
I finally tested my code and USB device on real Hololens 2. The USB device works great there because Hololens2 supports WinUSB! The WinUSB driver was installed automatically (my device has WinUSB descriptors).
According to the documentation you referred, all classes HoloLens2 supports have been listed, and unlisted classes are not supported.
Could you provide more information about your business request and submit a feature request via feedback hub on new feature request to be considered in future releases of HoloLens OS and devices?
If it’s a hot impacted feature, it will be possible to be given priority to jump in the development schedule. Actually, the existing classed on HoloLens 2 are also based on user’s feedback in such way.
For how to post feedback request, you can follow this doc: Send feedback to Microsoft with the Feedback Hub app.
The Azure Kinect sensor SDK requires Kinect to connect directly to pc via usb, but it's not appropriate to me. Is it posible to use something like raspberry pi to transfer kinect sensor data and process on a remote server? Do you have any suggestions for this?
I found the Kinect sdk does not support ARM architecture(raspberry pi)，what other device can I use?
Processing the depth camera image requires GPU compute, so we don't currently support headless operation. There are some users that have successfully enabled headless operation on Linux, but it is not a straight forward path. See https://github.com/microsoft/Azure-Kinect-Sensor-SDK/issues/810 for more info.
I'm looking at prototyping a couple of solutions using the MXChip AZ3166 that require a number of external devices like GPS, Display and Comms hardware.
Does anyone know what connectors can be used with the "Pluggable" MXChip AZ3166 IOT Devkit, or if there are any breakout boards available for it?
In Mxchip AZ3166, there is a edge connector on the board that is compatible with BBC Micro:bit accessories. So you could easily extend it with external devices.
More information of Micro:Bit could be find here: https://www.kitronik.co.uk/microbit/bbc-micro-bit-accessories.html
And you could check this example https://github.com/jimbobbennett/InternetConnectedFan on how to use Micro:Bit to connect to external devices.
I am wondering if it's possible to use the Sony Sony Camera Remote API beta SDK / AddOn SDK / Smart Extension API to control action cameras functionality by my application side via BlueTooth (no Wi-Fi).
My goal is to write an extension which will mainly:
Mandatory: start and stop video saving on camera internal memory
Optional: , insert allarms, set video acquisition parameters, ecc.
Does anyone have:
the information if this SDK is the right choice to control this type of Sony device
if it's possible to reach my described goal with it or if there are any impossibilities
other related information or special requirements for controlling Sony cameras via bluetooth.
Thanks
Unfortunately you will only be able to use Wifi to control cameras with the camera remote API.
While Sony teases new camera models to customers (UMC-R10C, UMC-S3C) and mentions both API access and USB connectivity (rather than wifi) - the Sony Camera Remote API currently only mentions wifi. Is there any information on how to use those upcoming cameras? Some 'selected' developers are integrating them already (see: http://diydrones.com/profiles/blogs/sony-3dr-announce-new-enterprise-camera-for-solo) but independent developers are left in the dark.
Will the API be the same as the current Camera Remote API?
What kind of USB connection will it have. Just a USB network interface?
+1 on question/request. A lot of DIY'ers are interested in (buying and) controlling Sony cameras via USB. WiFi in 'noisy' environments is problematic.
