Question

Kinect with Skype for Win8 and Lync2013

by Tooru_ Aug 29, 2013 8:06PM PDT

Hello,

Now I am trying to combine Kinect camera with Lync 2013, however Lync 2013 does not support virtual cameras, thus methods like "KinectCam" does not work.
I can get video and audio data from Kinect by using Kinect SDK, but I don't know if I can give these data to Lync 2013 as an output.

Can you please tell me that is this possible or how can use Kinect camera as a webcam in Lync 2013 and Skype for Win8 conversations?

Thank you in advance.

Clarification Request

It seems to be a complicated install.

Noted at http://damieng.com/blog/2012/09/23/using-your-xbox-kinect-as-a-webcam-for-skype-on-windows it appears to be for Windows 7 but you should ask there if they have it sorted for Windows 8.
