    Considering picking up a Kinect V2 for my PC (need a new webcam anyway, mine is about 10 years old at this point) but I was wondering if there was any cool software or applications anyone knew of that took advantage of the newer Kinect. I know people were hacking the crap out of the first one but I wondered if the same was being done with the V2 as the technology is better.

    @colourful_hippie: There isn't. As far as I'm aware MS isn't making one. There's an adapter you can buy but it's super clunky.

    Kinect fusion V2? If you want to scan objects in 3D it's suprisingly good if a little limited.
