Hello,

yes, you can do this in various ways. The easiest would probably to do this via ROS. Otherwise you will have to write an application that connects and reads the Kinect, and sends the data to V-REP via different means.

For connection to the real Kinect, you will need to write a client/server application that connects to V-REP. Have a look at the sample located in programming/windowsOnlyProjects/kinectServer. If a ROS package is available for the Kinect, this would be much easier.

Cheers
Hi there,

Could you be more spesific by saying "to write a client/server app that connects to V-REP". Is there any tutorial about it that you could share with me?
