Hello,

on Windows at least, there is a demo project allowing you to retrieve skeleton data from the Kinect. The project is located here:

programming/windowsOnlyProjects/kinectServer

The code is probably not too different on a different platform.
Then, on the V-REP side, use the model: Models/other/interface to kinect.ttm

Cheers
