Nov 17, 2010 Steps To Hack Kinect: The first place to start is to see what devices and “interfaces” or “configurations” are available for the USB device. The nicest way to do this is to use lsusb (Linux) or systemprofiler (Mac) which is a “list usb” program available for Linux and mac. Nov 12, 2010 Kinect Hacking Continues. On the one hand, it may be annoying to find people using Kinect on Linux, Mac OS X and Windows PCs instead of the Xbox 360. But if the Kinect. Hack your Xbox Kinect using Mac OSX and Composer. Quartz Composer is a Mac program that helps you manipulated motion capture video, and you can hack your Xbox Kinect to send motion captured data to your Mac OSX. This tutorial shows you precisely how you can use the Kinect tools to pull this off! Nov 15, 2010 Within days of the Microsoft Kinect’s release, a set of open-source drivers surfaced letting people hack it to work with devices other than the Xbox 360. PC and Linux hacks appeared almost.

Many a hacker spent their high school years picking up a few new skills in workshop classes. Whether it be woodworking, welding, or the patient, delicate skill of technical drawing, they’ve been a mainstay of secondary education for decades. However, composites are new enough that they aren’t a major feature of the curriculum. For those wishing to fill in a few gaps, [Easy Composites] have some great videos on carbon fibre techniques.
The video in question concerns the manufacture of a complex cross-section tube part, but these techniques can also apply to more complex hollow sections, like a bike frame, for example. Starting with a mold, the first step is to cut a rough template. This is then used to lay down the first layer of pre-preg carbon fibre material, and a more accurate template is made. The rest of the steps involve the production of a secure lap joint between subsequent layers, and how to properly use vacuum bag techniques on hollow parts.

It’s a useful primer on the basics of producing hollow carbon fibre parts with prepreg material. We’ve featured composites before, with this bulletproof armor a particularly good example. Video after the break.
