All frames from Kinect at 30FPS

Question

I am using Microsoft Kinect SDK and I would like to know whether it is possible to get Depth Frame, Color Frame as well as the skeleton data for all the frames at 30fps? Using Kinect Explorer I can see that the color and the depth frame are nearly at 30fps, but as soon as I choose the view the skeleton, it drops to around 15-20fps.

Answer 1

Yes, it is possible to capture color/depth at 30fps while capturing the skeleton.

See image below, just in case you think me dodgy. :) This is a raw Kinect Explorer running, straight from Visual Studio 2010. My work development platform is an i5 Dell laptop.
