Having the arduino connected to the arm's servos using the SSC32 controler shouldn't be too dificult as | |||
this controller is prepared to integrate with Arduino. | |||
The Kinect would be connected the Raspberry Pi, as there is no drivers of Kinect for Arduino, but there is | |||
something called "openKinect" that allows to have Kinect acessible from Linux, and one can't install Linux | |||
in Arduino. | |||
One might ask why to have an Arduino, and not connect the Rasperry Pi directly to the servo controller? | |||
It might be possible, but one only has documentation on how to connect the server controller to Arduino ... | |||
Eventually one might be able to control the Kinect with Arduino without using OpenKinect ... | |||
The most difficult part will be to analyse the raw data that comes from Kinect and get some meaning out | |||
of it... | |||
