Kinect 2 vs Kinect Azure in TouchDesigner

Get access to 200+ hours of TouchDesigner video training, a private Facebook group where Elburz Sorkhabi and Matthew Ragan answer all your questions, and twice-monthly group coaching/mastermind calls here: http://iihq.tv/Trial

In this video, Crystal will cover the differences between Kinect 2 and Kinect Azure in TouchDesigner. How do you get one of these devices, how is the technology different, and how do we use the sensor in TouchDesigner? We will build a simple network using displacement TOP to make a fun ghost-like visual.
