Very few kinect device properties

When I run the tutorial given here(the src command) http://in.mathworks.com/help/imaq/acquiring-image-and-skeletal-data-using-the-kinect.html

In the device specific properties I only get

      Device Specific Properties:
        CameraElevationAngle = 16
        FrameRate = 30

I am using a Kinect v1 sensor. Am I doing something wrong or the other properties come only in sensor v2. Thanks for the information.

There is an issue on this page.

The object creation code: vid = videoinput('kinect',1,'RGB_640x480');

creates the object for the color device. The skeleton Tracking properties shown are on the Depth device. So, the object should be created for the depth object instead,as shown below: vid = videoinput('kinect',2);

Hello Anchit Dhar! I am having some troubles:

May you help me?

Hi Jose,

Looks like you are using an XBOX 360 with MATLAB, it is not supported. We only support the Kinect for V1 sensor.

Starting release R2016a, we support the Kinect V2 sensor and the XboX one sensor.
