title: Kinect v2 on Windows 7
body: <p>So I finally got my two Kinect v2's in the mail, and was looking forward to get some raw data from them and see how much they interfere with each other.  I went to go download the SDK, and for some reason I had never noticed the Windows 8 requirements... As in Windows 7 isn't supported.</p>
  
  <p>This feels pretty bogus and unnecessary, but fine I can't do anything about that.  Before I waste some money to upgrade my machine to an OS that I really don't want, is there any way to get the Kinect v2s to talk to a Windows 7 machine (or maybe even Ubuntu)?  I don't need any of the fancy skeletal detection or anything; I just want raw <code>xyz-rgb</code> data.  I was reading about OpenNI (and their new Apple overlords), and I was hoping that by some miracle their last open source distributions would be forwards compatible with the Kinect v2s?</p>
  
  <p><strong>TL;DR:</strong> Are there any free SDKs that can interface with a Kinect v2 on Windows 7-64bit?</p>
