You can use multiple Kinect cameras together. Multiple Kinect sensors are enumerated
as DeviceIDs [1] [2] [3] [4] and so on. For example, if you had two Kinect
cameras, the first one would have Kinect Color Sensor with DeviceID 1 and
Kinect Depth Sensor with DeviceID 2 and the second Kinect camera would have
Kinect Color Sensor with DeviceID 3 and Kinect Depth Sensor with DeviceID
4.
Note: To understand the differences in using the Kinect adaptor compared to other
toolbox adaptors, see “Important Information About the Kinect Adaptor” on page 12-2.
For more information on the Kinect streams, see “Data Streams Returned by the Kinect”
on page 12-4. For an example that shows how to access the skeletal metadata, see
“Acquiring Image and Skeletal Data Using Kinect” on page 12-9.
