Hello,I am working on sound source localization with Kinect on Matlab R2014b I have some troubles by running the following code,I have installed Kinect for windows SDK but Matlab is not recognizing the Kinect sound array please help me ...

1 view (last 30 days)
fs = 16000;
AudioInput = dsp.AudioRecorder(...
'DeviceName', ...
'Microphone Array (Microsoft Kinect USB Audio)',...
'SampleRate', fs, ...
'NumChannels', 4,...
'OutputDataType','double',...
'QueueDuration', 2,...
'SamplesPerFrame', audioFrameLength);
Matlab gives this error:
Error using AudioRecorder.AudioRecorder (line 174) Microphone Array (Microsoft Kinect USB Audio) is not a valid setting for the DeviceName property.

This response is probably arriving a bit late. Which Kinect are you using?
If you are using v2 you should use:
k1 = dsp.AudioRecorder('DeviceName', 'Varios micrófonos (Xbox NUI Sensor)',...
'NumChannels',4,'SampleRate', 16000,'SamplesPerFrame', 16000, 'OutputDataType', 'single');

In the "Which Kinect are you using" question: the Kinect for Xbox is not supported, only Kinect for Windows. With some of the older releases (around R2015a) it was possible to access some of the resources of a Kinect for XBox, but that is not possible in current releases.
