The Streams can be grabbed and published through the configurable grabber. Since currently the Kinect 2 SDK does not offer any configuration of streams a videomode option has been implemented through OpenCV, but it performs badly (probably because the debug library is being used? needs to be tested).

A longer test within the appartment context yielded a Framerate of around 28-31 FPS for depth + skeleton grabbing and 22-25 FPS for grabbing depth + skeleton + 720p color images. Scaling the images seems to limit the performance since it happens in the grabbing thread and converting + sending is done in seperate threads, but still all streams run at the same frame rate.

The depth image seems a bit dark but it is unclear at the moment what unit the pixel values are in.
