Description-en: Microsoft Kinect sensor audio setup helpers
When the Kinect sensor is first plugged in, its audio input device shows
up as a generic USB device; after the appropriate firmware is loaded, the
device is reset and it becomes available as a USB Audio Class (UAC)
device.
.
Since the firmware is not redistributable, kinect-audio-setup provides
tools to download it from the Internet at installation time, and sets up
udev rules to call the firmware loader when the device is plugged in to
finally get the UAC device.
.
The UAC firmware is downloaded from the Microsoft Kinect Software
Development Kit at http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/kinectforwindows/, the
license of which can be found at
http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/legal/kinectsdk-tou_noncommercial.htm
