Any way of getting Kinect V2 tracking data with javascript?

Question

My question is: How to get Kinect for Windows V2 tracking data to Javascript for HTML5 games or other browser hacks.

I used the Zigfu browser plugin with my old Kinect to work with Javascript in the browser and that worked on my Macintosh too. I also know that Microsoft has released the kinect.js v1.8 for web development. There is also the node package called pgte/node-openni (find on GIT) that enables you to get Kinect data using web sockets. Problem is that NONE of these work with the new sensor.

The reason why I believe that this is possible is because I found these projects and they seem to work fine with Javascript and the new sensor but I can't extract enough information from these articles to start off development:

Answer 1

A node module has been published and that now fully works with the Kinect V2:

https://www.npmjs.org/package/kinect2

According to the author once the official SDK is installed on a Windows PC the example from the repository readme can simply run the in node. Once the skeleton data is accessible in node you can publish it through a websocket (socket.io) and read it from the browser on the host machine or another one.
