I wanted games for kinect in pc, but only find develop tools :(

Hello!

Recently purchased a used Kinect 1517 on eBay to scan objects for 3D printing.

The device arrived with only it's non-standard orange plug end and an adapter it fits into that's the same strange shape. Neither of these fits into any USB port on my PC. A little confused as I figured the "for windows" bit would mean ease of connection.

Moving past that, based on my searches it seems like I need an adapter but I'm not exactly sure which? There's a ton of options across price ranges on eBay so I'm not sure which to pick and which works best with this specific device.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

I’m wondering if it’s possible to power on the Kinect just by plugging it into the wall. I don’t need a connection to an Xbox or computer, I just want the Kinect’s infrared camera to turn on. Is this possible??
