Primesense
PrimeSense was an Israeli fabless semiconductor and 3D-sensing company, best known for co-developing the depth-sensing technology behind Microsoft's Kinect and for sponsoring the open-source OpenNI (Open Natural Interaction) framework and its NiTE middleware for skeleton tracking and gesture recognition. The company shipped the PrimeSensor reference design and PS1080 system-on-chip for structured-light depth cameras. Apple acquired PrimeSense in November 2013 for roughly $360M; the OpenNI project and openni.org were subsequently wound down (openni.org now redirects to apple.com) and the company's developer program, website, and API/docs hosts are no longer online. Only legacy Apache-2.0 source repositories (the OpenNI sensor driver and NiTE controls) remain public on GitHub. There is no live web/REST API surface for PrimeSense.
Index entry only — little beyond a description and a link, and nothing machine-readable enough for an agent to act on without a human reading the site first.
Primesense is tracked in the API Evangelist network. This page is the human-readable profile that sits on top of the machine-readable index we maintain at apis.io.
Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — Primesense scores 7.4/100 (minimal), with a separate agent-readiness read of 0/100 (human only). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.
Kin Score
This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.

Primesense is in the network as a tracked entity. We haven't yet indexed a public API surface for it — when one is published, the artifacts, score, and agent-readiness read will appear here automatically. The source repository is where that profile is built.
