Topic: Xbox one kinect as scanner

Anyone tried using the Xbox one kinect as a 3d scanner ?
I've tried with the xbox 360 kinect using Skanect but the results were pretty rubbish.
Just wondered if anyone's tried the new kinect and if there's any improvement in quality.

Thanks.
Does it work with Skanect ?
It take it you need a PC adapter ?

I have the Kinect 1.0 for windows  that I use with Skanect It does pretty good. Now the Kinect 2.0 is out and is supposed to have better resolution.
