I've considered this route, but since they don't trigger until the kinect detects another user, it's not really the solution I am going for. In this scenario, the kinect can be plugged in and communicating with FAAST, but there is no user in front of it. The result is a false positive since the two functions mentioned will return 0 and 0.0 even when there is a kinect plugged in and recognized by the system.

Is there a way to catch what vizard is printing to the console? If I had the ability to do that, then I could watch for VRPN Errors, that are being printed out.
