kinect SDK skeleton head cordinates

Question

I'm new to c#, wpf and the kinect SDK.

I have a project where I can track multiple skeletons.

Now I need to take a picture of the area around the users head. So I want to know where on the kinect's view field the top of the skeleton is located.

I don't want to use face tracking because I think its to complicated for the what I want to accomplish.

So is there an easy way to know where the head is located using only the skeleton? Preferably a set of coordinates where its located on the entire view field of the kinect.

thanks in advance!

yeah If been looking at it for a while now. Haven't found a way to extract the cordinates from the joints so I thought I'd ask here. link to page: msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj131025.aspx — Arcade

Vector location = data.Joints[JointID.Head].Position;
