is Azure Kinect Body Tracking SDK supported with ARM64?

I plan to deploy body tracking on Jetson Nano, but I didn't find any successful case about Azure Kinect body tracking on Jetson Nano.

my questions:
1. Is ARM support for Body Tracking SDK released?
2. is there any edge platform suitable for deployment of Azure Kinect body tracking?

Thanks for the reply.

For the shared thread of discussion over "ARM support", I note it was closed when the feature was not added yet. I am not sure about the state.
For the shared proposal of "ARM support", I know they were planning to add body tracking feature, but do they actually complete that feature?
I am so confused, because I haven't seen anyone made it to run body tracking on Jetson Nano or TX2.

@ZongxingXie-0237 the team is actively working on body tracking for ARM64 and expect to release it later this year.

A number of Azure Kinect customers have been successfully running body tracking on embedded PCs with a suitable NVIDIA GPU.

That's great to know. Can't wait!

By the way, what kind of embedded PCs? Any pointers to those successful cases would be appreciated.

There is a python API under development for the Sensor SDK. BT SDK is planned but not started. It does not ship in the installers today however it is available on GitHub and the developer would appreciate any feedback.

I succeeded with python bindings available on github.

@ZongxingXie-0237 The Sensor SDK is open source. Feel free to improve it.

Any plans to open source the body tracking SDK? I think there is an interest in helping with the bugs introduced with the latest release as well as accelerate ARM work. I have resources that can be allocated to this.
