Hello.
It is possible to connect Kinect v2 without an adapter to a PC using a USB Type B and A cable and an external 12 V power supply instead of a rather expensive adapter from Microsoft.

They all rely on soldering a 12 V power supply directly to the kinect and some fun for the average Kowalski.
I am thinking about the possibility of circumventing this necessity, e.g. by cutting the cable and connecting 12 V directly to some two cables.
I don't know much about electronics, but USB type B and type A have both 9 wires. So since here and there we have 9 wires, it is hard for me to imagine that it could not be ... Well, I do not know
The first thing that comes to my mind is replacing the 5 V cables from USB to 12 V?
Work?
