A Nintendo board is a board which can be used as a cheap-portable device to measure COP transition in certain conditions (and with a higher rate of error in comparison to a force platform). A Kinect camera is an IR camera sensor attached to X-box console which has been used recently in research to track center of mass.
For the Kinect you just have to plug it in the computer with USB. Currently it is only possible with the old Kinect (360) not the new one (Kinect One).
Then you have two options: if you use the Kinect for Xbox you have to install Kinect SDK and Windows Developper Toolkit (http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/kinectforwindowsdev/Downloads.aspx). If you use the Kinect for Windows you don't have to install anything.
For the Balance Board you simply have to connect it to the computer with Bluetooth connection.
Then it is up to you to create software to collect informations from these devices (C++, Matlab...)
