Lots of people have been thinking of making Kinect-based art at Burning Man. I decided to see if playa dust would affect the sensor's performance. Fortunately I keep a jar of Real Playa Dust (TM) around for just such a purpose. Here's what I found...
tl;dw :
Seal all vents in the Kinect with tape. It won't overheat. Put a sheet of glass or clear acrylic over the sensors, as close as possible to the surface. Detection performance will still be decent out to 10ft or so.

thanks for doing the research and sharing. so we can't put plastic in front of the lenses... they can be clear at bman.. it's the vents to worry about right? aloha

@gabemott You can put plastic in front of the lenses so long as you make sure it's right up against the surface of the Kinect. This makes it easier to clean. Definitely cover the vents though.
