Problem about turtlebot_kinect_arm_calibration

Hi all,

I'm using ubuntu 14.04.1 with ROS indigo. I met problem whey trying to calibrate my turtlebot arm with kinect, following this tutorial. The problem was shown as follows: image description I found out that both roslaunching 3dsensor.launch or freenect.launch can start up the kinect. But I'm confused about the line: Stopping device RGB and Depth Stream flush.

image description I can't understand why the kinect can't detect the checkerboard, because I got the image, and got the checkerboard under my camera. This is somewhat tricky.

image description From the source code I couldn't find out how this error happens.

Thanks very much!

I had similar issues with 3dsensor.launch. I got past that point by using openni (following Ramkumar's answer from this). However the transforms generated by turtlebot_kinect_arm_calibration are not correct for me - if you get it working could you let me know if your transforms are correct?
