Revision history [back]

I also tried out a few things with the Kinect and did not get it to work on the raspi. My solution was to use Openni2 for which I wrote a ROS node

You will first need to install Openni2. I forked the repo and made changes so it would compile on the raspberry. Just run make in this repo
