Kinect Installation and Setup on Kinetic
Is there an Openni-Kinect package for Kinetic? When I run sudo apt-get install ros-kinetic-openni-kinect I get "unable to locate package" error.

Hopefully you already found the solution. Just in case: there is no 'openni-kinect' package. The kinect related packages are 'ros-kinetic-openni-launch' and 'ros-kinetic-freenect-launch'.

Hi i am facing the same error with kinect installation with ROS kinetic.
when i use this command roslaunch openni_launch openni_launch
it says [openni_launch] is neither a launch file in package [openni_launch] nor is [openni_launch] a launch file name

have you successfully connected kinect with ros kinetic?

The command should be 'roslaunch openni_launch openni.launch'.
Tab complete is your friend: if you type 'roslaunch [package]' and then double tap the 'tab' key, it should list all launch files available for that package

Also, be aware that there is another driver package for the kinect called 'freenect_launch'. They do basically the same things, so just use whichever works for you.

I tried both openni and freenect package but still face this error like camera calibration.
