I just installed ros kinetic on ubuntu 16.04.2. I am trying to run kinect v2, but I failed with several attempts

when I run 'abdulrahman@abdulrahman-ThinkPad-X230-Tablet:~/libfreenect2/build/bin$ ./Protonect', it works fine, but I can not run the following codes

'roscore'
'rosrun kinect2_viewer kinect2_viewer sd cloud'
'rosrun kinect2_bridge kinect2_bridge'

I always get this error

 'abdulrahman@abdulrahman-ThinkPad-X230-Tablet:~$ rosrun kinect2_viewer kinect2_viewer sd cloud'
  '[rospack] Error: package 'kinect2_viewer' not found'

even I tried this, but same error

abdulrahman@abdulrahman-ThinkPad-X230-Tablet:~$ rosrun kinect2_bridge kinect2_bridge _reg_method:=cpu
[rospack] Error: package 'kinect2_bridge' not found

any one can help please ?????

I solved it, its silly mistake

When I run gedit ~/.bashrc in a terminal, there is no path in .bashcr file.

I just added the following two lines at the end of the file. Note/ this is for my path source, the path must be slightly different. The data between <.....> should be different.

source /opt/ros/<kinetic>/setup.bash
source /<home/abdulrahman/catkin_ws>/devel/setup.bash
