Singelshot from multiple Kinects / synchronize Kinects
Hi there,
I'm trying to build a portable device with a pandaboard and two kinects on it. Because of the fact that the Pandaboard just provide one USB-bus I would like to knows if it's possible to synchronize the sensors in a way that they are interlacing (pictures are alternating) or if I could trigger the Sensor to take a picture ( for the first and then for the second sensor with minimal latency). I just need singleshots (but from both sensors at the same time) after pressing a button, respectively not the full videostream is needed. Is there a way to do that with just one USB-bus?
EDIT: Due to the fact that I'm using an ARM Platform (Pandaboard ES) my computational resources are very limited I will probably use two boards and synchronize the boards system-time with crony. Afterwards I would be able to use message_filters as Mac mentioned it. Unfortunately is my publishing rate pretty bad (1-2 pointclouds per second) so I doubt that this will give me sufficient solution. Is there a way to converge the publishing time of the sensors?
I would be glad about any idea or recommendations.
Cheers
