Rviz + Kinect -> Black point clouds
Hello all,
I'm currently working the kinect sensor, ros fuerte and ubuntu 12.04. From the tutorials, I start roscore, roslaunch opennilaunch openni.launch, and dynamicreconfigure the driver to register depth points. Then I can visualize what the kinect see in the rviz by running rosrun rviz rviz.
Everything seems to work fine at first, I can clearly visualize the point cloud produced by the kinect. However, shortly after that the point cloud starts to flash black (refer to picture 1) and as I run rviz longer, it just gets worse (refer to picture 2). Until it gets to the point that all I see are black point clouds instead of their RGB values.
Does anyone know what could be causing this?
Kind Regards, Martin

What does your RGB image look like?

It was some memory leak in the openni_launch. I did an update on the files and everything works great now :D
