2013-12-03 11:24:29 -0500	asked a question	Difficulties controlling Xbox Kinect with kinect_aux I am interested in controlling an Xbox Kinect motor from ROS using kinect_aux. However, when running rosrun kinect_aux kinect_aux_node i get the following message: `[ERROR] [1386112406.142298259]: No valid aux device found` After looking at lsusb output I get the following: Bus 001 Device 002: ID 8087:0024 Intel Corp.

Xbox NUI Audio Bus 001 Device 014: ID 045e:02ae Microsoft Corp. Xbox NUI Camera It would appear that the XBOX NUI Motor driver is not running. I am using a XBOX Kinect model 1473, and, after some reading, I think the openni driver isn't fully functional with the 1473 model of the Kinect. Is there some kind of work around to get kinect_aux working?
