structure sensor on jetson tx1 (aarch64)

[fpilote]

Hi, i'm trying to use the structure sensor, using openni2 on the nvidia jetson tx1 board. i'm having trouble running the samples.

I had to make small change to get it to compile on aarch64 (arm-64) but i mostly copied and simplified the existing makefiles for arm.

can't find much info on using this specific camera on the tx1 though i can find some on the previous version of this board, the tk1.

Does anybody can help me out with this? Or better, would anyone with a similar setup would be interested in trying to make it work on their side? Thanks for your time guys.

here is the output from SimpleRead sample with verbose level = 0

using SUDO, the program is able to correctly set the thread priority :

some info on the board/os :

Hello I'm working through the same issue. How did you set verbose?

[fpilote]

i don't remember changing anything for the verbose level.

Though i realised that the verbose level is read from OpenNI.ini file (from the log output)

ubuntu@tegra-ubuntu:~/OpenNI2$ locate OpenNI.ini
/etc/openni2/OpenNI.ini
/home/ubuntu/OpenNI2/Config/OpenNI.ini

ubuntu@tegra-ubuntu:~/OpenNI2$ more /etc/openni2/OpenNI.ini
[Log]
; 0 - Verbose; 1 - Info; 2 - Warning; 3 - Error. Default - None
Verbosity=3
LogToConsole=0
LogToFile=0

[Device]
;Override=""

[Drivers]
; Location of the drivers specified by a relative path based on OpenNI's shared library or an absolute path.
; Path separator "/" can be used to be portable for any platforms.
; Default - OpenNI2/Drivers
;Repository=OpenNI2/Drivers

ubuntu@tegra-ubuntu:~/OpenNI2$ more Config/OpenNI.ini
[Log]
; 0 - Verbose; 1 - Info; 2 - Warning; 3 - Error. Default - None
Verbosity=3
LogToConsole=0
LogToFile=0

[Device]
;Override=""

[Drivers]
; Location of the drivers specified by a relative path based on OpenNI's shared library or an absolute path.
; Path separator "/" can be used to be portable for any platforms.
; Default - OpenNI2/Drivers
;Repository=OpenNI2/Drivers

After re-reading the log output from the software in my initial post, it is looking for a .ini file in current directory. I'm assuming that default value for verbosity is VERBOSE (since no OpenNI.ini file is located in the current directory)

FYI : here are my changes in the source

when I trying to make its failed I did the following changes in CommonDefs.mak

I see a lot of people are having issues compiling for aarch64. To make it easy for everyone, I have uploaded a copy of my OpenNI2 source files that have been modified to work on aarch64, cortex-A57 on my github: https://github.com/mikeh9/OpenNI2-TX1.git

Also included are samples in binary format if you want to just run them.

Thanks to jetsonhacks.com for providing the instructions on how to compile the source for TK1.

@mikeh9 I too used your repo but You didn't dump your edited one ,You dump original one there is no support for aarch64 ,kindly helps us because we are facing lot of difficult on jetson tx2 ,ni viewer doesn't seems to open,Thank you

[mikeh9]

Sorry, I just checked and I don't have the archive anymore.
