Bridge-ing raw IR image #6

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Hi once again Tomoto,

I assume that you do not bridge any IR images from KinectSDK to OpenNI, since 
KinectSDK doesn't let users to access the data. Still, in my configuration 
(some multiple kiect devices), OpenNI reports an IR image generator, although I 
don't know if it generates correct data and which kinect it maps to. If you 
have any idea how IR stream would work with your bridge (on older and/or Kinect 
devices), I'd be happy to hear about it. 

Thanks for the feedback :) I hope my messages are constructive and help you set 
future goals for your project.

A small update: Actually, none of the xbox/windows devices report any IR stream 
when the bridge you provide is installed. Is this the expected behavior? To 
make IR images work, should I uninstall both KinectSDK and your bridge (by 
running the bat file first)?

Hi Adil,

You are right about the bridge does not provide any IR images since Kinect SDK 
doesn't let users to access to it. If you need the IR image access with OpenNI, 
you need to use the SensorKinect driver. That means you need to uninstall 
Kinect SDK and the bridge as well.

The motivation of this bridge project is to answer to "Once I installed Kinect 
SDK, my OpenNI application stop working at all. Is there anything I can do?" 
question. In addition, it is my project's policy not to do any attempts to 
bypass or uncover the official Kinect SDK because I want to make this bridge 
available to public as a legally conservative option. So the available feature 
of this bridge is inherently limited within the capability of Kinect SDK.

Hope it helps and happy hacking,
Tomoto
