Issue Summary

Hi I've got an issue with initializing Kinect V2 on Processing 3.3.7, it doesn't initialize. Everything is plugged in correctly. The Kinect V1 works just fine. I've also tested the Kinect V2 in another library (Open Kinect for Processing) and it works there fine, but for this I'm not getting any response. Do you know what might be going on? Thanks

Executed Command (if any)

kinect  = new SimpleOpenNI(this);
kinect.enableDepth();

Processing Output (if any)

SimpleOpenNI Version 1.96
After initialization:

SimpleOpenNI Error: Can't open device:      DeviceOpen using default: no devices found

SimpleOpenNI not initialised

Type of Issue

Execution error

System Configuration

Operating system: macOS High Sierra 10.13.4 Kinect V2 Processing 3.3.7

Hello! Did you install all the dependencies of:

libfreenect2
NiTE?

Ah yeah that did it. Looks like something didn't install the first time I went through that process. Thanks

Hey I seem to be having the same issue as @eccoscreen. I followed the install instructions here but I get the error from above.

Did you installed OpenNI2?

dwhit commented 5 years ago

through brew, yes. And I added the environment variables to my .zshrc

dwhit commented 5 years ago

I can run Protonect, and I also downloaded NiTE separately, and can run those samples (eg UserViewer)

Okay I figured it out. I needed to copy libfreenect2/build/lib/libfreenect2-openni2.0.dylib from the manual install folder into the SimpleOpenNI processing folder. Also set LIBFREENECT2_PIPELINE=cl in my environment.
