Didn't seem to recognize my hand. Tried for a while.. But here's the funny part. I moved the couch litterally 25 cm closer and now it works perfectly. The couch is about 3.6 meters back normally.

Now i'm eagerly awaiting a new release with new gestures to try out Smile

Lol, that's interesting. Will see if there's a max distance set somewhere, think I saw that option in OpenNI somewhere Smile

Hello friend,

I did several tests and found that lack at least one window in this initial stage of reference to know how the system is capturing our gestures.

Another doubt I have is how did you do to control the mouse in the second demo you posted on Youtube, because in many ways and tried unsuccessfully.

In most work and congratulations continue.
Thanks!

I'm very sorry but I don't really understand what you mean with this. Do you want a notification when the program has initialized? When a hand is recognized it already sends a notification...

Mouse control is not included in this release, it's too sensitive to click something right

Really nice demo mate.

Do you think we can compile it with Mono for linux os ?

Regards.

Maybe I have expressed myself badly but I was wondering if it would be possible to create a window that displays real-time our gestures as exists on the Xbox 360 that is located in the lower right corner.

On the control of the mouse did not seem so sensitive when I saw the video on Youtube. Big Grin

it built just fine under mono, but i have no kinect to test with Smile

Thanks Succo

I've never played with mono yet. Will takes the time to read some doc & test this. But if there's interaction with windows drivers, I'm not sure it can work natively in linux without making some slight changes in the code.

it builds with mono, really can't test if it really works

Johnsel Wrote:Requirements:
OpenNI http://openni.org/sites/default/files/OPENNI-Win32-1.0.0.23.exe

linux version here for 32 bit or here for 64

Johnsel Wrote:PrimeSense NITE http://downloads.primesense.com/NITE-Win32-1.3.0.17.exe

there is a linux version available here

this one i guess you will have to download source and build on your own from https://github.com/avin2/SensorKinect
all we need is someone with linux and kinect to test it Smile

I've no experience with C++, but have attempted to use the OpenNI libraries to build a similar Linux-based plug. I'm having problems, however, with compiling a basic Hello World with linked OpenNI headers. It appears I'm not alone:

http://www.openframeworks.cc/forum/viewtopic.php?p=25816#p25816

Here are the errors:

Code:

/home/user/src/openFrameworks/apps/myApps/kinect_test_4/src/ni/include/XnStatus.h|54|error: two or more data types in declaration of ‘parameter’|

/home/user/src/openFrameworks/apps/myApps/kinect_test_4/src/ni/include/XnStatus.h|63|error: two or more data types in declaration of ‘parameter’|

/home/user/src/openFrameworks/apps/myApps/kinect_test_4/src/ni/include/XnStatus.h|72|error: expected unqualified-id before ‘const’|

I still haven't found an answer to the errors I'm receiving. If there are any Linux developers out there who've successfully compiled using the OpenNI libraries, please let me know!

Thanks to Johnsel for sharing his development progress and code (and for his time in helping me out - us extreme newbies are a frustrating lot!) Sorry for what appears to be cross-posting, but my aim is to recreate Johnsel's code in C++, so I think this post is relevant here Big Grin
