A simple C++ class for Kinect Motor and LED

[Heresy]

I make a C++ class KinectControl that can control the motor and LED of Kinect. Also, can get the information, about current angle, motor status of Kinect.

The source code is in: https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=E0070FB8ECF9015F&id=E0070FB8ECF9015F%2113558&sc=documents, only one header file, with a simple usage example.

This is based on the post "Easy way to control Kinect motor through OpenNI", and reference the USB protocol from OpenKinect.

This class only use the first Kinect now.

I hope  that I can identify different Kinect device (mapping to xn::Device), but have no idea how to do that...

Does any one know how to do this?

Hi Heresy.

Before all, thanks for sharing the code.

I'm Trying to use it with my kinect, but in the example.cpp,
xKinectControl.Create() is always != XN_STATUS_OK.

I have been trying to understand how to know what is the problem, but
I really don't understand how to start.

I'm working in ubuntu 10.10 32 bits

I compiled it with:

g++ example.cpp -I/home/herman/Tesis/Development/Kinect/OpenNI/Include -lOpenNI

When i run it, it always shows:

libusb couldn't open USB device /dev/bus/usb/001/024: Permission denied.
libusb requires write access to USB device nodes.

So, I tryied sudo:

sudo ./a.out

but xKinectControl.Create() is always diferetnt than XN_STATUS_OK

I am really interested in rotating my kinect for some test for my
thesis project.

Thanks for your time.

I appreciate your help. Thanks in advance

sorry...

I only use it in Windows...

I am not sure if the method works on Linux.

Does it have to be targeted at x64? I am getting linker errors like this: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/openni-dev/T_CeVW_d8ig/l6ngof3sUIkJ
using Visual Studio 2010 on Win7 x64

[Heresy]

This code should work with MSVC 2010 on Windows 7 x64 with OpenNI64.lib.
