New "unstable" version of OpenNI & Sensor modules with MacOSX support!

[Ziv Hendel]

Hi Everyone,
Happy new year!

As a gift for the beginning of 2011, there's a new "unstable" version
of OpenNI & Sensor modules with MacOSX support!

Other new features:
* Added support for multiple sensors.
* Improved README! (much more detailed instructions...)
* Some bug fixes...

Previous version features:
* A brand new .NET wrapper and .NET samples (OpenNI.net).

NITE binaries for all supported platforms (including MacOSX) will also
be released very soon.

The source code is located at:
https://github.com/OpenNI/OpenNI/tree/unstable

We're really amazed from the awesome response of the community!
And thanks for everyone that's helped.

Ziv.

[Ziv Hendel]

Just a small update: MacOSX now uses universal binaries (both i386 and
x86_64) so please redownload if this is important for you.

Enjoy,
ZIv.

Hi Ziv,

the multi-device support which i mentioned is not complete... so did you
made further changes? If not, i did and it works find right now. But is
not commited yet... will be done today or tomorrow.

Cheers,
Suat

Thanks to everyone involved. That's great news!

Hi,

Can someone please provide instructions on how to use this latest
unstable OpenNI+Sensor+NITE with a Kinect?

Thanks

Hello, i've tried to install OpenNi and PrimeSense's Sensor on OS X 10.6.5 -- however it does't work for me.

I've used the sources from the respective github-repos (unstable branches) to compile. I've done it according to the readme-files and added the licences.

The samples (i.e., NiViewser and all SampleNi*) quit with the following message:

wilmer:Release christoph$ ./NiViewer 

One or more of the following nodes could not be enumerated:

Device: PrimeSense/SensorV2/5.0.0.25: The device is not connected!

Press any key to continue . . .

In the USB Prober app the Kinect-Sensor-Device is shown as:

 11: Xbox NUI Motor@fa141200  <class IOUSBDevice>

 12: Xbox NUI Audio@fa141100  <class IOUSBDevice>

 13: Xbox NUI Camera@fa141300  <class IOUSBDevice>

I don't have any idea what's going wrong -- is it a general problem, or is it specific to my machine?

Hints for solving this are welcome,

Chris

Hi,
I have exactly the same problem. It's compiling fine, but have this
error on execution :

One or more of the following nodes could not be enumerated:
Device: PrimeSense/SensorV2/5.0.0.25: The device is not connected!

From some other threads looks to be a driver problem.
any idea how to correct it ?

thanks,
thomas.

I would love to know also. I'm having serious trouble getting the
device "connected". I always get a device not connected error.

Thanks

[Suat Gedikli]

Hi, are you using Kinect with the original Primesense drivers? That will
not work, since the driver does not support Kinect natively. Either use
the drivers from ROS if using linux:
https://github.com/ros-pkg-git/Sensor

or the ones from avin for Windows:
https://github.com/avin2/SensorKinect

Has ROS updated to use the new osx compatible libraries?

[Suat Gedikli]

unfort. not yet...

[OopsHeadshot]

It seems as if the PrimeSensor driver has a problem.

That did it.

[Christoph Beckmann]

Could you please explain the trick? Did you use the ROS-package for OS x?

Thank in advance,

Chris

[Neo]

I'm having the same problem.

Has Anybody managed to compile a SensorKinect module for 1.0.0.25?

Thank you.

Ok, I realize to compile and make it work for kinect on OSX with last ros git package https://github.com/ros-pkg-git/Sensor/

The NiViewer example loads fine.

Is their any news about NITE on OSX?

I've downloaded:

OpenNI-Bin-MacOSX-v1.0.0.25

Nite-1.3.0.18  (Mac OS X binary)

Sensor-Bin-MacOSX-v5.0.0.25

For each I've run:

sudo ./install

However, when I try to run them I get the same error others were getting.

In Sensor-Bin-MacOSX-v5.0.0.25/Bin:

./XnSensorServer 

Starting sensor server...

Running...

Then, in OpenNI-Bin-MacOSX-v1.0.0.25/Samples/Bin/Release:

./Sample-NiSimpleRead 

One or more of the following nodes could not be enumerated:

Device: PrimeSense/SensorV2/5.0.0.25: The device is not connected!

I don't think I want to resort to playing with whatever the ROS driver is.

If someone knows how to get the Prime Sense drivers working I'd love to hear how!

[Rhys Lewis]

Have you installed libusb from macports? If you have macports
installed, it is

sudo port install libusb-devel +universal

to install it (see this thread

Yes, I installed libusb using macports.

Oddly enough, I've gotten OpenNI working through the openframeworks patch roxlu made, but the actual OpenNI examples don't work.

I'm not sure where to go in terms of diagnosing it at this point.

Any ideas?

[Amir Hirsch]

you probably need this: https://github.com/avin2/SensorKinect

i suspect the sensor driver you're using is not for the kinect, but it should be.

this is like a recurring issue.

[George Toledo]

The current scenario with drivers is probably pretty unintuitive to people, given that Avin's driver isn't with the OpenNI/NITE stuff on the OpenNI site (that I'm aware of at least), but it's fundamental in what many are doing.

George Toledo

gtol...@gmail.com

www.georgetoledo.com

[Jacob Fenwick]

Ok, I got it working using Avin's drivers.

That is fairly counter intuitive :\ especially when the OpenNI site says the newest unstable PrimeSensor Module has OS X support.

Jacob

[SteveElbows]

I think the problem with these driver issues (ie people not realising
they need modified Kinect version) is a consequence of the grey area
that exists with regards using Kinect sensor on computers right now. I
expect PrimeSense have to be very careful about these issues, and they
cannot really talk about the Kinect-compatible driver version and they
probably have to be very careful how they even mention the word
Kinect. (all they can really say is that Microsoft is a customer using
the PrimeSense hardware for the Kinect sensor). And as I mentioned
before, the term Kinect does not just mean the sensor, it is also
software which Microsoft have made which is nothing to do with
PrimeSense really.

One thing that could help this situation is if we have an unofficial
OpenNI website of some sort where we do not have to worry about issues
with mentioning the Kinect Sensor-enabled version of the driver. There
are already sites which explain what files people need, its just
people may not find these instructions until they have spent time
getting the wrong driver & having problems and having to ask for help.

Same problem here... On Win XP SP3

Context(SAMPLE_XML_FILE);" throws an exception:
Error: One or more of the following nodes could not be enumerated:

Device: PrimeSense/SensorV2/5.0.0.25: The device is not connected!

What am I missing? It worked just fine before I upgraded. The
install went just fine, and in the device driver I see all three
devices under "CL Devices":
NUI Audio
NUI Camera
NUI Motor
Thanks,
Asaf.

I tried the avin sensor and that didn't work as well...

Is there a certain install order that must be followed? If so what is
it?

[Asaf]

Hello all,

Got the problem solved. I can't find the message that lead me into
this problem. However, when I looked up how to use the motor, some
thread here had a link to CL NUI Platform stating that it is
compatible with OpenNI. So I installed the platform and then my
problems started.

Since I didn't bother to uninstall it, since I didn't suspect it
installed other drivers, every time I reinstalled OpenNI, I still got
the old drivers (probably following the problem stated in Tom's
reply). Eventually, it hit me, and after uninstalling the CL NUI
platform, and then reinstalling the drivers (with avin's Kinect port)
it worked again.

If you're thinking about CL NUI, it is NOT COMPATIBLE.

Thanks to all here that helped.
Asaf.
