Hi everyone,

I am working on a project that uses libfreenect2 to gather pcl data using multiple Kinect2 sensors. What I would really like to do is use the NiTE2 bone tracking data as well. I have NiTE2.2-x64 up and running thanks to the excellent work from the community. I would now like to pull that information into a ROS package. I found an old one that should work with openni2 and NiTE2. However it is dependant on openni2_camera which afaik shouldn't be necessary. Has anyone managed to get a ROS wrapper working with NiTE2.2 and the libfreenect2 drivers?

The work I am looking can be found at https://github.com/Chaos84/skeleton_tracker any help would be much appreciated, as I feel so close to the OS solution I want, but just one ROS related step remains.

FYI I have tried the updated version of Skeltracker, and unfortunately it isn't working well enough.

I would just like to thank everyone involved in the OpenKinect project. I have a ROS wrapper that works and provides skeleton tracking.
