Introduction
Page under construction... Informations on this page are not guaranteed !!
This article will show you how to get the Kinect driver, released by the project OpenKinect, to run on the APF51 board. The end goal of this page will be a system where the Kinect dumps RGB and depth images to a folder on the device. The images will be in ppm and pgm format and can be viewed on a host PC in GIMP.
I'm pretty new to the Armadeus project association, so if I'm repeating information listed elsewhere or not following the general layout, I apologize on beforehand.
Installing required components
The driver requires the libusb component to be installed on the APF51, luckily this component doesn't need to be cross-compiled but can be installed together with the Linux file system on the board.
On your host-pc go to
Syntax for editing
Command on APF
# modprobe mx27_camera
Command on host
sudo apt-get install gcj-jdk
