win10 + kinect 1414 (v1) - "The function kinect.initDevice() does not exist"

[ghost]

When I try to run:

import org.openkinect.freenect.; import org.openkinect.freenect2.; import org.openkinect.processing.; import org.openkinect.tests.;

Kinect kinect;

void setup() { size(512, 424); kinect = new Kinect(this);

kinect.initDepth(); kinect.initDevice();

}

void draw() { background(0); }

console error: "The function kinect.initDevice() does not exist"

When I run RGBDepthTest.pde processing version 3 shows no response.

Thanks

Hi there,

I was having the very same problem - model 1414 + Windows 10

I installed all the newest version of OpenNI - http://structure.io/openni and also the 1.8 SDK From the microsoft website - the SDK 2.0 is for the Kinect v2

Also it's important to uninstall all the kinect drivers before you do this I think & also to have the Kinect unplugged while you're installing the drivers etc.

Hope this helps !

Hello I think you are missing installing the USB driver for the kinect.

The installation can be tricky

Hello,

I found something in openkinect for processing source code :

kinect.activateDevice(0);

Worked for me

Issue #20 I guess is incomplete on API alignment.

@keltroth Thank you so much mate. kinect.activateDevice(0); worked for me... but still have issue.. it is saying There are no kinects, returning null. And my kinect is connected. what might be the problem? Your reply will be appreciated ! Thanks again
